and DVDs). A cyclic redundancy check error can be caused by several different issues: registry corruption, a cluttered hard disk, an unsuccessful program installation, or misconfigured files. Regardless of the specific cause,

the cyclic redundancy check error is a serious one and must be addressed to avoid potential data loss or even a total system failure system. Luckily, there are a few simple ways to address this problem using (free) disk utility software.[1] Steps Method 1 Running the CHKDSK Utility 1 Access the CHKDSK utility. CHKDSK (or "check disk") is a built-in Windows utility that will scan and data error cyclic redundancy check windows 10 repair your drive's errors. It has the ability to find and repair a number of small errors or file corruptions that may be causing the cyclic redundancy error. Right click the drive you want to check, then click Properties->Tools. Under “Error Checking” click “Check Now”. If a CD or DVD disc is giving you this error it may be the result of a scratch or some dust. Try cleaning the disk with a soft cloth before anything else. Optical disk errors are often not repairable. If you get this error on a Mac (less common), first try the built-in Disk Utility and “Repair” the disk. 2 Decide on a basic versus an advanced scan. Check boxes to indicate if you’d like to do a basic check and repair or an advanced one - the default is the basic scan. The basic scan should take around 15-20 minutes while the advanced scan may take hours. Make sure you’ve got the time set aside and don't disturb the computer once it begins. 3 Reboot the computer to begin the scan. If scanning the main drive on your computer (the one you’re booted up on), CHKDSK will

If you ran it from within windows then boot to the command prompt and try CHKDSK before windows loads. Reply to almartin John_VanKirkJun 11, 2011, 9:03 PM Hello,Al's idea is great. If you can run chkdsk, add the /f switch to fix any bad sector errors.When you are activeliy using a HDD, or manipulating files on it when you abruptly lose power, you may have corrupted the open file, http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/270093-32-external-hard-drive-cyclic-redundancy-error or the file structure or partition of the HDD.To evaluate the HDD health, go to DiskMgmt and in the lower graphical section, list what it says in the Drive Status box, and in the Volume Status box just to the right. This will be your external removable HDD, listed possibly Disk1, or Disk 2 or 3 depending on how many fixed disks are on your Win-7 computer. Normally it should say Disk ?2, Basic, size_in_MB, Online. If it's a problem with the Disk organization, list those findings for us.

The drive is really inaccessible and sometimes it's giving me "drive invalid" error. I tried other methods but the only thing that worked was the SEA tools for windows from the manufacturer itself (I can't believe I haven't think of them in the first place). It took 16 hours for that application to fix my drive. Now it's working nicely. Thanks again everyone. Cheers! Reply to arlon madeline3456Feb 8, 2012, 5:12 AM THANK YOU - THANK YOU - T

CRC errors happen when there's a bad spot on the media of your hard disk. https://askleo.com/how_do_i_fix_a_cyclic_redundancy_check_error_when_i_try_to_copy_a_file/ Data recovery and disk repair are often possible with the right tools. //
Outlook started acting https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/343697-recovering-data-data-error-cyclic-redundancy-check up, so as part of my attempts to fix it I tried to copy the PST to another location. The copy failed part way through with a cyclic redundancy check error. How can I get past this and backup my data? The cyclic redundancy check, or "CRC" error, indicates a bad spot on your hard drive. The fact that you're seeing it when you try to copy cyclic redundancy a file indicates that the bad spot may be within the file itself. We need to verify that and then we need to try to recovery your file and repair your hard drive. First, let's make sure that the problem is actually with the file you're copying since it's equally likely that the problem is with the location you're copying too. This is easy. Fire up a Command Prompt window, and then copy the file to NUL: Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C) Copyright 1985-2001 cyclic redundancy check Microsoft Corp. C:>CD (to wherever the file is located) C:wherever>copy Outlook.pst NUL 1 file(s) copied. This reads the entire file by copying it "nowhere". If this succeeds, the problem is not actually with the file itself, but the location you were trying to copy it to. My recommendation would be to copy it to a different disk entirely, or a different machine on your local network. If this copy fails, then we've confirmed that the bad sector on your hard disk is actually being used by some portion of your file. • Now that we've confirmed that the problem is in fact in the file itself, we need to make as best a copy of it as we can, somewhere else. This sets a position of "it can't get any worse than this". Some data within the file may be lost, but you'll have copied as much as possible before the recovery efforts. Once again, we want to copy the file to some different hard disk, or some other machine on your local network. And once again we need to do this within the command prompt: Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp. C:>CD (to wherever the file is located) C:wherever>xcopy /c Outlook.pst D: 1 file(s) copied. Two important things to note here: we've used the xcopy (for eXtended copy) command, and we've added the "/C" switch which keeps copying even if errors are encountered. As you've already experienced, the default behavior of both COPY and XCOPYCommunity! Creating your account only takes a few minutes. Join Now Hi all, I've just been handed a laptop that won't boot to Windows and have found that the hard drive is most probably dying a horrible death as I'm getting a "Data error(Cyclic Redundancy Check)" message and a "format this disk" prompt every time I try to access the drive on another PC. At this point the owner is only really bothered about me getting a copy of his data because he doesn't have a backup (who'd have guessed that was coming!? :P). Does anyone have any ideas as to the best way to get the data off of this drive? The below link has some ideas but a few people also note that whenever they've seen the issue they've noticed the drive deteriorate rapidly (which is the same for me), so I don't really want to just start blindly trying things. http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/71151-how-to-resolve-the-problem-data-error-cyclic-redundancy-check?started_from=new_topic

If it does, you could try giving it a knock but I think it may be goosed.
