What is the first thing that comes up after 5 minutes? Is it asking if
you trust this program? Next time, for fun, right click on the
installer and select run as administrator.<br>
<br>
I have some programs (don't remember if AP is one of them) that seems
to wait forever before the installation starts. Run as Administrator
seems to get past that. Not sure why and I don't think it happens all
the time but it didn't happen with Vista and it does with 7. The disk
activity you mention before the installer starts makes me think your
anti-virus is taking its time scanning the installation files. If you
trust them, maybe try turning off AV during the install and see if that
makes a difference.<br>
<br>
Neither is a solution but might be a clue.<br>

I hope not, as it was a brand new HD and MB a month ago. No other app
I've installed recently has exhibited this problem, and since I've
installed AP at least three times now on this hardware, it' s been
written to a few different disk sectors.<br>
