SYMPTOMS
When you are using Ultra DMA (UDMA) IDE devices (such as IDE hard disks or CD-ROM drives), hot-swapping the devices may cause the new device not to be reprogrammed to use UDMA mode. Hot-swapping with a new device may cause the new device to use an I/O mode other than UDMA. This in turn may cause the computer to stop responding (hang).
CAUSE
When you hot-swap from one type of IDE device to another type, Windows may not handle the reconfiguration of the new device correctly. Therefore, when the computer enters a sleep state (S1 through S3), the _STM method is called with incorrect information. This in turn may cause the computer to hang upon reboot.

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows 2000. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
