We have a couple of old Varian GC/ECDs running on Varian Star 4.5 software under Windows 98. Both systems acquire data to a network drive mapped onto a local drive letter [R:]. The network drive has plenty of free space. The local hard drives on the computers also have more than 2 GB of free disk space. Every so often, Star comes up with a message stating "Disk is nearly full; Please remove files now!". The message does not indicate the disk to which the message refers . The current injection finishes running but the data file is not saved. The sample list or sequence being acquired hangs and it is necessary to reboot the system in order to continue. This becomes a royal pain in various body parts when injections are being performed overnight or over a weekend. Our Varian tech can't come up with an explanation or a fix. If anyone else has experienced this problem, we would like to know what causes it and how it can be fixed.
Thank you in advance...
