Are you talking about a DVD? Or an external Hard Drive? If it's a hard drive: you can try just ignoring the error and see if you can copy your files over anyway. I've heard of people having success doing this.
You can try running a checkdisk on the drive. Just run it from within windows as usual but point it to whatever letter the external drive is. Be sure to tell it to auto-fix errors. Also you can try plugging the hd into a different computer to see if you get the crc error. Could be a prob with your USB port or controller - I've had this happen on my own machine, and the files read fine on a different computer. If ;you are talking about crc errors on a DVD or CD on an internal optical drive... I dunno of of a fix - other than clean the disk really good. Good luck, Donk PS: I don't know any free recovery app. Maybe someone else will - or you should post to a forum with more traffic than this one.
