lcohen999 0 Posted April 17, 2003 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. Share this post Link to post
lcohen999 0 Posted April 17, 2003 I did a search on chkdsk nothing about booting, etc Share this post Link to post
lcohen999 0 Posted April 18, 2003 thank you!! It also seemed that Diskeeper was causing the chkdsk not to run once I uninstalled it...it was fine! thanksagain Share this post Link to post
