Installation problem

[Ant]

I have just received Windows XP Home Edition and
I ran into the following problem while installing.
Every time Windows XP prepares installation, Windows
XP ends up stalling at the 69 minute mark. XP always
stops installing at this point. What should I do?

Hi Ant,
Could be that your network connection time is set to low. I assume that you
are on phone line dial up.

To change it, go to Start/ Network Connections/Dial up Options
In Idle time before hanging up, click the arrows to set the amount of idle
time before a client hangs up a connection.
Rob.

Huh? This person is *installing* XP, not surfing the 'net.
