fc5 slow promary master idecd

[Randolph Jones]

I have been running fc5 for some months with no problem
last week or so getting sloow boot and slow desktop
now takes about 5 min to boot to desktop
bios check shows primary master is idecd/dvd (dont know when this happened)
I recently installed xprint and updated gtk2
there is a dir /net that I dont recognize
I have amd64 on msi k8n neo4 1 gig ram 20 gig + 80 gig ide drives + cd/dvdrw
below is system output
Any help would really be appreciated
