Two Questions: Windows Explorer, Mouse/Keyboard after Standby
I have clean-installed Vista RC1, on it's own hard drive (the primary
master). I have two other hard drives (D and E, the primary slave and secondary slave), which contain data in NTFS format from my previous XP installation. When I load Windows Explorer in Vista and navigate to these drives, they load EXTREMELY slow. It is not unusual for me to click on the D drive, and then wait up to a minute for the green bar at the top of WExplorer to fill and the contents to be diplayed. Then, when I attempt to navigate to a folder, the same thing happens. Any suggestions on how I can reduce this load time? Secondly, I am having problems with my keyboard and mouse both after bootup and after coming out of standby (or whatever the default low power mode is when you leave your computer on). Occasionally when I bootup (maybe 1 out of 4 times) the (PS/2) keyboard doesn't work, so I must restart which fixes the problem. Also, when coming out of standby, my (USB) mouse no longer works, again requiring a restart, OR for me to unplug it and plug it back into the USB port. Any fixes? Thanks for any info. |
