hi Michael, my windows normal now.... let me share my experience :
first condition that cause windows slow was : HD 1 : plug in to PRIMARY MASTER CDROM : PRIMARY SLAVE none : SECONDARY MASTER HD 2 : SECONDARY SLAVE second condition ---> Normal now : HD 1 : PRIMARY MASTER HD 2 : PRIMARY SLAVE none : SECONDARY MASTER CDROM : SECONDARY SLAVE perhaps any expert or hardware technician will never false plug the IDE cable, but for beginner who manually install their HD this is possible to happen. thank you. yull On Sun, 11 Nov 2001 14:27:46 +1300 Michael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >Yulliansyah wrote: >> >> I want to install Mandrake 8 to my 2ND Harddisk and here's the problem : >> >> data : >> I have 2 HARDDISK with partition like this : >> >> HD 1 : 20 GB (Windows 98) >> C: FAT32 - 8 Gb - Primary - Active >> *.
