I just got a new-to-me (but gently used) Sigma 28-70 f/2.8 lens (the
older
72mm filter model).  I put it on my D10 and it took a few photos.  I
then
added my 420 flash and started getting the "Err 99" code on the 10D,
which
the manual decodes as "an error other than the above" and tells me to
take
out and re-install the battery.  I did so, but then I could not take
even a
single photo before I got the error again, with or without the flash.  I
replaced the Sigma with one of my Canon lenses, and it worked fine, with
and
without the flash.  

Is this possibly a sign that the lens needs to be re-chipped?  If so,
will
Sigma re-chip a lens for me, even if I am not the original owner?  Or is
this a sign that the lens is bad?  :(  Or a sign of operator error?

Possibly re-chipped.  Check with Sigma.  Many times they do not charge.
