hi question for everyone...
I have WinXP Prof...
when I try and schedule a chkdsk on my next reboot (start --> run --> chkdsk /f --> click 'y' to schedule) when I reboot nothing happens it just boots normally...
I can't do a chkdsk! can anyone help?
thanks
I don't even get the WindowsXP screen where you would see the chkdsk... it acts like nothing is scheduled
also some background information, b4 this happened I was able to run a chkdsk but it told me cannot access system volume for check or something like that, I booted off the CD and ran a chkdsk that way...now I can't run it at all!
please help!!

Sounds like you need to clear some entries in a reg tree but I don't know which one.

OP
I did a search on chkdsk
nothing about booting, etc

OP
thank you!!
It also seemed that Diskeeper was causing the chkdsk not to run
once I uninstalled it...it was fine!
thanksagain
