Maxtor Trouble

[Java624]

I recenly did a PC pit stop test and everything was a-ok exept for this

Drive C has an uncached speed of 20 megabytes per second.

For comparison, systems with the same CPU and clock speed as this one have a speed of 40.82 MB/s.

Any Ideas How to fix this?
Thanks

Hi Java624,

I am very surprised ! I have exactly the same model of hard drive mounted as master with a CD Rom drive slaved on the same ribbon.
I run Windows 2000 Pro and three weeks ago I made the same test Pcpitstop. And everything was OK.
I had a look at the link you posted. I suggest you to run the Pcpitstop without Norton being activated. Before I made my own test, I switched off both my anti-virus an firewall.

Hi,

Ok I ran it without the Firewall on...But not the AV let me turn that off and see if I get the same result....

I also wanted to point out that I recently reformatted so I might not have something installed
