DVD Drive weirdly making my computer lag...
Okay, I'm having a very odd problem.
I have two hard drives on my computer and a dvd-drive. When I remove the DVD drive from my computer, Vista boots normally. However, if I add it back in, Windows boots up EXTREMELY slow.
It happened a while after the installation of the second drive.
However, even if I remove the second HD now, leaving only the first HD and the DVD-drive, it STILL lags on bootup.
My boot priority is set to hard drive first, then CD-DVD drive. There's no CD in the drive, either.
The CD-DVD drive itself isn't broken, I have tested it with new CD-DVD drives and my computer still lags on bootup.
1st drive is named C:
CD-DVD drive is named D: (since it came second)
2nd hard drive is named E: (since it was most recently installed).
Thanks.
