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.
3
Click Check Now , then click Start . Your drive is checked
for errors. This process may take several minutes.
After Windows has finished checking the drive for
errors, it provides a summary of the problems that it
found.
4
Correct any problems that are found by following the
on-screen instructions.
5
Click OK .
Important
Error checking cannot scan a drive while the drive is being used,
so if you try to check your hard drive for errors, you see a prompt asking
you if you want to scan the hard drive later (the next time you restart
your computer). If you see this prompt, click
Schedule disc check , then
restart your computer.
