VISTA Install Extremely Slow

[djc_2005]

Hi everyone

I have a new PC that i built but when i go to load VISTA onto it the install takes forever
It boots into the install and the part that takes forever is when its loading up the language selection and which version of Vista you have - i use the same disk at work on HP workstations and they fly through this part
I have a QX6850 processor and 8GB of Ram with a 1TB WD HDD running on a ASUS P5N-T DELUXE MOBO

This litteraly takes 20+ minutes to get to the hard disk selection which doesnt seem quite right to me....

Any suggestions anyone?

TIA

Is there anyway around it??

Im using a Sony DRU-190S if that makes any difference
