Super slow os x after running bootcamp
Hi I'm here just asking for some help!!
I have a 27" iMac i5 which I bought at the beginning of last year, everything has been fine until today.
I use bootcamp to run windows 7 just to use autocad for work, for everything else I use the iMac as you should with osx lion . Today I loaded a drawing into autocad on windows 7 and it just froze up in the end I restarted the iMac and ever since it has been running really slow and I mean REALLY slow It takes over half a hour to boot up .
I've tried various things like stopping spotlight indexing the bootcamp partition , running disk repairs and pretty much everything in the Basic troubleshooting thread in the end I decided to do a clean install but even that has taken over 2 hours and it's only just over half way. even tho it is progressing I'm sure it shouldn't take this long
Has anybody got any ideas Could it be software or a hardware issue maybe hard drive or ram ?
