SYMPTOMS
On a computer that has two MYLEX DAC 960 controllers, Windows NT hangs or
traps randomly with the following stop error:
STOP 0x00000077 (0x00000103, 0xc0000185, 0x00000001, 0x00005000)
The STOP error and the second parameter (0xc0000185) are always the same,
the other parameters may or may not vary.
CAUSE
The MYLEX controllers go off-line randomly. Although the MYLEX controller
is on the Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) for Windows NT 3.5 and 3.51, a
multiple-controller configuration was not tested.
RESOLUTION
Upgrade the firmware of the MYLEX controllers to version 2.16. This
firmware revision can be obtained from MYLEX Corporation.
These controllers can handle multiple devices and several levels of RAID.
Therefore, you may be able to meet your configuration needs with only one
MYLEX DAC 960 controller installed in your computer.
MYLEX DAC 960 controllers are manufactured by MYLEX Corporation, a vendor
independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise,
regarding this product's performance or reliability.
