hi...

I'm running Outlook 2007 and today I couldn't backup my PST-file because of
an stubborn CRC error which keep popping up.
So I tried to run SCANPST but same error.
Then I downloaded an HDD tool from the manufacturer of the computer, but it
didn't fix it either.

It's a Pakard Bell Easynote with a 80GB Travelstar 4K120-80 HDD running
Windows XP SP2 Norwegian edition.

I know I'm on the wrong newsgroup, but can anyone send me in the right
direction towards a solution?

Sounds as if the file is borked. Time to discard and reconstruct.
I expect the file contains a location that holds the CRC, which was
calculated and installed when the file was last altered. This
requires detailed knowledge, including the actual CRC polynomial.

This site has a few suggestions as well.

The Event viewer show an error-ID 7
Seems like at physical fault on the disk surface.

I cannot backup my PST file at all!

I remember back in the days of the early nineties when there where a bunch
of software to extract data for partially damaged sectors. They where run
from the DOS prompt.

Is there a similar solution available today for NTFS formatted HDDs?
