Have you restarted the system?
I installed Diskeeper. I enabled the Check Disk option. It would not check
disk. It would not let me Defragment because it has to Check Disk 1st. I
uninstalled Diskeeper. I tried to defragment with the Windows
defragmentation application. It won't let me defragment. I get a box that
says I have to Check disk 1st. Diskeeper must have put something in my
registry. I tried a system restore & a sfc /scannow with the Windows CD. It
still doesn't work. Here's a picture of the message that I get.
Any advice?
Thanks

Have you restarted the system?
Have you tried it in safemode?
It seems to get stuck in safe mode, on drivers.
mmm.... I'd try booting into the recovery console and run a check disk from there.

Once into the recovery console, run the command:
chkdsk
And that should check the disk for errors.
To repair and fix any errors use the:
chkdsk /R /F

Try that first and see if you can get rid of the errors related to chkdsk...
Disk errors can be indicative of a failing hard drive... (just to be safe I would back up anything very important)... but it's probably not failing!
What Big said worked.
Thank you all very much.![]()
I did this. It said the volume had errors. It said it fixed them. I ran the
CHKDSK a couple days later. It found errors again & fixed them. Do you think
my hard drive is failing? I have my PC on about 12 hours a day. My PC is
under 4 years old.
Thank you all for replying.
