Hi, I've been having nightmare with PC boot times ( up to 1 hour long) and extremely limited usage after boot, due to 100% disk activity.
I have tried everything possible with windows itself, so today tried to test HDD with HDDtune Pro.
Question,
#1 - Are these low read speeds?
#2 - If so, can problem within Windows 7 Pro 64 cause them?
#3 - Can a virus? I have scanned and believe to be clean.
HDD is a single Seagate SATA3 ST31000524AS 1Tb, 32mb cache (blue)
and is installed on intel SATA3 controller, which has worked great for 2 years.
