Technician Notes:

Pre-flight system checkout was OK, but when DiscWin was started during APU power, DISK0 failed; message read:
DSMDisk: 777 DISK FULL, closing disk file(s), continuing
Winds would not start; error msg said it could not read header
Worked fine after replacing disk
No other problems on flight
