I'm having problems with the windows installer taking a long time installing something. I tried installing a couple programs and the installer box would come on screen, nothing would be happening for the longest time. Then, another box would come up saying something like retry or cancel. I would hit retry, then it would fill some in the progress bar... etc etc etc. Eventually after a couple hours everything was installed. This shouldn't be like this. I remember when I built this computer in March 2014, everything was fine, then in June 2014 this seemed to be the problem. Rebuilt it in July and now 3 monrhs later it seems to be happening again. The first time I accidently did something to try to resolve this and I had to install all my non windows programs on again... so I just did a fresh install and started over. I don't want to do this again. I have most of windows on a 1tb Samsung SSD then Four (4tb) Drives for other things. F: Drive for programs, the others for backup, Video and Music.

- This is a first build for me. My last computer was a Dell Dimension 8200 from 2000. I have had no problems with this new build. Started up from day one. I'm sort of proud of myself for this.
I am Looking for a nice 28+ inch 4k Monitor. Any suggestions?
