I have just installed a new drive (quantum), installed Win2k for the first time (previously Win98) and I am getting an error in event viewer/system log:

Event ID: 11
The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Harddisk0\DR0

Happens under heavy disk activity - this is the main error message that I am getting although I occasionally get an error:

Event ID: 5
A parity error was detected on \Device\IDE\IDEPort0

My machine is
AMD T/Bird 1Ghz
Abit KT7 Mobo
Abit Siluro MX400
SBlaster Live
256Mb
40Gb Quantum Fireball Plus AS
Netgear card


I checked this by installing Win2k on my old Fujitsu ATA33 drive with the same errors - any ideas????
