hi

Trying to help another person out.

They wrote down and gave me this

Suggestions?

Dirty is flag ( or bit ) that the volume has inconsistent data on it. The
usual step to resolve it is to run the command Chkdsk C: /R from a
Command Prompt window. The system will respond that the check
can only be done at boot Enter Y to queue up the Chkdsk.

Click Start, Run ( Type ) Cmd [Enter]

Chkdsk C: / R [Enter]
