Well, re-downloaded and re-installed Giga-byte motherboard drivers. If anything, the problem is worse. My current VueMark for the XP-64 is:

293

Ugghh! I am so frustrated.

Now, I think the problem has to do with the installation of Vue and XP-64 on the D:  drive. Here is my configuration:

C - SATA II - XP-32 + Vue 32
D - IDE - SLAVE with a CD-RW drive as MASTER - XP-64 + Vue 64
F - SATA II - Shared data drive for both OS's

When I run XP-64, the OS is causing the hard drive indicator light to flash non-stop. Even, when there's nothing running that I can see. What gives?!

If I watch the indicator light with Vue 64 and run VueMark, the hard drive flashes non-stop as if every other second, Vue has to fetch some data off the drive. In Vue 32, the hard drive light flickers a little at first, then nada.

Perhaps, my next move is to un-install Vue 64 and install it on the C: drive?!

Why is XP-64 hitting the hard drives with so much intensity? I've set the page file size to zero (min & max), but in the Task Manager, the page files are still being swapped?!
