At my College we got Hp computers, with 2.66gig, only 533fsb, 256mb -16mb share for onboard graphics. We bring our removable cage with a hard drive in it. My cage is a lianli, with ata100, wd 160gig 7200rpm, 8 meg cache in it. The cdrom appears to be a Samsung 48x. Basicilly not a very "top of line computer", but what amazes, me it took 8mins to install windows xp, I never seen this before. Even with the same hard drive on intel p4 3.0c with 512ram.
Can anyone give me some cluess why this might be the reason why its so fast.
Thanks
