Is it possible to run a scan disk on a memory stick to repairs any bad sectors.
I have a 4gb Sony Memory stick which comes up with corrupted files.
I was wondering if there is a program which can repair.
Regards Assad

Do you know for sure it is the memory card that is going bad? Have you tried your file on another memory stick? As for a repair method, I don't know of any. usually if a flash media goes bad, it goes bad hard. At least in my validation experience. I have tools that can make flash media go bad in less than 5 minutes lol.

IT IS A PROVEN FACT THAT IF YOU USE COUNTERFEIT MEMORY STICKS LIKE THE ONES I PURCHASED ON ebay, YOU WILL GET 1 WORKING VIDEO BUT ALL OTHERS WILL BE CORRUPTED. I THEN SWITCHED TO GENUINE SONY MEMORY STICKS AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS SINCE.
