Running Widows 2000 on its own primary partition...
Every time I reboot, I notice this error in the Event Viewer, under the Application Log:
perfctrs: Unable to read IO control information from NBT device.
I am also seeing regular disk errors in the system log. One recurring one says:
The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Harddisk0\DR0.
Here is my setup:
