Losing data

Toxcity · #1 18-06-07, 01:00 PM

I keep losing songs from my music drive.

For example.. I have all of Anthraxs Albums, I go into the fold with them in and the songs are still there but will not play and infomation is missing.

Check piccar!

What shall I do?

If u do a properties thing on the files, is the info there ?

Yeah, like the normal.

How big, what to open it with location.

But nothing in the summary. :eh:

@Ham - Already did that matey!

So when u goto the properties thing, those 2 files have no info in them and that`s why they`re not displaying in an explorer window.

I take it the info used to be there then ?

Yep all info used to be there.. let me just check a working file.

Edit: Working files have the summary filled in with Artist and names and lengh of song.. so on.

This is what im doing now.

Moving all 50GBs of stuff to another HDD and then going to scan this beast for bad sectors.

Then I made Zero the drive. Reformat and then see where I am..

If none of this works well, I will Buy a new HDD!

I Have jus had a similar problem and windoze kept crashing & Forcing CHKDSK, even After spyware & virus sweep.

After fresh install it was still doing it

Thought it was HDD problem so i installed Hard Drive Inspector Couldn't spot any probs, installed Speedfan

Not much of note until i notice the voltage's were all over the place.

Okay that just scared me sooo.. I got the multimeter out..

And my 12v line is running at 12.77v and the 5v is at about 5.33.

That to me sounds okay!

Anyone disagree?

So the tracks don`t actually play either ? Sorry missed that bit >.<
