HDD activity

For some reason the hard drive light stays on all the time. I'm running Windows 2000. How can I tell what is using the hard drive? I checked to make sure that the indexing was off. Any other ideas? help?

TIA,

Seth

The LED connector is on backwards, turn it 180 deg and replace onto pins.

Nope. Nice try though. I hear activity 24/7, and the light doesn't turn on until someone gets logged in.

Thanks

now I am confused, so the light does NOT stay on all the time as was stated in post 1 ?
Only when someone logs..... ON personally or INTO to your system via a network ? just need to clarify the facts.

Is that it ?
