When I insert a cd into my CD Drive it used to bring up a window with several
options. That no longer happens. Also, and this started at about the same
time, it takes forever for a 'right click' menu to come up and it takes
double forever for a software application to open when you click on an
associated file.
i.e. I can open Word and then open a file in a matter of seconds (my PC has
1gb of ram and a 2ghzP4 proc.)But if I go directly to that file and click on
it . . . I can go get lunch before it opens in Word. ( if Word wasn't open to
begin with.)
I did a 'Repair Install' of WinXP which actually helped forlabout a day.
Then it went right back. Any clues?
