Scandisk in Win2000???

[Christop99]

I have a win2000 machine and I would like to run scandisk on it, but I don't know how to at all, since it is no longer in the system tools menu. Where do I run it??? Thanks

you could go to the command prompt and type:

c:\chkdsk

like scandisk, it checks the file system etc.

Another option is to right-click your hard drive in My Computer or Explorer, select Properties, go to the Tools tab, and click the "Check Now" button.

CHKDSK provides more flexibility and options, though. Type CHKDSK /? at a command prompt to see all the different command line switches available. (CHKDSK /F is possibly the most common usage -- the "/F" switch tells CHKDSK to fix errors it finds.)
