    Have a portable drive with a video recorded from an Amiko Mini Combi that I'd like to transfer to my PC. However, the drive is labelled as corrupted when I connect to my PC. Is there any way to get the video file off the hard drive?

    What OS is you PC running?
    If Windows then maybe it just does not want to recognise the filesystem on the drive?

    I tried recording something else on a different USB stick and it worked on the PC. So I think it just managed to get corrupted unfortunately.

    That may be the case but it could still depend on where each device was first formatted.

    A preformatted USB or one formatted on a PC will likely be recognised by your PC.

    If you let the box format it (or initialise sometimes used as the term) chances are its something like a Ext3/4 Linux file system.

    I suspect not.

    I suspect it is a WIndows fault.
