Hi,
I ran Norton Disk Doctor on my hard drive, and it found a problem with
my "security descriptors:"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Norton Disk Doctor found problems with the file system.
Run Norton Disk Doctor and check the Fix Errors option.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Disk Doctor tells me that "The 'Fix errors' checkbox was not checked."
I don't see a check box anywhere to check for fixing errors.
I suspect it doesn't exist for the Win 2k version.
Chkdsk doesn't fix the problem either.
Any ideas as to what I should do next?
This is the entire report, as it was generated by Disk Doctor:
