Hi
I have noticed that when I connect a USB disk brand ADL four repeated errors appear in Even Viewer of Windows 7. The error is
The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Harddisk1\DR1.
The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Harddisk1\DR5.
But the disk is fine, it have passed the ScanDisk, I have formatted it and the error appears, however it works correctly when I transfer files to and from the disk
Many thanks
 
Are you sure you are looking at the correct drive? I have gotten those errors on DVD-RAM drives when they have a dirty disk.

Or perhaps a flaky driver is causing the issue while it is identifying the USB device.

Hi
Yes because it appears immediately when I plug the USB disk everytime, at first I though it was the system hard disk.
What is strange; in WinXP none errors appear in the Event Viewer, only appears in Win7, maybe it's a Windows7 issue?
Many thanks.
 
it says CONTROLLER error, not disk error.

The problems with the USB controller, possibly drivers.

Hi.
Hmm happens only with that disk, with the rest none errors so I don't think it's a USB Controller fault. I have the lñatest drivers installed...
Many thanks
