Forum:Disk errors? File corruption? Simple fix

Have you ever disconnected your Screen Play Pro from your Tv only to find out that when you reconnected it with your computer, the file system was damaged or you now have corrupted files?

Well, I have a simple solution in Windows Xp.

Before going any further, find out what letter is assigned to your screenplay drive by clicking on My Computer and searching for the drive.

Open up a command prompt. Click Start, Click Run and in the box enter "cmd" and hit enter.

When the black box appears, type "chkdsk /f /x :"

For example: chkdsk /f /x I:

Windows will now run a scan on your drive fixing any corrupted or fragmented files. I have noticed that if you disconnect your drive before a complete power down, errors will occur. Most of the time, I will see folders that contain movies in them, turn into a fragmented file. Chkdsk will fix the drive every time and I haven't lost any valuable data yet.
