Just thought I'd share - get a fast HD, and a lot of issues disappear :)

I will also share..I have installed D2007 several times for various issues...when i did not have my anti virus and anti adware programs disabled. my installation would constantly stop and tell me it failed to download packages constantly. I could click through and install but it was a real pain.

Anyhoo, if I remember to disable security programs, the installation runs straight thru like a breeze. Can't claim 7 minutes but I did not have to interact until the end.
