THANKS FOR THE GREAT TIPS AND ADVICE. The culprit turned out to be a 80 MB zip in the root of C:\ that was hanging up on the read access. Once I removed this, it works like it did in the past. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE HELP!! NOTE: for those interested I downloaded and ran a utility called Filemon, from a site called sysintenals. within 3 minutes of runnif this log I found the problem. great utility and its free! I will be re-installing Diskeeper this weekend

Here are my specs: AMD XP1800+ ECS 7S5A (?) MOBO 512 2100DDR Crucial MEMORY WD 120GB 8 MB Buffer 7200 RPM HD

HELP! I just installed and ran Diskeeper 7.x trial. I am looking to purchase the full version, but I have run across an issue. After running Diskeeper (without errors) Windows Explorer now takes over 45seconds to refresh and display folder contents. This only happens on first launch of explorer and clicking on the first folder to open. After that I am back to the normal click and "BAM" your there response. I have since run Diskeeper with the DIRECTORY CONSILIDATION" but it did not make a change. I have run defrag several times and rebooted several times with no change. Any ideas on why this happening? THANKS!
