technical difficulties with hdrive
Im having a problem with my friends computer. He asked if i can try to make it perform better. (couldnt even boot up before i formatted and re-installed xp pro.
Performance is terrible. I suspect its the hard drive. The hard drive at times makes alot of noise and it takes longer now to boot up. I defragged and did checkdisk but performance is still low. I went to pcpitstop and it said serious performance problem
with c drive. Uncached speed is at 1.15 mb/s. (way too low pcpitstop says).
Im telling ya's, this hard drive sounds bad, really bad at times.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
