I check the disk manager and from what I see in there my primary harddisk is located in channel0/Disk 0 while Disk1 is from my removable USB flash drive.

ordeal with this Event 11 that Windows quietly generates. It took us few weeks to fully work out why Windows suddenly started hanging, misbehaving or even crashing with blue screen. Now that I feel it
The Driver Detected A Controller Error On Device Harddisk0
is fully resolved, I thought I’d share my conclusion (and the process) – hopefully it the driver detected a controller error on device ide ideport0 will help few others out there who are struggling with this. Ridiculously, many people are likely affected by this issue, but unless the driver detected a controller error on \device\ide\ideport1. they open Event Viewer and search for this event id 11, they will not realize that hanging is not “normal” behavior, even for Windows! OS seems to silently recover from this problem 10 to 60 seconds later, http://www.sevenforums.com/bsod-help-support/175034-driver-detected-controller-error-device-harddisk1-dr1.html which is really strange in my book – considering that user isn’t even alerted to this serious atapi error. For impatient souls among us, here are my conclusions: First thing – check the SATA/EIDE and power cable connection between your hard-drive and the motherboard. If possible, try another SATA outlet on motherboard or another SATA cable if available. If it still happens, the bad news is that this is likely a disk controller error, which http://www.adir1.com/2012/01/solved-the-driver-detected-a-controller-error-on-deviceideideport2/ is especially problematic since nowadays disk controllers are built into the Motherboard. If you are in a budget crunch, one potential workaround is to slow down your HD to use different PIO. This may avoid hangs, but will slow overall performance, so no fun solution… Proper solution appears to be to replace motherboard, hence replacing disk controller. There are many motherboards starting at just $50 and in most cases it will improve overall performance and stability for you, even if you keep the same CPU and other components. I am pretty confident that this is the right diagnosis, as we went through a lot of trial and error investigative work, in a space of few weeks, after it started abruptly. At first, I was pretty much convinced that HD is dying. The system had two hard-drives, and the older hard-drive was seemingly working just fine, even with the same SATA cable and connected to the same slot on the Motherboard. Turns out it was using slower PIO by virtue of it being older HDD. During the troubleshooting process I reinstalled fresh Windows 7 64 Bit multiple times, on various HD drives, only to see the issue start happening almost instantly after clean install. Few days ago a fresh HDD became available (separate long story), so I tried replacing the “dying” H

However, from device manager and disk management, the main disk is "0" and there are informational mentions in the logs of dr0 when I enable/disable write caching so it does recognize 0 as different from dr1. Howevever, the computer has no other disk that I know of and if I open it up while it does have a space for it (laptop), it has no connections for a new one. I wonder if it's a 'hidden' device of some sort or a problem with the manufacturer's blocking of connections. In any case I'd like to find out which that device is precisely. On device manager, DVD drive is mentioned as 'CD ROM 0" when I use 'Populate' in the Volumes tab of its properties and similarly HDD reports disk 0. I still wonder though if for some reason the dvd drive is considered as disk 1 but there's no confirmation of it anywhere. Any other devices such as USB drives etc. are shown as 2, 3, 4 etc. on drive management. Also looking in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE I can only see HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi\Scsi Port 0\Scsi Bus 0\Target Id 0\Logical Unit Id 0 as PhysicalDrive2 which is a bit weird now that I think of it. That location also co
