[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1270440, member: 141969"] Good catch. (y) When the OS encounters a bad disk block during a read or a write, it repeats the operation many many times to see if the operation will succeed. I recollect seeing the value of 100 times (but that may not be accurate). The OS does this [I]for each block[/I]. If there are many defective blocks, the system slows down due to all of these retries, and that slow down might be the cause of the SQL timeout errors. [USER=111527]@Dark Eyes[/USER] should try "chkdsk.exe" with the "/f" and "/v" options. It should fix errors in the file system, and if you look at the summary at the end it should tell you how many defective blocks there are (but since this is the OS disk, you will need to watch the screen carefully since the summary will remain on screen for only a moment or two before the system reboots). However, you may get a more comprehensive check if you use the disk check program produced by the manufacturer of your disk. -- from CyberSimian in the UK. [/QUOTE]
