Something happened last night with my second hard drive where I have plenty of music.When windows started they said something about corrupted files on the drive and scandisk started.Then it deleted some files as I saw and when I entered windows whenever I try to open the drive it says that the disk is unreadable or the files might be corrupted. Can I do something to save my 300GB of music?
you need to do a "chckdsk x:/f" on the drive in question, x = the drive letter of the drive that is giving problems. You can also try to do a scandisk but make sure the box to fix errors is checked. If that doesn't work, download the free "testdisk" it can fix unreadable partitions, but it also has an addon "photorec" that can recover files off of corrupted partitions. As long as you don't reformat your drive, you should be able to recover most of your files. http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
i see u r using an old version of windows... scandisk is not on windows xp nor vista but on ME, 98, NT and so on... try to reinstall windows...HDD is still fine as long as it can still be detected by ur bios... there might be corrupted files that used to be system files on windows...i recommend u reinstall...
