Hi all,
I have a question regarding the time for a System Restore on my PC -- a Dell
DM061/Dimension E520 with 2 GB RAM-- and my son's machine -- a Dell XPS 410
also with 2 GB RAM.
My PC has a 250 GB hard drive, while my son's is 325 GB.
I notice that on both machines, which are running XP Home with SP2 and all
updates, System Restore takes what I think is a really long time to
complete. Each take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour to complete.
On my older Dell Dimension 2400, also running XP Home with SP2 and all
updates and which has a 40 GB hard drive, System Restore never has taken
more than 10 minutes and usually less time.
Is the length of time for System Restore related to the size of the Hard
Drive, and is 45 minutes or so an excessive amount of time for SR to
complete?
Thanks.
Alan
