I started getting an intermittent error apparently generated by my BIOS that
tells me one of my drives (not the boot drive) has a SMART failure and to
press F4 to continue. This is a 40G Maxtor drive that seems to works fine.
Neither Norton System Doctor, nor the Maxtor diagnostic program reports any
problem with this drive. Also, the message during boot sometimes occurs for
several boots, and then no messages are seen for a while. Anyone have any
input on this?

Thank you for any suggestions or information.

Peter
