Hello to all Gurus

Before doing what U said when i try to read module 32 it goes till 75% and then gives " Module read error physical read error C/H/S -2/0-508 Techno CMD sending Device Error Detected 51/04 ABR read error " so it it a header problem or there is Bad Sector in SA.

and will your (Mikippp) meathord work.

Thanks

Guys ,
You Know Whats The Greatest Thing .When You Regenerate The Translator ,The Data Is Visible ,Why ?

1 :How Does The Regeneration of Translator Make Sure You Can Access The Same Sectors Which Have The Data .Even 1 Sector Misplacement Will Make Data Useless .This is a Beautiful Algorithm .Really Beautiful
