yes, i did a HDD check when i first noticed this problem. It proceeds fairly fast until 3/4 of the way and then appears to stop. As i had other things to do i couldn't keep watching but later when i was back it had either completed the check or maybe, i don't know if this is possible, exited without completing the check
another check this morning and it appears the same thing is happening again. I don't remember the HDD make that was installed but it was rated for PVR use.
Anyway, it's looking like the problem is HDD related to ideally what i'd like to do is try to copy files that i would like to keep off of it and instal them on a new HDD to stick in the P2, of course these are files that the P2 isn't showing the names of but is showing that HDD space is being taken up. These files are in a music folder created on the P2.
Are there windows programs that can do what i'm wanting to do?
Or, is there somewhere i can send the HDD to get this done?
Or am i better off forgetting it and getting a new PVR that can at least do most all that the P2 can do
