Now, this looks like a harddrive controller problem to me (although that is a wild guess on my part). And since I AM the "system vendor" I'm leaning on you guys/gals to provide some intellectual resource. I'm getting ready to do a Seatools test on the drive, but wonder if you folks know if you can update/flash/patch (whatever) the firmware on a harddrive? I've never heard of doing this, but then again, I've not heard of doing a lot of things...

Anybody got any ideas?


Thanks,
Ret

Looks like flashing the BIOS solved the above problem... now I just get one error in Event Viewer:

Any ideas?

I have found the Event Viewer a pretty handy tool.. it seems to log all "Events" (go figure) and provides me an option to see what the heck happened. Now if I could only figure out what this [-peep-] means!! (something else I didn't have in 98SE - Event Viewer) Anywayz...
