I am using firewire 800 drives into a 800 card in my computer. P4 / 3.2g / 2g memory / XP.
Every time I start to manage a file, AVI video files, I get a "Windows Delayed Write Failed" message, killing the hard drive and making me have to reboot to start over. I've Googled the error message and found that there is a "HOT FIX" from Microsoft. I don't know which one it is and they wont send it to you if you don't know what it is. I've updated all drivers and bios. If I put the drive in my tower and make it the "D" drive, it all works fine. As soon as I go back to firewire, I get the error message. It has to be a windows problem. There must be a fix, but I can't find it.
