When I boot up my 3000, the workbench loads fine, then I get a requester telling me I have a checksum error at block 15,194 of my hard drive. There's no trouble accessing anything I've tried to use so far, but the drive does not get validated, so I am unable to write anything to it. Was this caused by something I did? And what can I do to correct this, (hopefully not reformatting)? Thanks for any help, *----------------------|-----------------------------* -- Steve Neas -- | Look!
