From: Mark Black on 11 Jan 2006 07:32 Hello. I've got 2 IDE hard drives and an external drive connected with USB2. I've recently got the following error "An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk4\D during a paging operation." Does anyone know how I can tell which drive is Harddisk4? Thanks.

As Administrator, run DISKPART. Command LISt DISk will list you the disks. Then with SELect DISk 4 then DETails DISk you'll see what partitions are available. Diskpart is not installed with 2000, you'll have to download it. It's a MS free tool, originally from the Resource kit I believe. Documentation is available on the web too. Beware, there are a lot of dangerous commands (but LIST and DETAILS are fairly safe). Antoine |
