SCSI Miniport Paging Error on Swap File

Greetings,

We are developing a SCSI Miniport driver to support our ATA device
controller. We have run into a question we can’t seem to find an answer to.

Is there some documentation that discusses controlling the boot device/swap
file *anywhere*? We have the following symptoms under Window 2000:

If the ATA device controller our driver is written for is not controlling
(connected to) the boot device, *and* the hard drives connected to our card
do not have to handle the swap file, then our driver has no problems
installing/running.

However, if the hard drives connected to our card have to handle the swap
file and/or handle the boot device, then we have problems with the paging
file (which is the swap file). The Event Viewer/System Log displays the
error as:

“An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk1\DR1 during a paging
operation.”

We think this may be due to some (undocumented?) detail we don’t know about
controlling the swap file/boot device?

Please point us in the right direction.

–Christine
