Hi People,
Two things
1) I'm having problems deleting a folder from my hard disk. It's not hidden, doesn't have any restrictions on it (such as read-only access). It's just a basic folder. When I try to delete it, I get an error to the the effect "problem reading from disk". It's my secondary drive, I've deleted everything from it except this empty directory. I want to get rid of it - it's annoying! Is it possible that I have a defective sector on my drive?
2) I am using my secondary drive to back up my primary drive. I just want to be able to "copy and paste" the data from C: drive to F: drive. Is there any easy way of doing this? (Copy and paste results in errors due to attempts at copying system files...I want it to bypass these files.)
Any help greatly appreciated.
