    O actually while your hear i have a question and its mildy on topic.

    About harddrives you know the speed the 7200Rpm. What does that do as recently my upgraded computer keeps slowing down for no apparent reason and then fastenes up again also it takes ages to boot windows. Could this be a slow or faulty harddrive?

    Cheers.
    Sorry i probably should have made a new post. If so just tell me to and it will be done.
