Basic error checking

1. Double left click on the My Computer icon
2. Right click on the “C:” drive
3. Left click on Properties
4. Left click on the Tools tab
5. Left click on Check Now … under Error-checking
6. Left click Start

If you want to do a more in-depth error checking there are 2 other options available:

First option is to Automatically fix file system errors (choosing this option will require a restart of the computer to run).  When choosing this option you will see a box pop up that says, "The check disk could not be preformed because exclusive access to the drive could not be obtained.  Do you want to schedule this disk check to occur next time you restart the computer?"

When prompted for this you would choose Yes if you want it to run on the next reboot of the system.

The second option for error checking is Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors (this will not require a restart of the system)
