Hey this is a question for people who own world of warcraft.How long did it take you to install Wow onto your Pc? cus im downloading the trial version first just so to check the game out first,see if its really that good!. Its installing the whole game which is 3.16 GB memory (i couldnt believe it was that much!!!) and its taking forever!!. I have fast broadband connection and a fairly updated PC so just let me know how long it took you to install the game,thanks.

Well, I installed off of discs, so it took about a 20 minutes. But if you're just installing from a single file it shouldn't take as long. I'd guess 10-15 minutes.

You'll probably also have to download an update when the game first starts up as well. Im not sure what version of WoW, they put on the website, but as long as its 2.0 or better, it should only be a relativly small patch.
