When I am installing or even uninstalling a program on my Dell Inspiron 9100
running XP Pro, installation just freezes for about 10 minutes and then
coninues. Depending on the size of the program I'm installing, sometimes it
can take over an hour to continue. I'm not too sure but I think it might
happen when the installer is creating a System Restore point.
The most noticably common time that it seems to be happening is after the
"Windows is preparing for installation (or whatever)" bit and before the
installation actually seems to start. During this time the InstallShield
window is only visable on the Taskbar and if I click on it, nothing happens
and nothing appears. The only thing I can find relating to it in the
Processes window is something called IDriver, which very rarely uses any CPU.
I'm really hoping that someone can help me as it's been like this for about
3 months and I cna't find anything relating to it anywhere! HELP ME
