My last experience installing Windows is just a frustrating attempt. Try to count how many times a Win machine has to reboot after install before you can use it...
"found a new hardware.. video card" -- reboot after installing driver before win can use it
"found a new hardware.. sound card" -- reboot "found a new hardware.. plug and play monitor" -- reboot "found a new hardware.. network card" -- reboot
and then..
"change display resolution" -- reboot
"install a program" -- reboot
Your install wasn't even complete. You forgot:
visit windowsupdate.com and apply fixes -- reboot
visit windowsupdate.com and apply fixes that couldn't be installed along side the first set of fixes -- reboot
repeat the previous step as many times as necessary
visit windowsupdate.com and apply service pack -- reboot
You'll need a minimum of two such updates and reboots to have a system that's patched against known security problems.
The last time I installed Windows, without any applications, it took four hours. It took me eight to do the install for a friend... This is why things like "ghost" are widely used in the Windows world.
