  • Method and computer-readable medium for loading the contents of a data file
    Publication number: 20060136476
    Abstract: A method and computer-readable medium are provided for loading the contents of an electronic data file. According to the method, corrupted portions of a data file are identified and an attempt is made to repair these portions. If the corrupted portions cannot be repaired, the loading of these portions is skipped. The uncorrupted and repaired portions of the data file are then loaded into memory. If portions of the data file cannot be repaired or skipped, an attempt is made to load only the user data contained in the data file. In this manner, the user data contained in the data file may be loaded even in cases of severe corruption.
