Andromeda43 Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 M$ provides "Chkdsk" for that purpose, in every install of Windows.For a tech, there's always "Spinrite 6" from Steve Gibson (www.grc.com).It's NOT free, but every tech should have a copy. I got my first copy in the late 80's. Cheers!Andromeda43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
