Disc fixation is a process that is used to end the current recording session of a CD-R disc. This can refer to closing the current track-at-once session or closing the entire disc in a disc-at-once session. The main purpose of disc fixation is to ensure that the data is saved and cannot be overwritten or lost accidentally.
If you are experiencing hard drive problems, you can try using the Hard Drive Diagnostics or Repair utility built into the BIOS or EFI of most computers. Another option is to use the Windows 10 Check Disk (CHKDSK) tool. Both of these utilities are free and can be very effective in fixing hard drive problems.
How to Use the BIOS Utility
The BIOS utility is different for each manufacturer, but it is usually accessed by pressing the F10, F2, or Escape key during boot time. Look for a line of text on the screen that indicates how to access the utility. Once you have accessed the utility, use the diagnostics or repair tool to try to fix any hard drive problems that you are experiencing.
How to Use the Check Disk Tool
The Check Disk tool is built into Windows 10 and can be accessed through the Command Prompt. To use this tool, open the Command Prompt and type “chkdsk C:” (without the quotes) and press Enter. Replace “C” with the drive letter of the hard drive that you want to check. The tool will scan the drive for errors and attempt to fix any problems that it finds.
