I'll check when I get home and see...should it be? Every thing has been running fine since like May. The only difference with my hardware is that I added a UPS to my system. And it ran fine for a week. Then I started having the 'issues'. I can get to the E drive , (the partitioned 250 gigger is drive D and E) but when I try to open a folder on it or access anything on the drve it hangs, uses 100% of the memory, and IF it comes back it gives the infamous 'not responding' error...however the other half of the drive (the D partition) works just fine...
I'm really tweaked out over this...can't afford to replace a 250, much less loosing the data...
