I have installed the driver which corresponds to the video card (by manufacturer and model), I checked that.
I have not (nor do I know how to) tweaked the kernal parameters for the bus or drive access. I have turned off various services (using MCC) and it seemed to help, but not one in specific service was obvious. Is there a difference between turning off services and deamons? By fs, do you mean file system? I dunno, I left that portion of the drive unformatted when I installed W2kServ and let the Mandrake install handle the Linux partition. (It's dual boot, 30G Hitachi).

What I'd want to know is have you installed the proper drivers for the video card, have you tried to tweak the kernel params for the bus, have you tried to use hdparm to tweak the drive access, have you turned off any unnecessary services/daemons...what fs are you using... stephen kuhn
