Modelsim Warning Hold Violation

I have a design that full compile without timing errors in TimeQuest but when I do gate level simulation I get: 

# Expected := 0.157 ns; Observed := 0.116 ns; At : 7740.295 ns# Time: 7740295 ps Iteration: 1 Instance: /schematic_tb/uut/my_signal..# ** Warning: */DFFEAS HOLD High VIOLATION ON DATAIN WITH RESPECT TO CLK; 

 

a lot of times at different time 

 

Why? Should I do something? With TimeQuest I haven't hold violations. 

 

Thanks

Do you have time specs for these registers? Are they async latches?

I just solved. With Design Assistant I found reset signal that are async and caused this problem during simulation that was not catched by TimeQuest. 

 

Thank you anyway
