Default Error on pst file

Hi

I am getting a cyclic redundancy error on my pst file. The errors seems to
come towards the end when copying the file. The file open in Outlook but
does not show reminders. What are my choices of recovering as much as
possible from this file?

For future is there a way to maintain a copy of this file while one carries
on working in outlook?

Thanks

Regards

A CRC errror tends to indicate a hardware issue. Run CHKDSK a couple of
times. Then, create a new PST, make it your delivery location (if you're
currently using the old PST as the delivery location), and copy the contents
of the old PST to the new one.
