Guest Carl Davey Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 I was having problems with any kind of software not installing (got error message) and got 'Delayed Write Failed' (disabling 2nd hardrive on PC fixed problem). So I system reset to factory settings. The PC worked fine for a few weeks then software wouldn't install again (games already installed also crashed or went slow) and then found on net changing Windows registration files e.g. from 'C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools' to 'C:\%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools' fixed the problem (have to change the registration files once a week to %USERPROFILE% as they keep changing back). The PC has worked fine for 2-3 months until a game crashed and the 'Delayed Write Failed' came back even though the registration files were of the short form still. Can anyone give me advice what to do next?
Guest Gerry Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Re: Registration files/delayed write error Please post copies of all Error and Warning Reports appearing in the System and Application logs in Event Viewer for the last boot. No Information Reports or Duplicates please. Indicate which also appear in a previous boot. You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer. When researching the meaning of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description are important. HOW TO: View and Manage Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308427/en-us Part of the Description of the error will include a link, which you should double click for further information.

Run Event Viewer and double click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a button resembling two pages.

Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from Event Viewer. -- Hope this helps.

Guest Carl Davey Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Re: Registration files/delayed write error I've listed a few from the similar time frame that the PC had a major crash. The PC at the moment seems to be working ok but this happened before I did the system reset (went from weekly crashes to daily to hourly, etc). I can't imagine the one about a loose cable is correct as for periods of time the PC has worked fine. The list seems to be very full of errors cocerniong DCOM, service control manager and a few others.

Guest Gerry Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Re: Registration files/delayed write error Carl The comments by Ionut Marin seem to be touching on both errors: http://www.eventid.net/display.asp?eventid=50&eventno=1839&source=Ntfs&phase=1 I would try HD Tune (freeware). Download and run it and see what it turns up. http://www.hdtune.com/ Select the Info tabs and place the cursor on the drive under Drive letter and then double click the two page icon ( copy to Clipboard ) and copy into a further message. Select the Health tab and then double click the two page icon ( copy to Clipboard ) and copy into a further message. Also do a full surface scan with HD Tune. Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties, Hardware,Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code? -- Hope this helps.

Guest Carl Davey Posted September 29, 2007 Posted September 29, 2007 Re: Registration files/delayed write error Hi It seems to fine, I know if I just use the primary drive and disable the 2nd drive the PC will work a 100%.
