| Vista Home PRemium | Formatted to NTFS but Backup still fails Hi, I recently bought a 500GB external harddrive. I installed it, tried backing-up and this failed with error message 0x81000008 (Corrupt File System). So, I found this excellent forum and reformatted the drive from FAT32 to NTFS and lo and behold it worked! Yeay! I then started to archive all my MP3s, movies, photos, etc. A week or so later I have just tried to backup again and the process has failed with the same error message! I have scanned the disk for errors (none reported) and the disk manager confirms that the drive is in an NTFS format. I am loathed to "un-archive" all those tunes & clips, etc in order to try re-formatting again. Any suggestions?!?!? Pauli2Hands |
