I had a power outage that caused a drive die - it was a backup drive
and it seemed my other two drives - one for XP and one for Win7 were
working fine. But today, after trying to run ACRONIS backup on the
drives, my XP started to work incredibly slow - after rebooting, it
takes about 10 minutes to start up, it takes a while to run any
programs etc. I tried to reinstall the mobo drivers and that seems to
speed it up when I am installing the drivers (it asks me to reboot and
I say NO). My computer seemed to run better at this point, but when I
reboot, it runs slow again. I can't even use ACRONIS because it
doesn't seem to work while my computer is acting this way. Any ideas?
Also, XP does not recognize my other drive any more, although my WIN 7
drive does work upon dual boot and when in WIN7 I can see the other
drive, but when in XP, the WIN7 drive does not appear. Strange huh?
