Terrible performance

[psychobot]

i'm getting horrible performance on my computer while copying files. I have a well suitable pc for copying cds but for some reason copying cds halts my computer to an almost standstill. when i ran Ubuntu, everything worked fine. i have an FX-60, Velociraptor 300GB Hdd, 2 GB HyperX Ram. Ask for more specs if you need them. Please help me, I'm new to Linux.

Do you mean slow cd -rip or data copying from cd ?

If it is audio-cd ripping, it might be the default option of digital correction of sound juicer.

If it is copying files from data cd, it might be the problem of file system. Copying files from ISO9660(the file system of data cd) to NTFS (via ntfs-3g under Linux) usually takes more time than that of ext3.
