I have read several threads about this problem (described in more detail
below) which I found by searching, but I have not found any conclusion in any
of them as to whether (a) this a bug of some sort, possibly SP2-related,
which inaccurately reports errors, and, if so, what to do about it, or (b)
there really is some real error which chkdsk is finding but not fixing, in
which case, what to do about that.
The problem is this:
When I run chkdsk it says that it corrected the volume bitmap. It says it
found problems with the file system and that I should run chkdsk /f. I do
that. But then when I run chkdsk again, I get the same message. I have run
chkdsk and chkdsk /f both from the gui and from the command prompt -- same
result.
What is the current thinking on this issue?
