[dba-Tech] Slow transfer rate

Well, kinda.  There's a repair offered first which takes you to the dos
prompt.  That wouldn't take my password.  I t6hen rebooted and the second
time told it to do an install.  It then came to a screen where the options
were repair or clean install, where I chose repair.  It did a bunch of
deletes of existing files, then started doing what looked like an install,
took 3 hours.  In the end I had all my programs and stuff but the disk now
worked.

Are you talking about a repair install?

I just ran a Windows XP Pro "fix" of my install and that fixed the problem.
Took three damned hours though!!! Not a speedy thing.
