I suppose you did chkdsk /f . If that didn't fix
the drive, SpinRite would have: 1) fixed it, or 2)
shown what is wrong with that drive (if anything).

------- Original message -------
I started getting this message on a BSOD at power up. This is on my 3-week-old
box (Asus + Sempron, with my old disks).
It says "dumping physical memory to disk" for a minute, then re-boots (ad
nauseam).
Note that it only occurs when booting Win2K. Win98 is OK!
The Win2K repair procedure didn't fix it.
Microsoft's KB says "hardware problems", but I don't believe that, as it's all
common to both OS's!
