When you say having the hard drives on for a little bit, you mean after shutdown, right?.... If so... this might actually be a *good thing*... many of you may be familiar with the issue that several of the MS OS' have on particularily fast machines - That is that the computer shutsdown and powers off before the harddrives get the chance to finish writing their cache back to the harddrive. A Common symptom of this is a corrupt registry (particularily the sofware hive) since it is something that is constantly being read from/written to and hence is typically kept in the harddrive's cache...
O/T: Iroc409... <to-be-taken-semi-seriously> are you going for the highest post per second record or something?... or just trying to inflate the post-count? your name is all over the main-page... in one instance you replied to the same thread multiple times within minutes of your previous post... what's up with that?... from what I've noticed the people here dont seem to care so much about post count but rather care more about the quality and manner in which people present their ideas - something I dont want to see change.
PS: Strikethough BB code should be added to the forum.
