Hi-
I have the following:
Elitegroup Chipset
Athlon XP 2000+
384 MB PC133 SDRAM
40 GB WD HD
I just installed XP on the 40 GB WD HD, which is primary master on my system. The current configuration with hard drives (which the 40 GB has a 5GB behind it dual boot) has worked before, although I dont have an OS installed on the 5GB yet.
Anyway, the system hangs a lot. It does all its fast processing at one time, and then slows down, and then goes fast, and slows down. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
I tried putting in more RAM (to little avail, and I know 384 MB is sufficient), I tried changing the IDE Cable..... any ideas?
thanks.
