Post subject:  Read Raw issue - System Hang after out of track read
Using $20080820; 10: Evolution

We've been using the following code as a fast ReadCooked and it works 99% of the time

BUT in a rare but repeatable set of conditions a complete system hang (Task Manager doesnot help) will occur

1) read is to an area outside a track (with a specific disk) the function returns false normally but 1 sector will return success
2) after that the next read to a track area will put the sector count into the buffer and then pad 1 sector with 0 (other data in buffer is uneffected) - this will happen with a cooked read as well
3) do a number of other additional reads successfully
4) Reread previously read sector (with cooked) will HARD crash a PC
5) Log finishes with
DeviceIoControl() failed, status 121 ( 0x79 )
Semaphore timeout, re-executing the CDB, 1 vs. 5000

1) We don't support anything released before V10.5 (and V12 in a couple of days).

2) We do need FULL StarBurn log and not the quote you think makes sense. As it does not.
