If I am a non-admin user, whenever I try to install an msi, it takes over a minute for windows to figure out that I am not an admin user and ask for the admin password. It doesn't matter what the processor speed is - it is always about a minute from a 1.0GHz Atom to a 2GHz i7 to a 2.7GHz i3.

I'm just wondering why it takes Windows that long to figure out something so simple and pop up an admin login window.
