Disk drive problems

Problems with the hard disk or with a diskette drive usually show
up as an inability to access the disk or as sector errors. Sometimes
a disk problem may cause one or more files to appear to have
garbage in them. Typical disk problems are:
You are having trouble accessing a disk, or one or more files
appear to be missing.
Make sure you are identifying the drive by its correct name (A: or
C:).
Run ScanDisk, which analyzes the directories, files and File
Allocation Table (FAT) on the disk and repairs any damage it
finds:
To run ScanDisk:
1 Click Start, point to Programs, Accessories, System Tools
and click ScanDisk.
2 Click the drive you want to test.
3 Select the type of test you want to use.
A thorough test is more complete but takes much more time
than a standard test.
4 Click Start.
ScanDisk tests the disk.
