See "How to Perform Disk Error Checking in Windows XP"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=315265).
To automate this, create a Scheduled Task for any of your
applications, then open the Properties for this task and overwrite the
command-line with a CHKDSK command-line. For details type
CHKDSK /?
at a DOS prompt.
