People might be able to help you better if they knew what data system/controller, what version of the software and of Windows.

If you are running MSDChemstation on a Windows7 computer, you will get that error if you leave Data Analysis up and running all the time. Usually if you close the DA window and reopen it will go away. Never had that problem on WindowsXP or 2000, but W7 seems to have a memory leak running the older software.

Like James said, this isn't a C: or D: drive issue, it sounds like a RAM issue.

Next time it happens, hit Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open up your Task Manager on Windows. Look at the resources bar on the bottom. If physical memory is at 100% utilization, you're out of RAM. Look at the Processes tab and see which program is eating the most RAM.

Close/open the software and make a habit of restarting the computer from time to time.
