Before encountering this problem, my computer boots up, reaches desktop within 1 minute.
Now it takes about 20 mins to reach desktop.
After the 20mins boot up, In "My Computer", both of the partitions in the hard disk are shown but only partition 1 has that memory bar showing free space under it while partition 2 doesnt.
I cant access both partitions and all the applications and shortcuts linked to it cant be used.
The computer works fine after i disconnect hardisk from the Mother board.
I have tried running Avast virus scan on the hard disk, but it is going at 0B/s for the past 10 mins.
I have also tried replacing the sata cable as well as using another port for it.
I would like to know what can the cause this problem and how can i resolve it.
PS. i have yet to try formatting the hard disk as i hope to recover the contents.
