- Does anyone know how to correct this problem? About every 6 months a
- situation will arise where the system crashes while it is writing to the
- hard disk. When I reboot, I get a disk error due to a bad key. The disk
- won't validate. I can still read from it except for the file that was being
- written when the crash occurred. I cannot, however, write to the hard disk
- because it is not validated. I usually reformat the disk and start from
- scratch, but it seem like it should be fixable. (Like if you could override
- the need for validation and erase the corrupt file). Any ideas? or pd programs
- I should know about?
- Much Thanks
