Check whether the "Enable write caching on the disk" feature is turned on. If it is turned on, turn it off. To do this, follow these steps. Note : If you turn off the "Enable write caching on the disk" feature, your drive may perform more slowly and may affect the overall system performance of your computer. Because of this, you may want to monitor system performance after you follow the steps in this section. To turn off Enable write caching on the disk, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, and then click My Computer. 2. Right-click the hard disk, and then click Properties. 3. Click the Hardware tab. 4. Click to select the hard disk, and then click Properties. 5. Click the Policies tab. 6. Click to clear the Enable write caching on the disk check box, and then click OK. If these steps resolve the error message, you are finished.
