Ok here is the problem.  Ive recently installed a hard drive in my amiga 1200 and it has been working fine for the last week.  Ive been installing games on it and having all kinds of fun.

Now, however, when i boot to the hard drive i get a system request box that says "Work  has a checksum error on disk block 552383".  If i press cancel the warning goes away and everything seems fine, games load as normal etc, but when i go to write anything to the disk i get another message saying
"Volume Work is not validated"
How can i fix this?
Thanks

1. 500mb
2. unknown
3. Workbench  3.0
4. probably not

Thanks

or just leave the disk to run the validate process until the end.

i will give DiskSalv a try.


no, don't do it. leave the disk to fixed by him self.
if this don't work THEN use the disksalv.
(i hate this program, for me was completly useless all the times i try to use it.)


-edit-
under os3.0/3.1 the best way is quarter back tools

yes it is, and of course you can't noticed because it is in rom. it's the diskvalidator once in workbench disk in l: directory. it's just for this purpose. when workbench boot searching for validating problems of any kind of disk and if it's find anything running the handler for the job. if you leave the disk along you will see for a long period the disk light on and the amiga will try to fix it. when the light turns off wait for a while and then reboot. if all gone well it will boot normaly. if not then use any disk salvage program you have.

it's not late to stop the damn program  :-)  and leave nature to do the job :-)

you have boot the amiga and what happens? the error message not present? normal way you just power on amiga and the disk start the validading process. you just have to wait until the light goes off.

but except the cancel button what else exist? what happens if you press the other button?
