    Hi

    I get the same error message repeatedly.  I have two external hard drives and have tried turning on each and saving to individual hard drives but the same message comes up.

    Help please asap

    Thanks

    The same happens for me too.  I have two external hard drives which I can save to.  I have turned on one and then the other hoping that I could at least save to one of them .. no luck.

    Please can you throw some light on this error asap

    Thanks

    Hi Sreekanth

    Neither method works for me, When I try to run task scheduler It gives me the corrupted task image message,so I cannot get any further. And when I try the command prompt method it says access denied....

    Any help with this woould be appreciated.

    Thanks
