Hi !

Is this program available anywhere via internet ?

I bought a defective conner- CP174-harddisk. I had to ll-format it, cause 
fdisk and format did not work.
Now it works, but it has no more autocorrection, i.e., it has over 2 MBytes in 
bad sectors. 
I need a program that turns the autocorrection of the HD on again.

Read U, thanks in advance, Richard.   e9125356@stud1.tuwien.ac.at
