I changed hard drive,using ghost,went from 5 gig to 28 gig,used ghost and it worked fine.But now everything all pages on net or offline takes forever to open,anc can hear the drive runing and running.Then after couple minutes on IM(yahoo),my recieving messages might take 2 or 3 hours ,then all of a sudden,they all pop up at the same time.Any solution or advise appreciated
thanks

Boot from the XP CD and go past the recovery console to the install page, select REPAIR EXISTING INSTALLATION. It will repair the installation but you will have to do all the MS updates again. Good luck.
