I just recently build a new fast machine. I notice my AMD X2 6000+ is very cool, and under low load. My NVidia 8800GTS has good temps, and under little load. My 4GB of memory is under low load.
Everything will be ok, then I'll hear my hard drive getting a little loud, then everything freezes and sometimes comes back. The screen isn't completely locked up though, I can still move my mouse around, but just can't close or open items.
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium too.
Is it possible the OS is doing massive accesses all the time, and I need to turn something off? Or do you think this is a bad hard drive? It has been working flawless for a few weeks. This just started happening a few days ago, and is irritating as hell.
