[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1787475, member: 56379"] As Harry suggested...the slowness could be the hard drive failing...and/or the hard drive could be almost full or full. The Recovery Partition (the place that the Command + R takes you)...is a separate partition from the hard drives main partition (the "normal" working area). When Disk Utility in the Recovery Partition tries to do something with the main partition...this is when the trouble & slowness starts. I'm guessing hard drive failing issue...or hard drive practically full or full. - Nick [/QUOTE]
