Full Disk Related > File or Directory is corrupted

[Guest]

Hello thanks for reading!
I accidentally filled my non-system WD 160 NTSF drive all the way. I triied
to delete some files, but realized I needed most of them. I then took the
approack to compress old file with the disk utiity. After starting I
realized because the disk was running so slow this was going to take days. I
cancelled the compression and it seemed to start uncompressing files and
Windows Crashed Blue Screen of death...

Real problems begin. I restarted my pc and now I always get a check disk
screen before the desk top. It always says Unable to read the security
descriptors data stream. Then it boots and there are several files that
either are corrupted or the directory is corrupted and they hang Windows
quite badly.

Finally if I connect this drive to a linux box the file are there and they
are fine!!!
Can anyone tell me how to fix this (i am assuming it is a direcotry error)
error with my files?

Slave the drive in the linux box and use your favorite burning program
(I like k3b) to burn all data to cd-r's. Then put the drive back in
your Windows box and format the drive, first deleting any partitions.
Start over.
