apps
Sys is running 'like treacle' re booting takes 20 min, safe mode about 8 min
The sys is not compromised by nasties
Event Viewer shows nothing, HW devices show no problems, C drive 33% free
A disk check on C ends at second phase with unable to complete msg, Seatools
basic test passes, extended test, well I ended it after 4 hours as it only
completed 10% (160gb drive)
sfc completed without errors, but took 1+ hours
Using raid 0 on Adaptec hw card, verifying the mirror, well its run for 9
hrs & only completed 18% - last time I ran this process it completed in 3
hrs or so.
Running Task Mngr, App Tab, when I start an app, eg OE newsreader, the app
loads, Tsk Mngr shows it loaded, not responding, then an OE pane is
populated shows running, then not responding until next pane loads
Outlook itself took some 5+ mins to load completely, excel/word takes 1+
mins
Nothing odd in Performance tab, no heat issues
Nothing updated / added since last good config
