Panasonic M # DMR-E100H, While recording, came to end of disk...started writing, @ 61 %, locked up, then went into diagnostics...& stayed there. Can Windows XP Pro read this hard drive, to check it? If not, how do I check it without formating it? Also, if I FDISK it, how do I make it ready for the recorder? Thanks, Dani.

the content on the disk is could be encrypted, if so it is illegal to decrypt in most cases because of piracy. you can thank the digital millenium copyright act for that, if they encrypt any media, it is illegal to decrypt exept on aproved machines with alot of regulations on what they can do. i have a disk utility called "R-Studio" its free(for a while) and it does not need the drive to have normal style partitions or files, ti will telll you what is on the disk, not what the data means, and it can alow you to copy the data into a 'disk image file' a bit for bit copy of the disk so that you can format or other wise.
