chkdsk won't complete

When I try to run chkdsk, it completes the first two
parts, then fails to complete "part 3 of 3". I left the
computer running for over 36 hours, and it still will not
complete. It just says something like "recovering lost
files", but nothing below that. Is there a way to fool
the computer into believing that chkdsk no longer needs
to run? Better yet, is there a way to fix this snafu?
Thanks so much!

Your hard drive is probably failing - back up your data and replace the
drive asap.
