Thanks a lot, Matt and David. - Most of the startup apps were removed and I have now 83% of "system resources" (war around 50%). Great. The improvement is noticeable. - No virus nor hacks, I guess. AVG is always updated and Zone Alarm is active during internet connections. - How do I turn on the DMA mode for the new HD? - No idea if something was damaged when the HD was replaced. I believe it was not, since no big difference in the Lib behavior was noticed after the HD replacement (except the one in question). But ...... I have a problem when it is switched on docked (enhanced replicator). Sometimes a "KBC error" message is displaied right after the ON switch is pressed and it hangs. I have no idea what this error means. But if I switch off/on 2 or 3 times is starts fine. Or if I undock/dock 2 or 3 times. And it always starts fine when undocked. Can this be an indication that something was damaged? Or a bad contact between the Lib and the replicator?
