    Hi,
    I am running Vista Business 64 bit.

    I have i7 processor and 6gb of RAM.

    All of a sudden some programs take FOREVER to open,
    CDBurnerXP - this worked ok before so it's not an issue with 64bit OS,
    Gimp, Photoshop - they all take ages to load - if they do.

    It seemed to start with CDBurnerXP, since removing it the other progs run ok, but when i re installed it , it doesn't run properly itself ie really slowly and just stops responding.

    Is there some diagnostics I can run to see what's causing it ?


    I'm gonna upgrade to windows 7 in a month or so, but would still like
    to fix this problem.

    thanks

    I tested with other blank DVDs i have and they work fine , ever come across a dodgy batch of discs ?
