Hello, ok, this has been annoying for a while but I thought I could live with it. I really think that I can't.
I recently built a new PC and think the specs are semi-decent and should give me good performance.
Now, once everything is loaded, my PC is relatively fast, however, loading the OS is what takes forever. It takes XP over a minute and a half to load to a state where I can use my computer.
I did make sure I had no crap programs running on the background and it still takes a long time. Please help me.
Now we go to the specs part.
AMD 5000+ brisbane @ 3.1GHz
2x1GB crucial ballistix ddr2-800
gigabyte m57sli-s4 mobo
decent cooling (air)
decent PSU (antec 420W)
EVGA 8600gts
1x320gb Seagate (OS is here)
1x500gb WD (for storage, idk if this one is faster)
*Just a note: I had a dell that had worse specs and would load XP in like 30 seconds, I pretty much have the exact same programs installed so I know I'm not running crap on the background.
Please give me suggestions, this is very annoying. I am actually about to reinstall XP on this machine....maybe I should install XP on the other HDD just to see if that makes a difference?
ok
now to wait for replies, thanks!
