"Windows Delayed Write Failed"
Does anyone have any idea what this is about?
I just reinstalled Windows XP Pro a week or two ago and I have been getting these random messages since the first day. It says it is trying to write something to my external USB hard drive, but cannot. I wonder if this is a spyware string that managed to hang around? Any thoughts would be appreciated. TIA Ed Cregger |

TIA It can't flush the cache to the USB HDD. A simple fix for now is to disable the caching on the USB drive. -- Conor, Same ****, different day. |
