| Windows Vista: NEW Vista start up problem hi, Over the course of several weeks I've been having hangs when Vista starts up. On the BIOs screen, during the loading of the OS and on the desk top. It will hang in excess of 5 minutes at all three of these locations. The problem moves around. Also I've had problems installing a hard drive. All of these are USB related. The hard drive would not install with two USBs in the PC. The hangs are associated with a document text in the PNY 4GB attache Ready Boost USB I have permanently installed in my system. The document has been deleted. I have removed the second USB. The system is booting again correctly but I believe this is short term and will return. Anyone have anything on this? Looks like a driver problem in the OS to me. Might be a hub problem or something related. omega

| It sounds like the os is performing a check on the stick. Whilst in Vista, with the stick plugged in, right click on the stick in My Computer. Go to properties, tools and then click 'Check now' in the error checking box. Ensure all options are ticked and run the scan. Then see if the problem persists on boot. If it does, copy everything from the stick to the PC and format the stick. If it still persists,you might look at not using the stick for readyboost as the performance differences aren't usually very dramatic. crabby |
