slow hard Drive Tuesday, July 1, 2008 at 2:55 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by c_tarapacki (5 messages posted) My SATA hard drive is running slowly I had Seagate Sata and it gave troubles. It booted slowly ran slow and and turnded it self of when it wanted. So I changed it. Now I have Wester Digital SATA and it is running slowly and boots slowly. but doesn't turn off. I had a message saying S.M.A.R.T problem when I boot. I have two hard drives. One as a back-up. And when I boot from it it works nicely though I don't have many programs installed. When I boot from it I see that the hard drive is working like it's suppose to. It's fast. I can move files from one hard drive from one disk to the other. I would like to see if it could be the Motherboard at fault. But If I change that and it still will do that then there is no poit in waisting money. I have Wester-Digital hard drive Sata Asustek Mainboard p4p800SE Windows XP service pack 2 Thank you Chris Responses to this message: re: slow hard Drive (Spexx: Tuesday, July 1, 2008 at 3:18 pm) All messages in this thread [show all] slow hard Drive (c_tarapacki: Tue, Jul 1, 2008, 2:55 pm) re: slow hard Drive (Spexx: Tue, Jul 1, 2008, 3:18 pm) re: slow hard Drive (c_tarapacki: Fri, Oct 24, 2008, 4:29 pm) Reply or follow-up to this message Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows XP Discussion Forum
