    Windows switched C: and D: partitions won't boot now

    Thanks for the help. It wasn't seperate drives causing the issue, it was somehow that my secondary partition on my single drive got the C and D Reassigned I think, not sure how it happened but it seems to have corrected itself. Thanks again!

    Windows switched C: and D: partitions won't boot now

    Well, out of nowhere this time I hit the power button and it suddenly booted correctly showing my storage partition as G.... as it was before. I have no idea why it suddenly worked. I am going to back up files I need and put the other hard drives back in to see if it still will boot correctly.

    attn: computer experts... failing hard drive

    i would really try get data back instead. i only had success with that after trying other programs. i've read many others have had the same experience. just boot from your normal drive with the failed drive hooked up as a slave. as long as it detects it, i bet you will be able to pull some stuff

    2+ minute boot time - 2.5ghz venice

    it doesn't seem to be any services, as sometimes it will boot very quickly. I will try when i get home tonight though.. also I haven't installed much of anything except anti-virus, so I kind of doubt that is the problem.
