    Thx...To improve computer performance and also to avoid huge time in program installations, I recommend you to Reset Virtual Memory. 

    Virtual memory is a combination of RAM and a portion of your hard drive. "When the RAM isn't enough to perform a task, Windows will temporarily store files in virtual memory, then swap them back to RAM when required."

    Steps to reset virtual memory:

    Step 1. Press Windows key + Pause/ Break key at the same time. Then choose Advanced System Settings on the left panel.

    open the interface and choose advanced system setting

    Step 2. Go to the Advanced tab, then click Settings. 

    click settings in the advaced tab

    Step 3. Go to the Advanced tab again, and choose Change in the Virtual memory section. 

    choose virtual memory section

    Step 4.  Make sure that the Automatically manage paging file size for all drives check box is NOT ticked. 

    manage file size to solve 100 percent usage

    Step 5. Select your windows drive (the hard drive or partition that has Windows installed on it – usually C:), and enter an Initial size and Maximum size for your virtual memory:

    select c drive and change the memosy size

    • Initial size: This value varies, depending on your computer. If you're not sure what value to use, just enter whatever the number is in the Recommended category. 
    • Maximum size: Don't set this value too high. It should be about 1.5 times the size of your physical RAM. e.g. A PC with 4 GB (4096 MB) of RAM should have no more than about 6,144 MB virtual memory (4096 MB x 1.5).

    Once you've entered your virtual memory values, click Set, then click OK and reboot your computer. Later check performance and that should be improved much better.

    Hi Swarnakamal, I would like to know the source of installation for the game? Was it directly downloaded from actual game developer website or ***** and installed to the computer? Or using CD/DVD? Also plz share the speed of your Internet...

    If I am not wrong, you copied the game Setup installation file to the new Acer computer HDD and then installed the game by clicking the setup file. Am I right? Also please let me know the actual size of the game.

    YES, you are right. The actual size of the game is near about 30.5 gb after installing and 25 gb before installing.
  • Even if the game installation is large (25gb), it is not normal to take 8 hours to install! Even more on a notebook with these settings! Make sure the disk is at 100% in the task manager!

    Thank you Swarnakamal for all shared info. Yes 25Gb game shouldn't take 8hrs to install. Apart from this game installation, I request you to please share your computer performance.

    i tried this method but still now it is taking much more time
  • Let windows automatically manage paging and make sure your computer has disk problem at 100% by pressing ctrl + shift + esc!
