Re: Hard Drive Spin Up/Down Constantly

Well,....what does that tell ya about vista! That its causing a lot of
problems for everyone. When will they be comming out with a fix? Or a service
pack
I don't understand why you say "original problem is not stated" Have you
not read the threads? What do you need to know? I'll send you what ever you
need to help me & the others & MICROSOFT so they can use the info for a fix.
I am just at my end here. I just won't my computer to work,..... so I
can.....I have lots to do. I know nothing is ever 100% not even with XP but
it does do much better then vista. I will hand it to microsoft when it come's
to the lay out of vista. "I like it" When looking at files how they move for
you is awesome. You don't even use the slider.

But..............
My Boot preformance, standby, system preformance, drivers & more are all at
a very unhealthy state. I have lock ups & slow start up. The hard drive is
makig a loud noise grinds & pops. It comes & goes. Sometimes I thank it's
going to blow up. And I am not kidding. I keep getting errors for super fetch
& much more. I am sure their is a work around or something. But anyway if you
can help me please let me know what you need to see & know from my computer.
I send it to ya! via email.
Thanks
