System pauses for ages when click or right-click properties on large files

I have searched and searched for reports of my problem, but cant find a thing.

Ever since I installed Windows 2000, I go to explorer and click on a large file (with intention of copying
or deleting it for example). Then the disks whir for ages and my system goes really slow.
It takes even longer to look at the properties.

Anyone seen this before?

It doesnt happen all the time or with every file, but it is bloody irritating.

Please help.

When this situation occurs, check to see what process or processes are
showing the highest CPU usage in Task Manager.

Query our Knowledge Base for "high cpu" and "system process"
This is an article I found that may be applicable.

Its the "System" process, every time. Nothing else.
 
Thanks I searched the KB, but nothing related appeared.
