vagu Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 There is a delay in accessing the directories and files(windows XP). When I select “My Computer” to view the hard drives and directories, there is a delay and the flashlight comes on and swings from left to right during this delay. After few minutes the names of drives are displayed. Does anyone knows why this delay? This delay happens every time when I try to access hard drive.Thank youVagu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shark007 Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 (edited) Cd's and DVD's are usually the culprit here.Removing the media from optical drives should solve this problem.shark Edited November 24, 2005 by Shark007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suryad Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Are your drives really full? How many hard drives do you have? Do you have the latest drivers for your mobo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
