  Hi Augie,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  1. you run defrag disk for the first time?

  Disk Defragmenter is a tool that rearranges the data on your hard drive and brings together fragmented files so that your computer can run more efficiently. We must keep in mind that the Disk Defragmenter uses disk access low priority and processor so that it is not influence your current running programs. This automatically translates a slower process. Disk defragmentation can take a long time if you run it for the first time and also depend on the space of hard disk and available data. If may take up to 15-16 hours, depending on the data and the bad clusters on the hard drive.

  Try the suggested methods.

  Method 1

  If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, use disk cleanup. It removes temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/delete-files-using-disk-cleanup

  Method 2

  You can run a disk scan command to remove bad sectors on the hard drive, then run Disk Defragmenter.

  1. open the computer by clicking the Start button, click computer.

  2. right click on the hard drive you want to check, and then click Properties.

  3. click on the sur l' onglet tab Tools and then, under error-checking, click check now.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  To automatically repair problems with files and folders that detects the scanning, select automatically fix file system errors. Otherwise, the disk check will simply report a problem, but not to fix them.

  To perform a full disk check, select search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors. This scan is trying to find and repair physical errors on the hard drive itself, and it may take much longer to complete.

  To check for errors file and the physical errors, select automatically fix file system errors and search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

  4. click on Start.

  Depending on the size of your hard disk, this may take several minutes. For best results, do not use your computer for any other tasks while it checks errors.

• Disk Defragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled to run on the Volume: C:. Please run Chkdsk /f.

  I know this question has been asked several times, but I did these steps and still not get Defragmenter to work.  My Disk Doctor said I don't have problems with my Defragler work program - but I don't have a C: drive not 'dirty '.  I have Windows XP Home Edition and do not know how to run an XP Recovery Console.  Y at - it an easy way just to get the Defragmenter to work?... when I run Chkdsk... It goes through stages and then closes and the problem is still there.  Defragmenter just stopped working, my computer everything works fine.  Help, please.

  Hmmm...  It should only take a few minutes for ImgBurn to create the bootable XP Recovery Console CD, then maybe one of the songs that you have downloaded (xp_rec_con.iso or install IgmBurn) won't quite right.

  You want ImgBurn to play a happy tune when it is successful and a "Oh no!" message when it fails, but it shouldn't take hours to burn this ISO file bit.  You can try another system.  You can always uninstall ImgBurn when finished.

  I say 'be patient' when you run the chkdsk /r command because sometimes it seems to be stuck (or even go back), but it should end later.  Depending on the volume size, the amount of data on the volume, the speed of your system and what the chkdsk finds to do, you can watch several hours.

  Look at these words from the mouth of Microsoft:

  If you use chkdsk /f on a drive or drives for very large (for example, 70 gigabytes) with a very large number of files (for example, millions of files), chkdsk may take a long time (for example, over several days) to complete. The computer is not available during this time because chkdsk does not relinquish control until it is completed.

  At the time of this writing, I'm guessing a disc 70 GB was "very large" but it is quite modest by today's standards.

  Now with today's technology, it is unlikely to take days, but it could still take some time!  If your HARD drive is afflicted with a problem material and dying, it can never finish or be unable to fix things.

  To start XP, it automatically checks each volume to see if it is dirty and will try to run chkdsk from the afflicted volumes.  Sometimes, it's good enough to clear the dirty bit, sometimes it isn't.  You will see a message at startup if the volume should be checked for consistency and XP will do the best.

  That's exactly what the message tells you:

  Disk Defragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled to run on the volume: (c :))

  You can query the dirty bit on a volume from the command prompt window.

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open the command prompt window.

  To query the bit of impurity on drive C, type:

  fsutil dirty query C:

  The sample output:
  Volume c is dirty
  Volume C: is dirty

  Type "exit" to close the command prompt window.

  If you are suspicious of your HARD drive and think it might be failing, now would be a good time to backup your personal data (documents, pictures, music, etc.) to an external location - a separate attached USB drive or a few clouds on the Internet.

• What is this average, Disk Defragmenter has detected that chkdsk command is schduled to run on the volume: (C). Please run chkdsk /f.

  Been trying to run the defrag on my C drive and this message keeps coming up.

  When you try to defragment a volume of that Disk Defragmenter reports:

  Disk Defragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled to run on the volume: (c :))
   
  Please run Chkdsk /f.

  This means that the volume that you want to defragment was marked 'dirty' XP.  This is not necessarily all of the data has been lost on the volume, it simply means that XP thinks that the volume should be checked to find errors because of something that happened before.

  You won't be able to defragment the volume until the dirty bit has been removed.

  A volume can be marked as dirty, if the system underwent a power interruption (power failure, pulling plug, removing the battery, button / stop), abandoned restart or an abnormal termination.  One of these events?

  When XP starts, it automatically checks the bit of impurity on each volume.  You can also tell XP to ignore the bit of impurity on any volume, but this probably isn't a good idea in case there is a real problem that needs to be fixed.  If you have a hard drive where the dirty bit will not disappear, you can tell XP not to check.

  If the starting XP detects that the volume is dirty, it will be automatically run the check disk with error correction (chkdsk/r) and try to fix the problems detected.

  If the chkdsk command succeeds, it clears the dirty bit, and then you can defragment the volume.

  You can check the status of your bit of impurity from a command prompt window.

  To do this, click Start, run and enter in the box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open a command prompt window.

  For example, to query the bit of impurity on drive C, type:

  fsutil dirty query C:

  The sample output:
  Volume c is dirty
  Volume C: is dirty

  Is the volume of your sale or it is not dirty?

  Since XP of course already thinking that the volume is dirty, XP will automatically run chkdsk when it restarts to try to clear the dirty bit, in order to plan another running chkdsk can not help you much.  Sometimes the auto chkdsk on a reboot will be not only clear things to the top, but you can try it.

  I would like to start in the XP Recovery Console and run chkdsk /r from there you can actually watch and see what happens and decide what to do about this.  When own running chkdsk/r, it clears the dirty bit unless your HARD drive is somewhat distressed.

  It's a shame that we don't know anything about your system, or you would be probably done now (it's not your fault), so the first response to a new problem is a bunch of questions.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  What usually ends up happening, is that you will need run your chkdsk/r from the XP Recovery Console.  That's the short answer.

  If you do not have a bootable XP installation CD authentic where you can boot into the Recovery Console, you can create a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console and run chkdsk /r from there (no media XP required).

  On your question (simple copy/paste for me and a lot to read, but you will understand things when you're done and prevents you from losing time trying ideas that will not work):

  When you try to defragment a volume of that Disk Defragmenter reports:

  Disk Defragmenter has detected that Chkdsk is scheduled to run on the volume: (c :))
   
  Please run Chkdsk /f.

  This means that the volume that you want to defragment was marked 'dirty' XP.  This is not necessarily all of the data has been lost on the volume, it simply means that XP thinks that the volume should be checked to find errors because of something that happened before.

  You won't be able to defragment the volume until the dirty bit has been removed.

  This does not mean that a disk check is scheduled to run, and you can't cancel what needs to happen in this case because this isn't the problem.

  Also the dirty bit is not set on a volume, you can still run a disk defrag with a record of date of arrival in the meantime (try).

  Entry of commands to reset or erase a disc awaiting review is therefore a waste of time - that is not the problem.

  A volume can be marked as dirty, if the system underwent a power interruption (power failure, pulling plug, removing the battery, button / stop), abandoned restart or an abnormal termination.  One of these events?

  When XP starts, it automatically checks the bit of impurity on each volume.  You can also tell XP to ignore the bit of impurity on any volume, but this probably isn't a good idea in case there is a real problem that needs to be fixed.  If you have a hard drive where the dirty bit will not disappear, you can tell XP not to check.

  You can check the status of your bit of impurity from a command prompt window.

  To do this, click Start, run and enter in the box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open a command prompt window.

  For example, to query the bit of impurity on drive C, type:

  fsutil dirty query C:

  The sample output:
  Volume c is dirty
  Volume C: is dirty

  You cannot use fsutil or chkntfs from a command prompt to delete the bit of impurity on a volume.

  The only thing that can clear the bit of impurity on a volume is chkdsk /r (or chkdsk/p).  You could tell XP not to check the bit of impurity on a volume where the dirty bit does not erase, but this probably isn't a good idea since there is some sort of problem on the volume.

  You also won't solve this problem by editing your registry database - not where is the problem.

  Once a volume is marked as dirty, the only way to clear the dirty bit is to run "chkdsk/r" or "chkdsk/p" when the volume is not in use.  The only way a volume can not be used while XP is just starting to load or from the XP Recovery Console.

  If XP will not run chkdsk correctly when your system restarts or the dirty bit will not erase as it should, you need to look in the Event Viewer log chkdsk and see what is happening and fix it.

  If XP will not always clear the dirty bit, you need to run chkdsk/r of the XP Recovery Console so you can look and see what works and run it again until it works.  If your hard drive fails, you may never be able to clear the dirty bit, in this case, you can also say XP never check the afflicted volume dirty bit.

  Saying XP not to check the bit of impurity on a volume would be risky behavior because there would always be some kind of problem with your hard drive.

  You can manually program the disk with error correction check to run at the next reboot of the system, but if the dirty bit has been set, XP should run check disk automatically with error correction during the next reboot.

  This is usually the case that after a reboot, the problems will be resolved since XP will automatically run check disk on the Sales volumes when it restarts.  If you do not check that the chkdsk results of newspapers after his execution on a restart, you will never know what problems are corrected or remain.

  When you choose to run the check disk with error correction in the Tools menu of disk properties, you will be prompted with a message similar to the following:

  The disk check cannot be performed because the disk check utility needs exclusive access to some Windows files on the disk
  .
  These files can be access only by restarting Windows.  You want to schedule the disk check to occur the next time that you restart Windows?

  Answer Yes, if you want to schedule the check disk on the next reboot of Windows.

  When you choose to run the check disk with error correction in the command prompt window, you will be prompted with a message similar to the following:

  The type of the file system is NTFS.
  Cannot lock the current drive.

  Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process.  You want to schedule this volume to be
  check the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

  Answer Yes, if you want to schedule the check disk on the next reboot of Windows.

  When XP restarts, let the disc over to check and correct the problems, he could find.  Do not interrupt the disk check.  It can take a long time (hours or days) to complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive light flashes, it's something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  Is there a problem with the chkdsk command that works on reboot and it doesn't really seem to do something (too fast) or not to clear the dirty bit (check the dirty bit), the command chkdsk which took to restart results in the Event Viewer Application log.  Look there to see what happened.

  When chkdsk runs automatically reboot, you may wonder where to find the results.  The results appear in the Event Viewer Application log.

  You will need to get there after the disk check performed and XP has finished loading for the results and all the problems.

  To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

  A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

  %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

  Click OK to launch the event viewer.

  Look in the Application log for a proposed Winlogon event, something like this successful race:

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Winlogon
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 1001
  Description:

  Checking file system on C:

  The type of the file system is NTFS.

  A disk check has been programmed.

  Windows will now check the disk.
  39070048 KB total disk space.
  25151976 KB in 78653 files.
  48256 KB in 10264 index.
  0 KB in bad sectors.
  237080 KB in use by the system.
  65536 KB occupied by the log file.
  13632736 KB available on disk.

  Windows has finished checking your disk.

  If you see errors - same errors that are corrected, you must run the disk checking with correction of error again (chkdsk/r) until you see no error.  You should have no errors.

  If you need help interpreting your event, post it here for analysis.

  If you double-click on an event, it will open a window of properties with more information.  On the right are black up and down arrow keys to scroll through the open events. The third button that looks like two overlapping pages is used to copy the details of the event in your Windows Clipboard.

  When you find an interesting event that occurred at the time of your question, click on the third button at the top and arrows to copy the details and then you can paste the details (right click, paste or CTRL-V) the text in detail here for analysis.  Remove all personal information from your information after you paste If you are forced to do so.

  If the chkdsk command that runs on every reboot XP does not clear the dirty bit, you must run chkdsk/r from the XP Recovery Console and see if that will clear things upward.  It is a good idea because you can watch chkdsk as it works and see the results on your screen instead of looking in the event viewer connects or wondering what happened (she also just 'feels' better when we see that it works).

  If you have no authentic XP bootable installation CD to boot into the XP Recovery Console, you can create a CD bootable XP (no XP media required) Recovery Console, and then run chkdsk /r manually.

  Need instructions on how to create a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console to run chkdsk/r manually?

  In Windows Vista, there are a lot of improvements in the defrag engine and handling of fragmentation. By default, Windows Vista uses Task Scheduler to automatically keep the defragmented hard drive.
