Hello,

Again format all partitions and made all partitions again through Dos or Cd. But it will be more good to make again with Dos. You will not get this message again.

Hi this is simple. You don’t need to format your partition. Just follow the steps:

 

1. Click your my computer icon and open it.

2. Select the partition which asks you to check on windows start up.

3. Right click on the partition select properties.

4. Properties interface will appear in screen. In this you have to select tools options.

5. You can see the option call error-checking.

6. You have to click on check now option.

7. once you clicked on check now option you will get check disk options, in this you have to select both options ”Automatically fix file system error” and “scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors”.

8. Finally click start.

 

That’s all. Thank you.
