Notesinger Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Sorry about posting in the wrong place Im using XP pro and its only that drive that does it i have 3 drives in it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrusk Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 (edited) Try going into properties on that drive then running check disk from the tools menu, then select automatically fix file system errors and scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors. That way, if there is errors, itll fix them and not bug you again. If that doesnt work, i would get a hard drive diagnosis program and see what the health status of your dirve is.

Hades25 Posted October 23, 2003 Posted October 23, 2003 for myself..i would just rename the chkdsk.exe file in c:\windows\system32 <--i think its here that should work..but if you need to run it again then you need to change it back of course Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FxXP Posted October 23, 2003 Posted October 23, 2003 Reboot with your XP CD, go into the Recovery Console. Logon with your administrator password into the Windows partition and run CHKDSK X: /P. X equals the drive letter that you are having problems with. If that does not help you..you have a corrupted partition that can only be fixed with formatting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
