Hello all,
I recently re-installed W7, made a few backups of all the important stuff to my HDD, some of those being my heavily modded Skyrim,Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas, these took days to make and are over 30GB's each, I would rather not have to go to through that again if possible, however when I try to copy them over it will freeze when trying to copy certain files claiming "The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error" after searching online it seems the problem is the hard drive.
I am currently running chkdsk to see if there are any errors but its gonna take a while and I thought in the mean time I would ask on here, also after some more searching online it would seem I need to resize the volume however I am unsure if that is even a solution, im hoping someone here with more experience than myself can chime in and get me back up and running
Thanks for reading.
