Hey there,
I've just built myself a new pc, consisting of:
Opteron 146
DFI Lanparty SLI-D
2 gig Gkill PC4000
x1800xt 512mb
WD 320gb sata II hd
I'm having a problem when XP starts booting (on the screen with the scroll bar), it just sits there for over 40 secs not doing anything at all. The hard disk light is lit up, but there is NO activity. After 40 or so secs the hd starts grinding away and windows loads up as normal.
I have tried reformatting as I thought it mght be driver related, but even with no drivers installed it STILL does it.
Would anyone have any idea why this is? Its annoying the hell out of me.
Ta in advance.
