    There were some ATAPI device detection problems in some of the earlier
    Windows nForce IDE drivers that would cause lockups during boot for some
    people depending on what type of devices were attached.

    There's never been any reports of Windows hangs that have been root
    caused to C1 disconnects that I'm aware of.
