Hi, I have just upgraded my computer to:
Processor: Q6600 Quad core 2.4ghz
RAM: Patriot 2GB PC-6400 C4 Extreme Performance
Board: ASUS P5K-E
GFX: PowerColour 2900Pro 512MB GDDR3
PSU: Corsair VX 550W PSU
OS: Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit
Additional HDD*: Western Digital WD5000AAKS 500GB SATA II 7200RPM 16MB Cache
*I have not installed the second hard drive yet, I am using a 200GB samsung SATAII
These parts seem to be working great, the performance and speed when playing games is crazy and I almost had a heart attack when I seen how well After Effects was running! But installing these programs, booting windows, loading programs is extremely slow. I am sure I have something configured incorrectly, but my knowledge in this area is very limited. There are 6 sata drive connectors on my motherboard, I have used SATA1 and referring to the manual this is where I should put the boot disk. Also, in my bios I have selected "Configure sata as RAID" from "configure sata as IDE"
Any ideas? My fingers are crossed its something simple
