    The first error seems to be with your CD/DVD Burner,try updating the firmware for a start.

    The second controller error-update your mobo drivers.
    Also run a health check on the drives in case they may be starting to fail

    updating firmware means updating bios is that right?
    The second controller error-update your mobo drivers.
    can you tell me how to update mobo drivers?

    i ran chkdsk which found no errors and i ran seatools test from seagate in which both hard disk passed SMART test but it showed old one failed in long test.
    can u recommend me some good testing tools?

    i also get some error in event viewer like this

    event id - 7
    The device, \Device\Harddisk0\D, has a bad block.

    but both hard disk work perfect all the time and suddenly old drive
    seems inaccesseble. when i restart pc everything works normal again.

    Hey sach1000rt,
    i would strongly reccomend backing up all the data on your first hard drive ASAP!
    i had those type of errors just before the hard drive in my 6 year old computer went.
    what motherboard make and model do you have?
    i should be able to help you locate the drivers for it with that information.

    thank you for help. but the problem is i have visited that page but
    they dont have the controller drivers all they have are related ATI Radeon* Xpress 200 card drivers which are not usefull to me as i have another card(nvidea)which i use.
    do you know how to update controller drivers?
    or do they embedd these drivers with some other driver installation files like realtek audio driver?

    Hello sach1000rt,
    download 5.Chipset: ATI Radeon* Xpress 200
    look here
    look under Universal Connectivity
    as you can see the chipset also provides the raid and sata controller.
