O.P. Undecided  Major slowdown + clicking
Well lately my system (you know...the nice one :rolleyes:) has been running very slowly. It's not the ram (for example - right now there are 300+ MB free). I think it may be the HDD. Once in a while I hear a loud clicking noise coming from the tower - banging on the side usually stops this, but it has me worried.


I used the "Western Digital" system check and it finds nothing wrong with the HDD, but I'm not so sure. Anyone have any advice?


Ntoe: I do regular disk defrags, I have 2 anti-ware programs installed + Norton A/V 2004 w/ current def.s.
