Good evening,

i dont know if this is the place to ask this question... but i have scoured
google for the last day or so for answers but i cant seem to be able to find
the answers i need.

I have a system which i have decided to put vista ultimate 64-bit edition
and the system is running 2 x western digital WD5000AAKS 500gb Sata drives.
Everything seemed fine at first, but i noticed recently that the disks appear
to be stopping every 3 to 4 hours and rebooting the system.

When the system comes back up, it attempts to report the error however cant
find a solution to it. It is a blue screen error and an error code of 9f.

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced a similar sort of problem at
all?

Cheers

Martin

If your motherboard has an NVidia Chipset, use the NVidia nForce 15.01's for
the SATA drives.
MSFT supplied drivers via Windows Update ARE problematic and you might have
just installed those inadvertedly.

Hmm - it says 'Intel' in the subject-line!

I don't know about Vista, but are the HD's RAID'ed or just on SATA? And are
there more OS's installed?

Tony,
That is what happens when you answer a post in a hurry!
You are dead right, it is by no means Nvidia, it is Intel.
Sorry about that.

Well, rest assured - it won't be long before someone (ourselves?) repeat
that mistake!

Im running raid 0 on two of the Sata drives and the other one is a spare
data drive.

Vista is the only operating system im running.

Hi,
First of all make sure you have the latest Intel drivers for your chipset.
Go here:
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=2101&lang=eng
And download the Intel Matrix Storage drivers for Vista x64.
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2101&OSFullName=Windows+Vista*+64&lang=eng&strOSs=150&submit=Go%21

Other than that, I can think of overclocking issues, excessive temperature,
fans full of dust, defective memory, insufficient power supply, etc.

Beyond what Carlos says, do check your SATA Cables! Pull an re-connect
them - re-route and give them some twist inside the case to bring tension to
the connectors. As a last resort, buy something of better quality, if it
exists.

The SATA cables is a well known weak-point, and would probably disturb a
RAID sooner than a single disk!

Afternoon :)

Just downloaded and installed the latest stroage manager, so we will see
what happens.

Also, i have had a quick look at the dump file to see what the error code
was again, i dont know if this makes any sense:

DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (9f)
A driver is causing an inconsistent power state.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000003, A device object has been blocking an Irp for too
long a time
Arg2: fffffa8004bae050, Physical Device Object of the stack
Arg3: fffffa8004c84060, Functional Device Object of the stack
Arg4: fffffa8008559b80, The blocked IRP

Dont know if anyone knows what that means.

Cheers
