Hi there,
I can't figure this out!
Toshiba Satellite A80 (psa80a-05z009)
1.6GHz
504 MB of RAM
XP Home edition
SP3
I was backing up one HD (MEDION MD90046, 250GB, USB) to another via USB, when the computer decided to go into standby (I thought I turned that off!). It got stuck on the 'going into standby' screen and I turned it off and on at the power.
When I tried to backup the same drives again the computer started acting up, hang on a screen for ages, nothing copies, slow, ...
"Delayed Write Failed, $Mft" and other filenames with $
Formatted the destination. Same
Changed the drive letters. Same
Tried to backup to another HD. Same
Tried to backup on another computer. No problem, everything copies.
But on my computer, the same behaviour.
The strange thing is that the drive functions perfectly when it is alone (will copy from and to internal HD), but sometimes as soon as another drive is connected to the USB the computer gets slow again. Sometimes it hangs completely. Sometimes it starts acting funny first when I try to copy something.
Well, thanks, if you have any ideas!
