Delayed Write Failed

[Bogey]

I get a delayed write fail message for Drive E. When this happens I can no longer see my D E or F Drives.. The D and E drive is a partitioned 30G Hard Drive and the F drive is a CD-RW. When this happens the only way to recover appears to be to reboot the computer. Has anyone seen this before and if so is there anyway to recover from it without the reboot.. ( I have tried to do hardware install from control panel with no luck when this happens)
I have reseated the cable to the motherboard and the devices, any other ideas?

what are you trying to do copy files or install programs?

Maybe the hdd is about to give up on you? Heard any funny sounds from it lately?

No noises at all.. it only started to happen after I went to Win XP
