HELP!! I need a bootable floppy disk that can scan NTFS for errors

[kenny]

I need a bootable floppy disk that can scan NTFS for errors
This is a laptop.
1) I need this because I cannot use the CD because its broken
2) the XP boot disks (6 disk set) create the same ntfs.sys error (blue
screen 0x0000024 stop error) when I try to start the recovery console
pressing R
3) The blue screen tells me to use chkdsk /f to check the disk, but I cannot
get into the recovery console in order to do the chkdsk! thats why I need
another disk that can check the hard disk for errors!



thanks

Do you have acces to any WIN XP CD with your version ie Home or PRO?
You can use the CD to boot to Recovery Console. Use your password and
Product Key if needed. If you boot from CD, you should be able to get to
Recovery Console or Windows Setup and do Repair or Clean Install.

its not the cd disk that is broken, but the CD DRIVE! lol

I have to get it replaced, but I want to backup my data first!

Did you make a bootdisk as directed?
I'm not familiar with Setup diskette process. Insert disk 1 and boot from
it. Once Setup starts exit. Then try to run chkdsk from floppy. I don't know
which disk it will be on. OR
if you can get to a Command Prompt. Go to c:\windows\system32 and copy
chkdsk to floppy. then run from floppy

What wed address for downloading setup floppies.

So your computer is fixed?
What did you actually have to do to fix it?

If someone knows what he is doing, you don't have to perform any backups
just to replace a CD drive.

with that program I did a chkdsk on NTFS and it fixed the error on the
NTFS.SYS file that was corrupt. After a restart the computer booted up
normally.
This is not my computer. I always have all my data backed up.

I also saw this same post in alt.xp.sex.perverts and People magazine.
CNN ran a story today on Kenny's problems--it seems he ran out
of newsgroups to post to. President Bush returned early from
Camp David to marshall US forces to solve Kenny's problem:
It seems Kenny has tied up the world's bandwith capacity with
his excessive cross-posting.

Just ran that "little free program". He managed to do chkdsk with it
because he didn't know that XP could have done this for him had he asked
us!!!
