Please help! I have GS (ROM 01) with a Seagate SCSI drive (40 Meg). I use SALVATION to back up my hard drive. My last good back-up was about two months ago. My hard drive recently got sick, and some of the files have gone bad. I would like to reformat, etc., after first backing up everything on the hard drive. The problem is that SALVATION craps out when a corrupt file is encountered, unless the file type has been changed to BAD. DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A UTILITY (FREE-, SHARE-, OR COMMERCIAL-WARE) THAT WILL SCAN THE ENTIRE DRIVE AND CHANGE THE FILETYPE OF ALL CORRUPT FILES TO "BAD"? Copy II Plus will identify (but not change) bad files in one directory only. I have 1500 files over many directories! I have been told by my local dealer that ProSel "FixCat" might do this, but he didn't have one in the store and won't for a while. Your help would be greatly appreciated! -- Jim Dean Bell-Northern Research, Ltd |Jim Dean is a common name. Ph.:(613)763-2135 P.O.
