Perhaps you are no longer in DMA mode on the hard drive? Some people get stuck in PIO mode (I think it is called PIO mode). If you do a google search you should be able to pull up information about how to check you are not.
Okay, I did a quick search for you and you can check by following the instructions here http://winhlp.com/WxDMA.htm under "Check Your IDE Port Mode".
It is a bit of a long shot but worth a look.
