There has to be something wrong with utilities

Which give a clean bill of health after scanning

And then the next boot up indicates a difficulty

... "Sector not found reading drive C" jamming



The POST operation and hanging up the system

... A serious malady for which there's no real cure

Other than to reformat and to have missed them

... Those files which weren't backed up for sure



So a tedious reworking of an entire drive's now in order

A dreaded task full of its very own pitfalls and problems

But something needed to be done as soon as recorder

Has logged it all and categorized all those little gems
