disc failure? at least snail snow CPU...

[Gary Kline]

	Anybody got suggestions on what kind of hard drive to buy for my
	new main server--if is *is* the drive?  The video board began 
	flaking out recently, and now "tao2" is hanging part way up.

	It crashed about an hour ago and I let fsck finish before doing 
	a shutdown -r now.  It took several minutes to boot and is still
	fsck'ing /.  This time the display is very large, but the 
	processor is extremely slow; it reminds me of a 386-33!

	So a logical question here is, what could cause an otherwise very
	fast Dell-8200 to switch back to s-l-o-w??

	thanks, guys,

	gary
