ChkDsk

[Jerry]

I have winXP, with 128mb of Ram and a 80gb HDD that has 6 partitions.
C-drive is the OS drive and D-drive is where all programs are installed.
All other drives are for data.

I have had this setup for about a month and it has been running smoothly.
Yesterday when the PC was started, it ran ChkDsk which was not scheduled. I
noticed it only ran the first 3 parts of ChkDsk instead of the normal 5
parts. After running ChkDsk, XP booted normally and everything looked fine.
I went to D-drive and tried to run Defrag. I got the message, "Cannot
perform defrag as D-drive is scheduled to run ChkDsk on the next reboot".
Again it had not been scheduled.

Then I did schedule both F-drive and D-drive to run ChkDsk on the next boot.
When rebooted, both the drives ran a complete ChkDsk. I then defragged
F-drive which defragged normally. When D-drive was selected to defrag, the
same message was received. Each boot, D-drive still runs the first 3 parts
of ChkDsk.

I ran a restore to 4 days previous to the problem starting, but the problem
still persists. Running ChkDsk only seems to be on D-drive as all others
are performing normally. BTW I do not have the HP scanner referred to in
Windows Knowledge base.

Does anyone have a clue why this is happening and how to fix the problem?
