My Computer windows...

Re: My Computer windows...

Is it a recent ailment or is it from the start? Which processor do you have? How much RAM? Does you machine have a RAID configuration? How many logical and physical drives do you have?

Have you played with the size of your page file recently? Do you regularly defrag your HDs? When you defrag, does the degrag shows fragmented system files (usually shown as immovable)?

Have you installed your chipset drivers (which include IDE/SATA drivers)? DO you have multipe toolbars installed in your explorer (e.g., Yahoo! toolbar, Google toolbar, etc).

When you double-click on "My Computer" and you are waiting for the folder view to open, does the floppy disk drive LED lights up? If it does, open you antivirus program and disable "scan floppy on access" or similar option. If you don't use FDD, disable it from the BIOS.

There could be other reasons as well, including some of the ones already mentioned above. Happy fixing!
