I had to do a system recovery.
It's stuck at "Installing Windows" with "34 minutes left" for the past hour.

What should I do? Everything was going just fine until this point.

The install CD is still in the drive and I haven't touched anything.

Provide some useful info, make/model of PC, are these the OEM provided
recovery disks? Procedure your using to recover, reason your performing
recovery.

OK it's working.

I just ejected the CD rebooted and put the CD back in once the recovery
asked for it.
The installation finished and everything is fine.

Thanks for your suggestions
