| | Re: check disk utility errors Go to the Command Prompt and type "chkdsk /f" without the quotes and press ENTER. You will get a warning message, if the volume is locked. Type "Y" without the quotes and press ENTER. Reboot your computer. BTW, this is not a .NET related question and so should have been directed to its appropriate news group.
