How do I run check-disk in Vista? No "RUN" command please as that doesn't
work anymore. Where is it located so I can run it?

Just to add to the good advice you already got from Rick and TaurArian, I
think part of your confusion is that the Run shortcut is no longer in the
Start Menu by default. You can add it by right-clicking on the Start Orb
and then on the Start Menu tab. Choose "Customize" for lots of options.

However, it really isn't necessary to have the Run shortcut there because
you can run everything from the Search box (see Rick's answer). I think
perhaps you just didn't realize that.

news:es0TveoiJHA.2384@xxxxxxI'll try doing it from within Vista again. The last time it only ran about 5
minutes which doesn't seem like time enough to do my HD. Can it do a large
HD that fast? Also.. where in Vista do I find the exact size of my HD? The
lousy grandkids lost the paper all the info was written on.

news:eU8YleriJHA.4200@xxxxxxI have Vista Home Premium. I don't have a "customize" on the Start Menu tab.
How can it get that choice on the tab? I also miss "Favorites" on the start
tab. How do I get them there?

start menu, click customize.

Click Start go to Computer, left click, when window opens right click on C: drive, go to properties, and tools (top) click schedule "check" for errors and reboot, when computer boots check disk will run.
