While using GAGEtrak I got an error message that says, “Windows – Delayed Write Failed." This is followed by other errors including an error that says my data is lost.

The Windows – Delayed Write Failed message does not reflect a problem with GAGEtrak or its database; it is caused by a Novell Netware setting. We do not support Novell, but perhaps the following information obtained from Novell’s website may be helpful in correcting the problem:
