Was a long shot, but this sounds legit. Does the system still use IDE
drives? When, for some reason, the error rate of a device goes up the
IDE controllers used to switch from DMA to PIO mode, rendering the
drive dead slow. You can check this in the device manager. I think
this is gone with SATA, though.
