Ok,
I'm not sure what's causing this little glitch of minor slowdown I'm experiencing with XP Pro at startup that I'm experiencing. I recently built a new system, and got it all installed and running...after downloading all the critical update patches for the computer and downloading an odd Athlon K7 driver patch (anyone have a clue on this one?), my system slows down once I reboot into XP and try doing simple task like opening the System area within Control Panel, or when I try to connect to the net, it can take a long while (about 2 minutes) for the connection window to appear at all.
I've already installed the latest VIA drivers also, here are my system specs:
Epox 8K3A+ KT333 motherboard
256MB 2100 DDR-Ram
40 Gig Western Digital HD
Visiontek GeForce 3 Ti 200
SB Live! 5.1
if anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
