Hard drive properties

[d2y]

Hi all,
I recently installed 2 160g hard drives to my system and
everything looks ok. i.e. the bios recognizes them, Windows
XP recognizes them, I can format them using the disk manage
utility and I can write files to them. However, whenever I
try to right click and select Properties from the menu I
get a system error the windows explorer needs to shut down.
I also get the same type of result in the disk manager. If
I right click and try to select Properties the Manage
application shuts down.

I currently have them hooked up to the controller card that
came with the harddrives but I get the same result when I
hook them up to the RAID slots on the motherboard.

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions that anyone has.

Thanks for the input but it isn't that it is just slow it
actually cause windows explorer to crash. Any other thoughts?
Thx
