What to look out for when installing Vista?

PermaChanged · 10 Dec 2007 at 18:56

Hey guys,

I just got my new 500gb HDD and a copy of vista home premium. At the moment I'm partioning the 500gb to put all Music and other media on.

The Vista install will be going onto 2x80gb Samsung SATA 2 drives in Raid 0.

I'm just wondering if theres anything special I should change in advanced options etc when I come round to installing vista.

Thanks
Jonny

Looks good to me.

There aren't any advanced options that I can even recall seeing...it's all fairly straightforward.

I don't think there's anything to change other than drive partitions and your country.

Well that installed disturbingly quick!

I went downstairs to make a sandwich and a coffee and when I came back upstairs maybe 20mins later it had formatted my partition and installed vista! how come so fast?
