Hi there,
I hope that someone could help out -
I have a problem with Windows Installer - when installing, the installer seems to hang, and after 5 to 10 minutes of wait, the installation finally starts and continues "normally", like on other "regular" machines.
Actually, this Google Groups post describes the exact 2 problems that I have on my machine. One of the is related to the Windows Installer - if anyone can help out with either problems - that could be great.
Thanks in advance !

Looks like Windows Instalelr is trying to access the network. Setup may be searching all drives for a file, which might include the network. A log file might reveal additional information (msiexec /i your.msi /L*v C:\log.log)

This is a log of the UNinstall of MSI Cleanup Utility. I don't see a delay at the start, but at the end:
At 16:41:46 the execute sequence has finished installing and is switching back to the UI sequence.
It immediately displayed the Exit dialog, which stayed on screen until 16:52:56. Did you have wait 11 minutes before being able to click the Finish button?

I don't think so.
I've probably done something else at the time and didn't notice it finished the setup.
So what else could cause this ? I realize that the log doesn't show of a particular "stop" in between installation steps, but the fact still remains that it takes me quite a while to process installations and removals.

BTW: I've already tried unplugging the network cable while installing - it still takes a while.

Problem solved.
My account was defined in an old domain which is probably not trusted. A newly created account in a "more common" domain did the trick.
