I'm have been testing this problem (windows - write delayed failed) on
my machine since it had shown up recently. I rebuilt my machine from scratch
and it was during a combination of windows updates and a couple of windows
2000/XP registry tweaks that I had applied, that the problem started
occuring again.
This is what I've found and it may not apply to some of the problems
that you guys have. There is a very common tweak for 2000/XP circulating on
the web to enable LargeSystemCache. In essence it uses more of the system
RAM for caching. This is also the cause of my system getting the dreaded
'WDL' error upon boot up. I rebooted into safe mode and disabled the entry
from the registry and the problem immediately went away. Reapplied, and as
expected, the error returned upon reboot. I'm now running my Windows XP Pro
without that tweak. It doesn't seem to agree with a combination of the
latest DirectX 9a and other recent critical windows update.
The path for the LargeSystemCache is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Session
Manager/Memory Management/LargeSystemCache.
Value should be '0'
This value is also enabled if you had previous applied the AMD Athlon
DirectX8.1 fix from Microsoft.
Regards.

Just to confirm with Ckron and Moze31 that the "LargeSystemCache"
tweak caused the "Delayed write failed" errors on my comp. Also the
"DisablePagingExecutive" tweak gave me the same errors. Very strange because
my PC had been operating for over a year with these tweaks applied with no
problmes whatsoever.
Until last week my second HDD (maxtor 40 GB) broke down and i replaced
it with a WD800 JB (=same as my primary HDD). I reinstalled XP pro, updated
it with the latest patches and applied the registry tweaks, and the DWF
errors appeared after a reboot. After setting "DisablePagingExecutive" and
"LargeSystemCache" back to 0, the errors dissapeared.
Removed the second HDD and applied the tweaks again and still got the
DWF error. So i must agree with Moze31 that the error is caused by a
combination of the latest DirectX 9a and other recent critical windows
update. I'm planning a fresh install of XP Pro without any updates and see
if the errors are still occuring with these tweaks applied. I'll post
results later.
