The first time I turned on comp it read Chkdsc is verifying indexes correcting error in index $SDH for file 9 insuff disc space to correct errors correcting error in index $S11 for file 9 insuff disk space to correct errors. The drive is either too full to chkdsk or is pretty dead. Help! Try replacing the hard drive. Hope you have it properly backed up. |

Help! I'm new to group nice to meet y'all. Basically they're suggesting that you delete some unneeded files to free up space on the disk and then rerun "chkdsk /f" on that disk until it works. They don't mention how much space you need. But chances are that you will probably need as much space as needed to completely copy the file being fixed. So if the file with the problem is 1 GB in size, then you'll need at least 1 GB of free space. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l.../cc975177.aspx Yousuf Khan |

Wouldn't there be a SMART warning if it was that bad? A SMART warning requires a) a SMART tool, whoch Microsoft does not have and b) a failed SMART status. The sacoen may not be present even on a dying drive due to over-optimistic thresholds. Arno |
