I've tried to get an answer about this on a number of fora but so far
nothing helpful has come my way. I finally upgraded my desktop to
WinXP. I was getting tired of having to Hack Win2K to get new software
and hardware to work properly so when I had my last primary hard drive
failure I decided to join the first decade of the 21st century, but I've
run into a problem. Most every time I attempt to search my system for a
file the OS locks up. I have an insane amount of storage for this box,
5TB in internal and external drives but then I had an insane amount of
storage on the Win2K installantion as well, and that didn't hang up on a
search. So I'm at a loss. I've tested all the drives and they check
out fine, I've run all the Windows, and a number of three party tests on
the file structure of each drive and they all check out. I'm not sure
where to look at this point. I know there are computer geeks on the
list who know more than I do about hardware problems than I do, and
probably a number who have dealt with OS problems that I've never seen.
I hope one of you has a clue, I certainly don't.

There are two kinds of computer users those who've experienced a hard drive
failure, and those that will.
