I've noticed that ever since my upgrade to the Chaintech ZNF-150 + AMD 64 3400+ that I have been booting up slower. I noticed this after installing Norton as well. As before it would boot up (seriously) in 10 seconds. BUT when I had my AMD 2600+ with an Epox 8RDA+ That had Norton as well and it booted up faster. Is this because of the dual channel? Because I know my Epox had it, but I don't see anywhere in my manual that the ZNF-150 has dual channel. I'm kind of annoyed that my system sometimes runs slower and boots up slower than I remember before the upgrade. I just have a feeling it's because the dual channel thing isn't supported or something wierd about Norton. Oh and I have used the SiSoftware and tested my cpu and it is running correctly.. Here is a pic, my cpu is a Newcastle
I disabled Norton and I noticed that everything runs faster than lightning. How can Norton stoop my performace so much. I mean now it runs a lot faster as if I actually had an upgrade. Much faster before the upgrade. Wierd to think Norton affects this computer a lot more than it did before. I have yet to try Norton disabled when I boot though.
