I have just built a nice new AMD64 3500 system and there is one problem left that I am pretty sure is hitting performace really hard.
Although I have one SATA drive at present my system is installed on a partition on the Master IDE drive (I have two IDE drives). Anyway when I access the IDE driver from Device Manager and check the speed the master is running UDMA 5 (=100) and the slave is running UDMA2 !!!
Correct me if I am wrong but aren't they all slowed to the lowest speed aren't they? It sure looks like it when I use hibernate mode and come out of hibernate it is slower than my Athlon 3000+!
I have ordered a couple of spare IDE 80 cables to try changing that, but can anyone else help or offer any other advice.....
thanks guys
