I am running an ASUS P5K Premium WiFi AP motherboard.
A few weeks ago my computer started to freeze occasionally for anything from ten to thirty seconds. This is now happening with annoying frequency. On checking the Vista event logs I see that there have been an awful lot of errors with the message:
"The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Ide\IdePort3."
It's tempting to believe that this is responsible for the lock-ups. However, I don't actually have anything attached to IDE Port 3.
Is this indicative of my MB starting to fail?
