Howdy, i have a few problems which im pretty sure are all intertwined because they all started happening at once.
Programs that i haven't used for a while will take a few minutes to load. This includes exe files such as game updates and for the game updates it seems that the bigger the exe file the longer it takes to load. However once i have loaded it the next time i run it it will load up quickly. The programs still load up quickly even if i restart/turn off comp :S.
The result of this is that when i play CS:S i get huge choke and then i drop out and Steam shuts down. Generally the more times i reload steam the longer it takes to shutdown or for me to drop out. I have no idea what is going on and i have done the obvious things like defragging and regmechanic.
I had this problem before and formatted and it was all working sweet for a while and then suddenly one day it started again.
The only major difference the last two formats had were i started using NTFS file system for windows. I thought the problem could be that i had mixed partitions of NTFS and FAT32 on the one HD however that HD is all NTFS now and im still continuing to have the same problem.
