@Laurion,
thanks so much for weighing in on this.
The windows update edb was also getting logged with this exception
just when I fired up the VM connected via firewire...I suspect this is
all due to the Win7 1394 driver bug reports I have found elsewhere
online.
I think this is related: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/981613
I am pretty sure my disk is okay after running ckdsk (and it is pretty
new).
I guess I have to stick with USB until this is resolved.
