Taped 3 shows last night and the last show (Sonic Youth) won't copy off my card. I get a cyclical redundancy error every time. NOw when I load the card in my Marantz 660 it doesn't see the files, yet when I use the deck in USB mode (to copy files onto my computer) I can see it there. I know that I got the recording because I already listened to a sample. I can even play the file through my computer when it's in my deck.
What can I use to recover the file? I did a search and came up with chkdsk/f but I can't get that to start running. It says that the drive is already in use.
Any suggestions? i have to leave in a few hours to the 2nd day of this fest and need to clear of the card!
Try one of these programs.

My frinds CF card froze up and he was not able to do anything with it. I downloaded one of these programs (Cannot remember which one) and it resolve the problem. The only drawback is the the two photo's that where corrept I was unable to save.
Chkdsk should work. Some other process is accessing that drive. Close all other windows like MyComputer or Windows Explorer. If that doesn't work, then reboot and open up a command window and run chkdsk /f first.

thanks folks. I finally got CHKDSK to work. Took a lot of trial and error.
