CHKDSK runs 5 steps for the system, 3 for the non-system partition partition

Would be - to schedule chkdsk for the partition system using GUI by selecting two options available here
It executes all 5 steps of verification of system files and disk.
Would be - to plan an analysis of the non-system partition disk by setting the dirty bit (fsutil dirty) put...
It runs only 3 floors of disk scan.

Whence this difference?

Fsutil allows you to set the 'dirty' bit for a NTFS disk, autochk performs an immediate chkdsk /f on that volume.  When the F switch is set, the activity of chkdsk is divided into three major passes: checking files, checking the index and security descriptors.

If you use the R (chkdsk/r) switch, chkdsk performs twice more to look for bad sectors. During step 4, chkdsk checks all clusters in use; during step 5, chkdsk checks the unused beams.

Given that you used the GUI instead of enter the chkdsk command in a command prompt window or in the run box, you must have checked the two boxes that appear under "to check disk options'-' automatically fix file system errors" and "will search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.»

Most of the time, one is not using the R switch or check the box to recover data from bad sectors because it can take a lot of time and (b) "recovered data" are usually not easily usable.

  • Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption. STOP: 0x0000007B__Blue screen

    I have a Vista 64 bit OS.  I tried to do a system restore to the last checkpoint to interrupt a Service Pack.  Restore failed (don't remember exact error), now when I try to boot Vista, I get a message saying to run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption.  STOP: 0X0000007B
    My questions are:
    (1) do I need Vista recovery CD in order to enter the menu advanced at this stage startup options?
    (2) if I decide to upgrade to Windows 7 now, made the stop: 0x0000007B have a problem with that?  or could I fall in Windows 7?
    Vista 64 gave me many problems and I think its time to make him... Thanks in advance... Mark

    Hi Markgod5,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

    It seems that the hard drive is damaged if we get this error message to running chkdsk.

    You can start the computer in safe mode with command prompt and see if you can start.  Then run the chkdsk command.

    To do this follow these steps:

    (a) restart your computer if it is running.

    (b) press F8 after your computer powers initially on.

    (c) once you see the menu Advanced Boot Options, you can stop tapping.

    (d) use the up/down arrow keys to select Safe mode with command prompt.

    (e) in the command prompt window, type the following command and press enter Chkdsk /R and Chkdsk /F

    Using recovery DVDs, you cannot switch mode winRE (Windows Recovery Environment) to run chkdsk. You need DVD full version (Win 7/Vista) or Vista repair disk.

    You probably won't be able to install win 7 because the problem is with the hard drive and chkdsk should be run for the error.

    Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.

    Hello

    You did changes to the computer before this problem?

    Step 1: Check if the problem persists in the clean boot state.

    From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

    Reference:
    How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    1. click on start and then click Run.
    2. type msconfig and click OK.

    The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

    3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.
    4. When prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

    Step 2: Also, look for error messages in the event viewer. If you find error messages after return the exact error message so that we can help you better.

  • Error: "cannot open Volume for Direct access" is displayed when Chkdsk runs at startup

    Original title: Edit/Fix key in my registry

    CHKDSK keeps trying to run during startup, but "cannot open volume...". "If I can solve this problem, I want to put it in the manual, not automatic.      My registry key: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\rchelp is missing.   Can I remedy this by creating a text file with an REG extension and if so, where can I find the exact measurements to do?  It is the DOS Cmd or in Notepad?

    Hi BarneyBear,

    1 did you allow that chkdsk runs successfully at the start of the system?

    Editing registry is not necessary here. We recommend you to check if the disk check is scheduled.

    This problem can be solved by installing the latest service pack Windows XP.

  • The computer says to run chkdsk b/c the program files are corrupted. When I run chkdsk/r, it indicates that the NTFS is locked and I have to restart to run chkdsk. When I reboot, the chkdsk never runs.

    Original title: Program Files gone?

    Recently, I started my computer and noticed that a bunch of files are corrupt, and left most of my shortcuts.  I went into Program Files and discovered the entire file completely empty.  The computer says to run chkdsk b/c the program files are corrupted.  When I run chkdsk/r, it indicates that the NTFS is locked and I have to restart to run chkdsk.  When I reboot, the chkdsk never runs.

    My wife has all of its graduates work on the computer, I backed up since then, but I try to avoid doing a restore of the entire system.  Can you help me?

    I am running Microsoft XP.

    Sorry to hear that you are having problems with your XP system.  For XP support please visit the link below
    http://www.Microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx?DG=Microsoft.public.WindowsXP.General

    Also, try to start the computer in Mode safe.
    When the computer is switched on 1, start pressing F8 until you get a menu of Windows startup, choose Safe Mode.

    Sounds like something important happened (corruption).  If you have important data there (for example, your wives, diploma work), I would strongly suggest taking the computer to a qualified technician so that they can recover data out of there before the drive goes down or the o/s is too damaged.

    Good luck

  • Running two engines step by step at the same time of a port

    Hello

    I have to run two motors at the same time - was used to move a linear ball screw and the other to get a grip. I do voltage and test on small twist wires, but the tension and torsion must be made at the same time. I must also build capacity for each engine to take several steps, IE. have an engine steps number at speed x and then move x number of speed z steps. The two engines must be able to do. However, I have problems to make the engines to run at the same time and to take all measures. The engines are connected to two RMS Technologies R356 controllers. The two controllers are then connected to a RS485 to USB converter card and this card is connected to one of the USB ports on the computer. Currently, I spend an array of orders to two loops each VISA containing read and written. I have attached the vi to watch. All the stuff in the code synchronization is because a new order cannot be sent to the controller until the engine is running the previous command. If orders are sent right after the other, the controller will not execute the first command and then return with an error.

    Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • CHKDSK runs automatically at startup to the top

    XP Pro SP3

    My computer has been running chkdsk automatically at startup for about two weeks. Not always, but often. Generally, it detects and corrects a problem in Phase 1 and nothing in the Phases 2 or 3. -What this means and what I can do about it?

    No, it's not a reason not to use a floppy drive if you have a floppy drive in your computer. The fact that the computer (or hard drive) is only 2 years old is irrelevant; equipment can fail at any time. And Yes, back up your data first. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
