No, but a guess from things I seen in the past. Had drives that ultimately went bad exhibit this. From cold boot, some that spun up too slowly (might boot OK by doing a warm boot). Marginal power (undersized or eqpt added to original config) for everything starting up at the same time (staged "spin up/power up" gets by this). Loose power/data connectors. GSN cell phone inside the computer case =>:-O. (Joke, put it does make noise in my speakers when it "trains up with the tower"). Have you looked at it with hdparm? If it's a "S.M.A.R.T." capable drive, have you used smart tools (smartmon?) on it? Now I know you only changed the OS, but I just went through this (different symptoms) when hardware started to abdicate its responsibilities around the same time I upgraded a couple things (seamonkey, e.g.). Never assume. > > Thanks > Jamie > <snip sig stuff> HTH -- Bill
