Most of the Hard drive errors are easily fixed with the help of a tool called Check Disk.
Check Disk (CHKDSK) is a built-in Windows utility that can
scan your hard drive for errors and bad sectors,
repair logical errors, prevent further deterioration by moving data to the healthier parts of the disk and make sure new data is not saved to the bad sectors.
This way Check Disk can improve the stability of your PC.
The Procedure to run CHKDSK
The larger your disk, the longer time taken by Check Disk will need to complete the scan.
That’s why it’s good to schedule Check Disk to run either at night or when you’re stay out of your pc.
For ,windows Xp/vista/Windows 7/8 ,,the procedure is same for all Operating System
1. Go to Start and open (My) Computer
2. Right-click on the drive you wish to check and go to Properties
3. Go to the Tools tab and click on the Check Now button
4. A pop-up window will appear and ask you whether you want to Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors
Make sure you check both checkboxes – otherwise Check Disk will only report errors without fixing them
5. Click Start to launch the tool.
When other Progrrames are running,it will offur you scheduled disk check and it is best option.
It’s also possible to run Check Disk (CHKDSK) from the command prompt.
