My computer seems to be dragging. Here is my HIJACKTHIS file and STARTUP file for your review. Any help you can give would be appreciated. Also, on another note, every time I try to burn movies to a DVD using Windows Movie Maker or Windows DVD Maker, the program freezes and aborts.

Thanks,

Bill

Under DMA / PIO for your PCI IDE controllers, I did what was asked by the link given, but I did not find anything stating DMA or PIO. Under device manager, I had 2 IDE channels to look into, and neither of them stated DMA or PIO.

All channels in the IDE ATA/ATAPI section should run in either PIO or DMA, where DMA is the quickest.
PIO is sort of a safemode windows reverts to if something on those channels are unstable one way or
the other. There is no option for not being there, it is one or the other.

So it should be there....

Rightclick all with the name "channel"
Properties
Advanced settings

In the box, it will state DMA or PIO mode for the transfer rate.

You might have to log in with a administrator account to change anything, not sure tho.
