Can someone help me please.

I have had problems with corrupt files and have been trying to rectify the
problem... without any success.

I have been trying to defrag but each time I try I get a message informing
me that chkdsk is scheduled to run on the volume but this nevers appears to
happen. Also each time I go to try and look at chkdsk/f. it just flicks upon
the screen for less than a second. It is probably me doing something stupid
but it is driving me to drink.

I would appreciate any polite suggestions please. Thank you

If the command chkdsk /f /r (find bad sectors, recover information from
bad sectors and fix errors on the disk) is run, on the next reboot the
check disk is scheduled, however you may want to cancel this check
disk. To do this perform the following:

Run the Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe). You must use Regedt32 and not
Regedit.exe
Goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager
Change the BootExecute value from:
autocheck autochk * /r\DosDevice\<drive letter>:
To:
autocheck autochk


Hope this helps
