Yesterday  computer running Postgres re-boots suddenly. After that,

select * from firma1.klient

returns

ERROR:  invalid page header in block 739 of relation "klient"

I have Quantum Fireball IDE drive, write caching is turned OFF.
I have Windows XP with FAT32  file system.
I'm using PostgreSQL 8.0.2 on i686-pc-mingw32, compiled by GCC gcc.exe (GCC) 
3.4.2 (mingw-special)

Why the corruption occurs ?  How to avoid data corruption?
Will NTFS file system prevent all corruptions ? If yes, how to convert FAT32 
to NTFS without losing data in drive ?

Andrus.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
       choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
       match
