Okey, I've just installed a 250 gig hard drive into my system... instead of having it hooked up to the motherboard, it's connected to some controller card all by itself... I still have my main hard drive (C) and my old download drive (D) on the same riben that goes into the mother board.
well... after puting in the new drive, installed the correct drivers (well... actully, I was unable to use the drivers provided by Western Digital because XP alreadly put in the drivers for it -_-') the new drive was in, then also pop in that tool kit thingy disk to format the new drive.
Now whenever I boot up, I get some message saying "Dedeciting |/-|\-|/" or something like that (you know, a line spening around after the word "dedecting" or whatever) then it shows the XP boot screen for a second or 2 then takes me to my welcome screen and sits there for a min. after that min. it takes me into Windows and I have to wait another 2 mins or so before all the programs loads up...... it wasn't like this before is there anything I could do to speed up the processed some?? like add more RAM??
