Once the system has warmed up for 20 to 30 minutes the disk works fine. However, before this period the disk boots but typically has read errors reading files from the disk ( including command files!). The disk is a 30MB Seagate 238 and the controller is an Adaptec 2070A. If the system is power cycled after the 20 minute warm up period everything works fine. Therefore it seems the problem is heat related. Has anyone else had this problem? Any solutions? Thanks for your help. Bob Shreeve HP NID (503) 750-2975 hp-labs!hp-pcd!shreeve
