I upgraded my computer with a slipstreamed version of XP, so XP with SP1a. The install went all buggy at points and crashed when "reconfiguring office 2000" I rebooted and the install went fine after i hit cancel on the "reconfiguration." The system now does post to Windows XP, but does it DEATHLY slow. I ran chkdsk on my primary drive and it checked out, but then i ran it on my secondary hard drive with is a 200gb western digital. It found corruption after corruption, that is until it hit block segment c. 130000 then it says everything is unreadable. for example "block segment 131237 is unreadable" I want to know # 1 if chkdsk has the abilty to check a drive over 130mb and #2 does anymody have a solution. Thank you all in advance.

No matter how hard you don't want them to, Things eventually change.
