I finally fixed my problem. First I went through everything and it
took over a year to finally discover what the problem was. I just wanted to share my experience with everyone, who knows maybe it will fix your problem too. 1. Try disabling the cache on the system - already set 2. Re-installing USB 2.0 drivers - didn't work 3. I can go on and on... Now the little tiny "manual" (if we can call it that) said to set the IDE hard disk to MASTER. So I did. But this only worked for a few minutes. Originally it had been in CS (Cable Select) and I had a ton of errors. TRY SETTING THE IDE DRIVE JUMPER TO SINGLE DRIVE! THIS WORKED FOR ME... No more errors, no more disconnects, I am able to transfer either 1MB or 30GB files with no problems at all for 3 months now. Cheers everyone!!! |
