My netbook ASUS Eee PC is running WinXP Home SP3.

The hard disk is SATA Seagate ST9160827AS.

The system works perfectly all right, but each time when the system goes to Standby, I got Error message under the System in Event Viewer that said:

Source: atapi

Event ID: 9

The device, \Device\Ide\IdePort0, did not respond within the timeout period.

Could someone enlighten me what could be the cause and eventually how to fix it.

Thanks a lot.

Which EEE PC model do you have?

Its also obvious you modified it from the original configuration right? These things are designed to work with solid-state drives...

No!! I did not modify my Eee PC which is:

ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10-Inch Netbook that comes with 1.6 GHz Intel ATOM N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive (Seagate Momentus 5400.4) and XP Home.

ok ok, I was not aware Asus started putting mobile drives in these now.

Do you have a CD drive connected to this guy?

No CD drive connected.

BTW, my Eee PC comes with Seagate hard disk, not a SSD, so it is not mobile drive.
