The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

1000 points - I/O Failure on \Device\Harddrive\DR0

Asked by sr75 in Windows 2000 Operating System

Tags: operation, specified

Okay I am normally on the other side of these questions, however I need the help of the rest of you great minds.

I have a client who exchanged their printer (brother to an HP 4200 PCL6) and now is getting this error:

"The specified I/O operation on \Device\Harddisk\DR0 was not completed before the time-out period expired"

This error only occurs when the new HP Laserjet 4200 PCL6 is attached (via parallel) and not when the Brother is connected.

The event IDs are 9 and 51

I think it is an I/O number issue.  The MS KB for these event IDs were not helpful as 51 says to refer to 9 and nine says to refer to the Manufacturer of the Hard Drive for any known issues.  But as this is not happening ALL the time, so I do not beleive it is an issue with the Harddrive.

Its a Windows 2000 Pro SP2 on a newer Dell PC.  

Will upgrading to SP3 or 4 fix this issue?
Will going into the BIOS and changing the I/O for the Printer port fix this?
Has anyone else experienced anything similar to this?

Thanks in advance
