CHKDSK Problem
I am getting the following result while running chkdsk c:
C:\Documents and Settings\thuotchkdsk c: The type of the file system is NTFS. WARNING! F parameter not specified. Running CHKDSK in read-only mode. CHKDSK is verifying files (stage 1 of 3)...

When I rerun it with the /F parameter, the computer restarts, runs chkdsk, and finds no errors. Do I have an error or not? I have been recently having problems running Drive Image 2002 which I never had before, so my guess is that it may be related. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Tom |
