Checking the hard drive for errors
The error-checking program examines the hard drive for
physical flaws and file and folder problems. This program
corrects file and folder problems and marks flawed areas on
the hard drive so Windows does not use them.
If you use your computer several hours every day, you
probably want to run error-checking once a week. If you use
your computer less frequently, once a month may be adequate.
Also use error-checking if you encounter hard drive problems.
To check the hard drive for errors:
1
Click (Start) then click Computer. The Computer
window opens.
2
Right-click the drive that you want to check for errors,
click Properties, then click the Tools tab.
