Two problems with my T400

[mer7cer7]

I got a T400 and I have it how i like it except for two things:

1.) The harddrive light flicks about every second or shorter. What is accessing my hard drive all the time? (I installed a SSD but I think it did the same thing before I installed it)

2.) The lenovo service take FOREVER to startup. I try to bring up the internet (Fn+F5) or the ThinkVantage button and it thinks a for little and then NOTHING COMES UP. I have to wait about 10 minutes after startup and then click I can click the button and the service will start

I've updated both my Lenovo service and Windows. What can I do to fix this?

The hard drive light is probably an indication that some program or service is constantly accessing the drive. In my case it was anti-virus or firewall programs responding to various other programs and setting up a constant stream of feedback activity. I had to tell them to ignore certain programs and turn off some of the logging capabilities.

Which Lenovo service are you talking about? It sounds like one or more of them are not working quite right.
