It seems that windows has a problem with one of my disks. In event viewer
gives me the event 51 message (paging fault) occassionaly on
\Device\Harddisk1\D but I can't recognize which disk it is. I have a western
digital 120 gb in parallel ata as e:, a wd raptor serial ata as drive c:
(boot disk which in system information utility says is harddisk2) and 2
disks in a raid array (drive D) on the silicon raid controller. Please help!
(I am using the latest nforce drivers).

On which disk does you page file (pagefile.sys) reside?

If the information utility you're using identifies the Raptor as
"harddisk2," doesn't it identify one of the others as "harddisk1?" The
Computer Management console will identify your disks -- Right click My
Computer and select "Manage;" then click on Storage/Disk Management.
See which is listed as Disk 0, Disk 1, Disk 2, and so on.

What kind of problem is this causing in Windows?

Thanks for the answer!
I'll try to answer your questions now. The pagefile.sys is in the raptor and
the console identifies as disk 1 the raptor again. I have checked that
before, but the system information confuses me because identifies as boot
device \Device\HarddiskVolume2 the raptor (for the others just mentions
them). And last I have not seen any real problems with windows from this
event but it gives me insecurity about my data of course!
