    having some hard drive errors

    Hi,
    I am new to these forums I just build my first pc and am having a problem with it. for the most part it runs great. But when i download stuff or burn DVDs i get errors in the burning and my downloads get corrupted alot of the time. Like when i download a file like a driver it might take a couple trys to get it. half or so might download then it stops and in the event veiwer it says An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk0\D during a paging operation and an error that says The device, \Device\Scsi\viamraid1, did not respond within the timeout period. i also get this alot but i think it has to do with downloading with limeware TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts. anyway i hope some one can help. And by the way i am running my 2 hard drives in raid-0. thanks again for reading this if i am missing any info just ask

    i downloaded the tool and ran it. I showed tha my physical drive was olny 9 gigs and my logical drive as 160 i think it might be because my drives are set up as a raid any other advice would help thanks again

    Have you minimized the processes running (standard system cleanup stuff)?
