checking and correcting corrupted files

are u seeing a lot of corrupted files that wnt open ir give u a lot of errors when u try to open them?

then the solution is plain n simple it follows

scan disk will test ur drive for file errors and media problems.

select
start--my computer right click on ur drive and then choose properties. click the check now button in the error-checking area. when the check disk dialouge box opens click the start button to run the test without checking any options. if scan disk returns errors, rerun the test with both disk options selected.

make sure u rescan the drive every few dayz for new errors. if the drive remains error free,it probably works fine. if however u fiond new errors with increasing frequency,the drive may be headed for failure.back up ur files and replace the drive at the earliest

if u cant find the drive option in my computer then u will have to go the the explorer and then right click on the drive that u wanna scan

then go to the tools tab there n then u can scan for errors

Turn off automatic restart in Xp

By default XP is set to restart at a serious system failure, sometimes causing the system to be caught in an infinite [and annoying] loop.

Change the default setting now before you need to by;


Clicking Start>Control Panel>System.

Click the Advanced tab.

Click the Settings button under Startup and Recovery.

Remove the tick from the box next to Automatically Restart under System Failure.

Click OK.

The next time you have a serious system failure, rather than reboot, your PC should present you with a blue screen of death with an error message.

By posting the error message the fault can be more easily determined and the remedy found.
