    Having many separate problems that all stem from one of my drives corrupting.


    Hi,It all started one day when my hdd D: drive got corrupted, after a few restarts and a bit of troubleshooting I got it to work again, until one day my laptop ran into a BSOD while playing Minecraft with my friends, if that helps out. My laptop didn't turn back on and was stuck on the Windows boot logo screen for over 20 minutes, thats when I decided to restart my device. My laptop turned on as normal, but under the Windows boot screen there was a text that said repairing E: drive, I never even had an E: drive beforehand, when it finally booted everything seemed normal until my hdd started ma

    Corrupt Hard Drive! URGENT!!

    DATA CORRUPTION MAY BE CAUSED BY CREATIVE SOUND CARD!!

    It took me months to discover that my new computer was having its data corrupted by my Creative Audigy 2 sound card. I did extensive testing. Since it would produce errors in burning DVD's I simply burned a DVD-RW twice every time I installed new software and drivers. I can confirm absolutely that it is my Audigy 2 card. I don't know whether the card has a defect (it worked in my old system) or has a conflict with my system (see below). The data corruption was so severe that any part of any hard drive could get corrupted data. Very scary! I've removed my card and drivers and thoroughly tested it with ALL my software and drivers and there's not a hint of a problem.

    Warning: When testing assume that any hard drive attached will be corrupted. If you have two hard drives (you should), dump your data to the hard drive you are not using and physically remove the power and data cables. Use a backup solution such as Acronis True Image and backup your c-drive periodically so you can RESTORE your c-drive if corruption occurs. Make sure your image is NOT on the hard drive you are using if you are unsure if it will get corrupt. (back up to DVD-R/RW if possible)

    Once the corruption is isolated, you should FORMAT and PARTITION your main drive, install your Operating System, backup your cdrive and set a recurring reminder to backup your data and/or cdrive to DVD.
    My system:
    Gigabyte, GA-K8N Ultra SLI NF4 (NForce4 chipset)
    Geforce 6600GT 128MB
    2GB 3200 SDRAM
    Athlon 64 3000+
    Audigy 2 (no longer)
    *I tested a SATA and IDE hard drive separately. I tested three separate power supplies and two motherboards of the same model. The problem persisted in all cases. I also tested with a fresh XP and XP x64 installation with only basic NVidia motherboard drivers installed. If it's not Creative's "fault" then it may be a conflict with NVidia's motherboard chipset and/or drivers. (mismanaged data transfer?)
