I have cloned my warp installation from a 2GB IBM IDE drive to a 6.3GB drive. Recently I have had an intermittant problem (the worst kind!) Every once in a while when I log onto my E (data) partition I get a sudden high pitched noise from the computer box itself. The CPU meter goes up to about 50% (an AMD K6 233) everything predictably runs very slowly, and I am unable to display the drive contents with any GUI based viewer (Object Navigator, Warpcentre) A commandline dir command will display the partition contents normally. The only way to return things to normal is to reboot. Anyone know what is happening? Perhaps coincidentally I have begun getting a trap d from running fdisk too.
