Ok. A few months ago we had a file corruption problem with our 4.1 server
and a seagate 4G drive. We finally figured out that over 1.g support 
should be disabled on the adaptec SCSI controller.. everything worked after
we reformatted (low-level) the disks. 

However.. now.. the files I restored from tape. some of them evidently were
corrupted still and were written in a corrupted format. If someone tries to 
access these files the server utilization jumps from 5-10% to 95-100% and
does not allow people to log-in.. So I would like to erase these files, 
but whenever I try, it hangs the PC and utilization goes up. I have
tried to do a vrepair on the volume w.o any success. Still does the same
thing. I would like to see if there is a way to fix this without backing
up/deleting/restoring the volume.. 

Thanks.

Troy
