Hey all,

At work we are having a problem which you may be able to help us with.

we have 30 PC's with the following configuration
i5 2.8ghz 4GB ram 1TB disk
(Windows 7 32bit proffesional Fresh installs)
all updates & drivers installed

the trouble we are having is some times the PC will take a very long time to open simple prtograms. for example you press Device Manager 2 minutes later its still not doing anything


then if you press it again it will open 2-x number of times you pressed to open the program.]

Internet explorer 9 opens then dont respond, yet sometimes its fine?

these pcs have been running for about a month (restarts have been done) so i dont think its indexing.

any suggestions would help :)

Do you have hard drives set to spin down after 20mins in the power options?

Until I changed that to never spin down it was kinda sluggish for me.
