From: Striker77s on 26 Apr 2010 18:59 I'm having some baffling behavior on a computer and I need some help. I have a new computer (Dell T5500) with XP Pro SP3 that I setup that is acting strange. Every time I try write files to a network drive while logged into my domain it begins to copy and then fails. If I copy a group of small files several files will successfully write and then it fails at a random file. If I copy a large file it will begin and then fail. I've tried all kinds of files from different locations on my local hard drive. I can copy files from the network onto my local hard drive. I have roaming profiles turned on. Since I can't write to any server it can't write anything to the profile. If I log into any other computer on the network I can write to the network drives just fine. Even when I log in as the domain admin I can't write to a network drive including my own profile on the domain server. If I log into a local computer account I can map a drive and copy files to the server with no problems. But as soon as I log into a domain account it has the behavior as I described earlier. The fact that it starts the copying process and succeeds with several files before giving me a access denied error is strange. I posted this on the active directory thinking it was a group policy issue, but got no reply. I've done some more troubleshooting and rebuilt the box multiple times. I have two identical boxes except for the RAID card (3Ware 9650 12ML). The one without the RAID works just fine. I have even ghosted the working image to the one with the RAID card and then installed the RAID card driver. I get the same error. So that means it is a RAID card issue. Is there some kind of compatibility between the NIC and RAID? I have even tried a couple of different NIC cards with the same results. I can't figure out why a RAID card would affect the ability to write to a network drive.
