    - check connection-slots (maybe a pin is broken/bent?) done that, they're fine
    - check device-manager when 2nd harddisc is unplugged->PIO again? done that, it's the same
    - check Master/Slave-Jumpers on backside of harddiscs Device0->Master
    Device1->Slave If the slave connection was the wrong way round would it not just effect the slave. Its the master drive that is slow
    - change cable (option: change master/slave-connection, maybe the master-connector is damaged? Seems fine
    - update Windows-chipset-driver How do I do this?

      good question.

      Must be written in the mainboard?s manual.
      Dunno if one can find it out w/ the device-manager?

      for a "VIA"-chipset go to http://www.viatech.com.tw
      (Via4in1-driver)
      for Intel-chipset go to www.intel.com

      Maybe you should contact the harddisc-manufacturer via e-mail?
      Eventually they know about this issue...


      Sorry, dude, don?t know any further hints now.
