Did you defragment it or did you DEFRAGMENT it?
Ever since Windows Defrag ruined one of my disks I have been using O&O Defrag, which works a LOT faster (2 hours for a 80 GB partition on a SATA disk, filled with 79 GB of data) and does much better optimation.
Get a trial version of O&O Defrag (which is the only defragger I can recommend, sorry) and defrag your disk, THEN try again.
Also, you might want to create an image of your disk with a working, freshly installed Windows on it, so that you can get back to the "fast" state easily.
Cheers,
Sebastian

If the speakers are internal (I'm assuming they built-in to the monitor), and you want to use them, then no you do not need any cables. Unless I misunderstood your question. Now if you want to hook up a new pair of speakers, then yes you would need cables.

yes they built in to the cpu. but it doesnt work

Hmmm... I never heard of speakers being built-in to a CPU. Could you please send me a link to your computer's manufacturer/model web site? I can't find your model anywhere. A HP Pavilion 061, right?
Also, have you checked your settings and drivers in Control Panel -> Sound and Audio Devices?

hi every one,
I am studying the impact on perfomance while a migration of a 32 softawre to 64 bits.
what are the points which must be taken in considertion to do it?
can you please give me links that can help me.
thanks

Off the top of my head, only thing I can think of is watching out for portability issues... It wouldn't hurt to turn on warning flags in the compiler to see how the migration will go.

What are the best applications for perfoming tough, hard read and write testing of a hard drive to make sure it is 101% perfect (well as perfect as a hard drive can be..)? Ive been playing around with Seagate's SeaTools, but id like some program which also writes, and verifys the written data, many times..
Anybody know of such applications?
They must be like boot disks/CDs etc
thanks!
(hope this isnt posted many times, got 501..)

The staff of the German computer magazine c't (www.heise.de/ct) has written a good benchmarking tool for windows (h2benchw), which is available here:
c't Software Tools, Freeware (neither PD nor OSS)[^]
As for boot disks: Look into the EBCD (Emergency Boot CD) and UBCD (Ultimate Boot CD) projects, they both offer benchmarking tools as well.
Cheers,
Sebastian

The German tool seems nice, but im looking more for bad sector detection, and i have some hard drives which im extremly sure are bad, but so far all programs that just read havent detected any faults. The hard drive tool from UBCD is good too, but it only scanned.
I wonder if there are any ones that really read, write, compare and stuff..

My computer, like most, has a whole bunch of USB ports on the back, and a couple on the front. They have all got something plugged in... printer, keyboard, mouse etc...one of them has my wireless broadband connection gadget...
Every now and then, Windows (XP) pops up a messagbox saying:
This device can perform faster...will function at reduced speed when plugged into a non-HI-SPEED port.
It then lists all my port for me, telling me to plug it into a HI-SPEED one, which it tells me are listed in bold:
+ SS PC to USB Enhanced Host Controller
+ USB Root Hub (8 ports)
D-Link AirPlus G DWL-G122 Wireless USB Adapter(rev.C)
Unused port
Unused port
Unused port
Unused port
Unused port
Unused port
Unused port
What the b*h* is it going on about?

It means you plugged a USB 2.0 (high speed) device into a USB 1.0 (low speed) port.
|
|
|
|
|
I know it's saying that, but not why is it saying it.. All the ports listed are the 8 that belonging to the "USB Root Hub (8 ports)", which is Hi-Speed. And why is it telling me that 7 of them are unused when they are not?
Or have I got the wrong end of a big stick here? (I don't understand hardware...)
Ta...

For some reason, the driver doesn't think they're high speed ports. Perhaps you're missing an update to the chipset drivers for your motherboard??

another posibility would be that he has a usb2 hub plugged into a usb1 port on his mobo.

True. Maybe even the other way around too.

Hi,
I bought a COM port programming book I understood some lessons and others I couldn't.I bought also a USB programming book.But I don't know how to get use of it.I mean what is the next step after buying the book to make usefull projects especially for business(gain money for a project you made).May any one explain to me how to make these books useful?.I made a project using the parallel port before but it was not usefull enough to make a business project and it was not complex like the com port and USB port programming.
I am too late but i will never give up

 You have to understand the material to make any use of the information in the books!
If you don't understand the material, you've got some more research to do, don't you?

I think it will be better to determine a goal for reading the book before reading it.At least what kind of projects I could make after reading these books?Then there will be a reason and a desire to finish the book.
I am too late but i will never give up

You bought the bloody things, didn't you?? Or are you in the habit of spending money on books and just putting them on the shelf, never cracking the covers?

That depends on what's in the books!!

You are right...it depends on what's in the book.I only wanted to ask about the projects that could be made depending on the USB and COM ports programming books in general .Thank you for responding to my questions .

Basically you need an external piece of hardware to talk to to use either of those. Unless you're working for a hardware company you're unlikely to need to talk directly to the device instead of using a defined API that does the lowest level for you. Going forward RS232 support on mobos in on life support and fading fast, any new development is almost certain to be USB. That said, last summer, I did write a com port program to talk to a blackbox that the vendor wanted an exorbitant amount of money for a very badly behaving control app. In that specific instance, in house turned out cheaper and better, but that's not a very common situation to be in.

First,
I am happy to find some one who have experience in this field.
Second,
Even Iam not working in a hardware company I hope to work in that field.May be because I was studing a bit about this field in the university.Can you tell me about a device which I can start building a USB program on?
You have mentioned 'Going forward RS232 support on mobos' .May you tell me what do you mean by mobos?
