Greetings, Ill try to make this short and sweet.. I recently have been getting poor performance out of my hardware. I thought it was windows, but here I am (at this second) installing windows xp again.. and yet its still acting up.. its been about 45 mins and its still copying the setup files.. something has to be wrong here. When I installed windows xp in the past it basically only took 3 mins to copy over the setup files during windowsxp installation.. so Im thinking its hard drive troubles.. I also thought it was overclocking issues.. but again i tested it without any overclocking.. same problem... so any input that could help me determind what the problem is? Thanks

AMD Athlon 2000+ CPU (oc to 1.84ghz)
ATI Radeon 9200 128 meg
Chaintech 7VJL1 Motherboard
Maxtor 40gig 4200rpm (Master)
Western Digital 80gig 5400rpm (Slave)

If you need anymore information on my hardware just ask

Thanks again
