Message Reference (S - T)

Saving file in Cardfile 3.0 format.

[Cardfile]

Cardfile was unable to load the Object Linking and Embedding libraries, so it cannot support the Cardfile 3.1 format. If Cardfile saves your file in a Cardfile 3.0 format, be aware that any embedded object becomes a static object, which means that you cannot edit it from within Cardfile. Also, if the object is in color, saving it in Cardfile 3.0 converts the object to black-and-white.

The fault tolerance driver was unable to map a faulty sector from use by the system on name.

[Disk Administrator]

The specified name is a fault tolerance set member name; it refers to a fault tolerance partition. There is a bad sector on one of the disks on one side of the mirror set. Your data security is at some risk. There is still a good sector on the other side of the mirror set, and the probability that the same sector number will go bad on both sides of the mirror is quite low.

To regain complete data security, do the following: (1) examine the event logs to identify which drive has the bad sector; (2) back up all data on that drive; (3) reformat the drive, using the verify switch to map out the bad sector; and (4) restore the backed up data.

[WINS Service]

This server tried to communicate with another WINS server, but got no response within the time-out period. The problem is with either the network or the other server. Either one may be slow (probably due to a temporary overload). Or WINS on the other server may have encountered an error that left it unable to respond.

Check the Event log to find out what push or pull partner WINS was trying to communicate with. Then check that server's Even log to find out what the problem is, and take appropriate action. If there appears to be no problem on the remote server, check the network and routers that connect the servers.

The timeout value is invalid.

[Kernel32]

In a distributed (RPC) application, the client can specify the relative amount of time that should be spent to establish a relationship to the server before giving up. There is a small set of numbers that can be specified to represent the relative time (it is not measured in seconds), and apparently an invalid number has been used.
