This sounds like a problem with a piece of hardware (a cache memory chip), either on your motherboard, or on your hard drive's controller (a read-ahead buffering chip). Being hardware, you cannot ''fix it'', only replace the faulty chip. You can replace the cache memory chip if it's on your motherboard, though you'll have to: locate it, remove it, identify it, find a source, order a replacement chip, and reinstall the new chip without damaging it. Look for a shareware memory-testing utility, and run it on your computer. To test your hard drive, you might be able to download a trial version of SpinRite (http://www.grc.com/sr/spinrite.htm), put it on a bootable floppy, and see what kind of errors it finds on your hard drive's electronics. If the problem's in the hard drive's controller's cache chip, you could attempt to back-up the drive, then send it back to the manufacturer for repair. Hopefully the warranty is still good. If you are not computer hardware-handy. you should take your computer into a computer repair shop and have them diagnose and fix it.
There are different type of cache memory: processor cache memory, cache memory ram,1 cache memory l2, cache memory, CPU cache memory, disk cache memory, hard disk cache, cache memory motherboard.

No cache memory is not visible.....
Register memory are smaller in size than cache memory and registers are faster than cache..Cache memory store the frequently used data from main memory..
sram is used for cache for cache memory.
The maximum size of a cache memory is theoretically equal to the amount of primary memory(RAM).Like Cache only memory architecture where the whole memory space is filled up with the cache only.
Cache Memory is needed because Hardware implements cache as a block of memory for temporary storage likely to be used again.
Cache memory is smaller and quicker, primary memory larger and slower.
memory cache is on memory RAM, disk Cache is on the hard drive. They make things to get faster. For instance Google Earth use this disk cache to show you offline images.
l1 cache l2 cache
cache memory is neither main memory nor second memory. DDR's are Main memory and Disk is second memory.
because cache memory is costlier than main memory and physical size of cache memory also matters.ignoring the cost , if we use large cache memory, it will take larger physical space.so mother board won't be able to accomodate it
