Re: Chkdsk Failing to Start

I do not know which services are required to run chkdsk. The link which
follows gives information
/ recommendations as to settings:

Gerry,

It is a fairly long list. Are there any services that directly/indirectly
affect chkdsk startup and performance.

Having read several messages, no one appears to have my problem.
Today,
an
error message regarding C:|$MFT being corrupt popped-up and told me
to run
Chkdsk. I have not been able to get Chkdsk to run in either the cmd
prompt
or My Computer in either Normal Startup or Diagnostic Startup. Also,
I
ran
the Western Digital drive diagnostic and there was no errors. Any
assistance
is appreciated.

Sid
