So here's a weird one, I get this error in event viewer every 5ms or so.

Event ID 11.
"The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Ide\IdePort3."

Logname: system
Source: atapi
Event ID: 11
Level: error

I don't have anything IDE in my computer, its all SATA. Might it be a sata controller? Or could it be something else? Any ideas? I'm stumped.
 
This is usually caused by errors on a device connected to the port/channel indicated in the log. Start by looking at the device you have on SATA port 3. Unplug it and see if the event stops.
 
Thanks for the advice, I didn't figure that the SATA ports would be identified as IDE. :p


I changed cables and ports and now it seems to be fine. SO.... GUys one or the other is/was/balls bad.
