You got me thinking so I reinstalled a former hd and I don't have the
disk error in the event anymore, don't have the 104 error for the
srservice anymore either but system restore still does the same error
when I try to use it. Also now have a different error and there are
many 'information' events listing service control manager and a variety
of numbers.
As far as the hd it was a 160gb maxtor hd , ata100, formated w NTPS
format in one partition. has always been. The 2nd drive was a 60gb
maxtor ata 100 formated NTPS and one partition. Also, although no other
hd is listed under Hard Disk Drives in My Computer, in the device
manager if I turn on my photosmart hp printer it lists the card reader
as a Disk drive.
