Recently launched new aircraft in FS 2002 to observe it going totally nuts and ripping across the aerodrome .. the PC crashed (as well as the new plane..) but it is not unusual for FS 2002 to hang up.
On reboot the resultant blue scan disk screen refused to scan and soon a note was posted to the effect that "Scandisk had encountered data error while reading FAT in drive C.." Running a thorough scan produced the result that while some errors had been fixed there was damage that scandisk could not repair.. I cannot defrag and this is necessary prior to a large install planned.
Do I throw the PC away, take out a bank loan, or take a dive into the Basingstoke Canal?
Actually, the PC is running very well apart from this problem
Ath 1700 XP/ Geforce 3/ 512 Megachunks RAM/ the hard drive was 60 giggles but now could be anything...........oh and its run by W98 SE.
Would appreciate help on this - is it a fixable thing d'ya think or how the heck do I find out the root problem, as scandisk only tells me that I have a problem..
Thanks guys
