please check to see if your hard disk is fragmented and do a defragmentation if necessary. Please click on the my computer icon and go to the drives you have on the HDD one at a time. Right click on the drive and click on properties. Go to the tools tab and click defragment now. Analyze defragmentation and if you're told that you need to defragment the drive do it.
