10. When adding Classic SL Network Drive to my computer, why does
the "ADD" button stay gray?
You may not have entered all the alpha-numeric values correctly. There are
no letter "O"s; please verify that you have used the number "0" (zero) for
anything resembling an "O." Also please check by our other letters as well;
two V’s may look like a W. Start by entering only the Classic SL Network Drive
ID. The ADD button should not be greyed out if the correct ID is entered.
Once it is not greyed out, proceed to add the Write Key as well.
Please also make sure that there are 20 characters for the Classic SL Network
Drive ID, not including the Write Key.
11. I installed the Classic SL Network Drive key but cannot see Classic SL
Network Drive in "My Computer." What should I do?
Click on the Classic SL Network Drive Admin Tool in your System tray and
make sure Classic SL Network Drive is enabled. There should be a dot next
to your Classic SL Network Drive, colored either Blue (Read/Write) or Green
(Read Only). If it is a black colored dot, then please go to the FAQ: "I’ve
installed my Classic SL Network Drive and it shows up as a Black Dot."
If Classic SL Network Drive is enabled, open "Computer Management" by
right -clicking on "My Computer." Go to "Manage," then click on "Disk
Management." Check if your Classic SL Network Drive is recognized. It
should show up as Disk 1 or Disk 2 or a different number depending on the
number of drives that you have on your computer. Right -click on the
appropriate "Disk #" and click "Initialize." if that option exists.
Also make sure that the Classic SL Network Drive is partitioned and format-
ted. If you see something that says "Unallocated," then right-click on the
"Unallocated," create a partition, and then format the drive to your file
system preference.
To use Classic SL Network Drive with other Operating Systems such as
Windows 98SE / ME, and Mac OS X, you will need to format your Classic SL
Network Drive to FAT32 for it to be recognized.
12. Why am I getting a "Data has been corrupted" message when I try
to open or copy a file?
Open up Command Prompt and run "chkdsk" for the Classic SL Network
Drive drive.
Go to Start - Run - type in "cmd" without the quotation marks.
Then type in "chkdsk Classic SL Network Drive DriveLetter: /F"
For example, if your Classic SL Network Drive shows up as drive letter E: in
My Computer, you would type in the following: chkdsk E: /F
