Solve : Slow response from Partition? |
|
Answer» Sys info: System: Compaq Memory: 512MB Hard DRIVE: 40 GB Seagate OS: Win XP SP2 Prob: Have recently replaced my 20GB seagate with 40GB seagate, made 3 Partitions 15 + 11 + 11 and installed Win XP Sp2 on C (15 GB)... By the time my PC was ready-to-use, i noticed that whenever i double click on either of the drives (i.e. C, D, E) it takes more time to get in there (6-9 Secs!!!) than usual. However, once it gets in... it takes normal time to open directories/subdirectories What's the matter?Dear you have repartation your Hard Drive and your C: must be 5 to 8 Gbs or else your system is being slow as it's make your partation with win Xp or a copy of DM2000 i hope this will work it out take careWell.... i still doubt if that is the cause of prob.... Hey do you ppl agree wid kasrawis? Are you sure you are free of malware?It could just be you Hard Drive going into Sleep mode , and it takes a few seconds to warm up before you can Access it, but once its running it runs smooth?it is good to ask from others but i'm sure it's the same problem i told you cos i face 5 times this problem with compaq systems i myself using compaq first ask for about 10 ppl and then make partation cos you may lose your data ok take care @GX1_Man Of course i am sure... how come a newly installed HD (on which the OS has just been installed can get infected?) panboy Well... i dont know as i have 4 the 1st time HEARD about this thingy... I hope you r not talking about the "POWER Options" under control panel.. if so please note i have already ensured to choose "Never" By the way Can changing disk access mode can help me out? what do you ppl say?So once inside a drive it goes at normal speed, but if you were to close your window and go back onto my computer and double click the harddrive again, you still get the delay, right? Make sure you have no cd in the drive.Is indexing service turned on or off on this machine ? ? Is the Explorer Window set for thumbnail view ? ? Have you had any stop errors or blue screens lately ? ? If more than 5 or 6 of these occur Windows might have DEFAULTED that drive to PIO mode which is noticeably slower... patio. 8-)Quote @GX1_Man Ummm, did you say this somewhere and I just missed it? |
