I hae a compaq with xp pro, 256mb,20g,1.2mhz.....The hard drive was replaced about 7-8 months ago because of the ping pong noise. Now the hard drive started to grind a bit but its not always and not that bad. I looked in the event viewer and noticed and entry:The Device,\Device\Ide\IdePort1, did not respond within the timeout period......Source atapi, Event ID9..... What does this mean?

put on your crash helmet folks, we're going down.
if you are real lucky maybe youcan still copy drive during REPLACEMENT! that puppy is headed south. maybe get warranty replacement after it is all over...buy different brand next time??
