Slow installation for indesign CS4 trial

[d***@adobeforums.com]

I have downloaded the trial issue for indesign cs4 and try to install it on my PC, it is really slow, it is about 10 hours now and the install progression is only at "Adobe Output Module", it is about 25% of the total installation if I look at progress bar.
My computer is an Acer Aspire 7720, Intel core duo, cpu 2 GHz, RAM 3 Go and 250 Go of Hard drive.
I have followed the instruction to disabled the Antivirus program and Firewall too. So how to speed up this install, it is the first time I encountered that kind of problem.

You definitely have a problem. The installation for ID alone should be less than 20 minutes on a typical system. I did all of Design Premium in under an hour two days ago.

My guess is there may be a problem with the download and one of the files is corrupt. I'd try downloading again.

Already done, that is why I have wrote this message to get help on what do I have to check on my system. I don't understand what is misconfigured.

I run Windows Vista Home Edition

Denis,

I didn't say you had a configuration problem, I said I thought there might be some damage to one of the files.

You didn't say which version of Vista Home, but I presume you have Premium, not Basic, because the latter should not have passed the system profile checker. If you ARE running Home Basic, forget it -- it won't install.

I'm not a Vista user, but I'd suggest you also disable UAC for the installation, and log in, if you can, using the Administrator account.

Ditto what Peter says. I'm not sure what the installer will do with
Vista Home Basic, but it's certainly not supported.

As for UAC, it's an intrusive PITA.

I have vista home premium, and administrator account.
I try actually to re-install the all install.
I have forgot to tell that the profil system verification takes a long long time, the progress bar don't move and after 1 or 2 hours the install windows will load.

Excuse me but what is UAC and how to disable it, and also what means PITA

[P***@adobeforums.com]

User Access Control and Pain In The Arse.

There's something going on with the system if the profile check is taking two hours. How much free space is left on the hard drive?

Is there some sort of minimum-required configuration you can boot to, similar to running MSconfig in XP and turning off startup programs and non-Microsoft services? It really sounds like there is still something running in the background that is conflicting. You are certain that anti-virus is not running? I'd also be sure that no browser toolbars are loaded, nor any instant messenger or music programs, and have a local printer, rather than a network printer, set as the default and online.

I has to uninstall my antivirus and everything had worked fine, completely installed and actually running.
Thanks for your help
