I finally got my new PC but I have an issue that's bugging me. When I have been copying lots of files to my main drive or any other HD intensive operation like installing software, mp3s I'm listening to judder and the mouse cursor momentarily freezes or if im copying gigs and gigs the system slows down so much that i just cant do anything else.

I am running xp pro x64 and have a mirrored raid setup using two 320 gig drives. I have 4 gigs of ram and a core2 6600. I've never had this problem on my 2 year old other pc. I'm sure there is some kind of configuration problem but ill be damned if i know what it is. I would appreciated any help you guys can offer.

One of the possible reasons is CPU overheating. So I'd recommend you to monitor the temperature of your CPU using this program and check you fans. Also you may have restriction on maximum temperature of CPU in your BIOS, so maybe you'll need to change it .
