I have seen this happen several times if repair company does not work then you need to consider having your data repaired.

If you are getting frequent i/o errors you almost certainly have a hardware or system problem. Peachtree itself does not produce i/o errors, only the underpinnings on which it stands - Btrieve and Windows - do.

You will probably want to search for previous threads on this problem since the solution has been discussed many times, but here is a quick summary of things to look for:

1. Mismatched brands of network cards.

2. Faulty cables, especially at 100BaseT.

3. Flaky network hubs or switches.

4. Badly fragmented server.

5. Running a non-professional version of Windows such as 98, ME, or XP-Home.

You may want to also have your data professionally checked
since there may already be some damage in your backup that
is creating further problems.
