Hi all,
Perhaps someone can help here.
I use Windows XP.
Tried to do a disk fragmentation (just as for good housekeeping) and it refuses that with message:""Disk fragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled to run on volume C
Please run Chkdsk/f. ""
I have tried to initiate this Chkdsk/f through "Run" with no reaction.
It does the same on one other disk (have installed Partition Magic some time ago and split the disk in several sections) but OK for the other disk sections.
Now, this started at the same time as I started to get an automatic check(?) function launching at PC startup. It goes through its routine for a few minutes and than starts up XP.
ALso have contracted a 'window freezing' during some www visits and have to manually shutdown.
I run just about everything mentioned in "Guide for Eliminating Spyware, Adware, and Random Popups" and have done so for several months and have regularly loaded every essential update on microsoft.com.
Does anyone recognise this?
I never asked for a "run Chkdsk/f"
Thanks in advance.
