NPL (and Tivo Menus in general) populating very slowly

I have a series 3 TV and I have just encountered some problems.

2 Days ago my Tivo was running very, very slowly. Everything was very unresponsive. I would click the Tivo button and it would act like nothing would happen...then after about 5 minutes, the Tivo would just restart.

So I called Tivo and they told me it was my cable cards. I took them out and for a bit everything was working fine. Now everything seems to be working (still haven't gotten new cable cards), but the menus take a terrible time to show and when I click on a show I want to watch, it takes about 20 seconds for it to start playing after I hear the "ding" after I click to play it.

What's weird is that when I am looking in the NPL, when I first enter there, Tivo recognizes the list, I can scroll up and down in the list, but nothing is in the list for a couple of seconds...

Anyone else have this problem or now what the problem is?

Might need a new HD

This happened to my upgraded S3 a few months ago. Lasted about a month till finally it just stopped altogether i decided to see if it was maybe a HD problem. So i put back in the original drive and voila no more problem. So if you have a back up drive you may want to try a swap to see if that takes care of it.
