Answer» Hey guys,
Well i have the 1 GB MicroSD in my Samsung D900, and recently a few folders with very odd names have appeared. The names are below: BBONETH.~1M
X
~
ÿÿN
When I try to delete them all it says is 'Cannot read from file source or disk', and when I try to delete them via my D900 it says 'No Entry'.
Also I have alot of pictures of me and my mates on it, but would like to delete a few that I have backed up on my HDD. However when i try to delete them via my laptop it gives me the exact same 'Cannot read from file source or disk' error.
Any ideas?!?!
Thanks
ChrisGood to see you again Chris...where ya been ?
Have you ran chkdsk on that laptop recently ? ?
If not go ahead and run chkdsk /r...
Then re-boot into safemode and see if you can remove the offending files.
If not we'll bring out the big guns !Hey mate. Thanks, yea Ive had a really rough time lately. Alot of stuffs just decided to all happen at once. Ive also been with my mates loads just chilling all the time. Doing what teenagers do.
Anyway back to the problem:
Sorry for my newbie question but do I need my D900 plugged in at this time, as they are on my D900.
Thanks bud
ChrisWell i don't normally run chkdsk on flash drives but it did bail me out once with a stubborn one...
Is the rest of the data backed up just in case ? ?
I have also had good success with the following little utility:
Flash Drive Disinfector
Let us know how it goes...Nope
Problems still there.
However just something I thought you should know, even when I dont plug my D900 in when i run the Disinfecter it still says 'Done'.
Its connected via USB with my D900 in 'Mass Storage' mode.
Any more ideas?!
Thanks
ChrisThe disinfector can't tell real drives from flash...i noticed that the 2nd time i ran it i had no flash drive plugged in and it still said done.
Did you try removing the files in safemode ? ?Have TRIED to delete from the command prompt? From WINDOWS explorer? Have you looked to see what attributes are set on the folders?QUOTE from: 2k_dummy on September 10, 2007, 12:47:57 PM Have tried to delete from the command prompt? From windows explorer? Have you looked to see what attributes are set on the folders?
Done all three. Attributes have the 'Archive', 'Read Only' and 'Hidden' all unticked.
Patio ill just try safe mode now.
Back in a moment.
ChrisNope
ChrisCan you OPEN the folders? If there are any files in the folders that have h,s,r, attributes set, the folders often will not delete. Deltree or equivelent command might do the trick.Nope, when I try to go into them I get an error message
'G:\Music\(and then the file name) is not accessible.
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorect'
Any more ideas guys?!
Thanks

How old is your flash drive? You know they don't really last all that long. If you do a lot of data transfers or writes to the drive it could have reached its limit. Just buy another one off newegg for $10 Perhaps you should just reformat the drive, that can take care of any file system errors, which can result in circumstances like the one you currently have (weird file names, random errors)
Killbox didin't work
And its not really one that I can 'Just buy another'. Micro SD's aren't cheap, though if I pulled a few strings I could get one fairly cheap. Anyway I've only had it about 6 months and it shouldn't be dying on me already. I think ill try a format Zlystra.
Thanks All!
Chris
