I have a new system, recently installed and old 120GB IDE hdd, now Windows XP takes forever to boot up, the drive its set up as slave. The IDE cable is shared with a DVD+-RW drive. I have another 250GB SATA drive, in wich the o/s is installed. I need to make this system boot up at a decent speed. Can you help me please?
EDIT: When I disconnect the IDE drive, the system boots up normally. The drive has some music and files in it, no o/s.
PC specs:
Athlon 64 X2 3800+
2GB DDR2
DVD+-RW Drive
Asus Nforce4 motherboard
Windows XP SP2
