Windows install, I have to be doing something obviously wrong

Hi guys.

Just finishing up my latest build and its that time again for a windows install ( clean )

I've gone through all the process as usual however it's stuck at 0% on expanding windows files!!

Any ideas what this would be occurring. It's never happened to me before and I've installed windows many times on various machines over the years.

It's been like this now for around 20 mins and this is the third time of trying to install

Ta very muchly

Nope it's from disk

Back again.

Ive got it all loaded up, converted to Win 10. All was easy enough to do.

Ive installed all the drivers needed for my new board etc.

What I'm seeing now is from switch on to desktop is taking about 2 mins.

I'm using a sata 3 intel ssd and my old system was like lightning. Am I doing something wrong again or is boot times delayed on x99 systems or is it because of the 32gb ram?

Cheers
