A hard drive crash detection tool used in fixing errors

Hi,

Click the Start button, then click Computer. Right click on the drive you want to check, and then click Properties. Click the Tools tab, under Error-checking, click Check Now. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, provide the password or provide confirmation. To automatically fix errors related to files and folders detected by the verification process, select the check box Automatically fix file system errors. If you do not enable this option, the process of verifying the disk set only report problems without correcting them. To perform a complete check of the disk, select the check box Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors. This research analyzes and corrects errors on the physical hard drive, which can take some time. Search for both file system errors and physical errors, select the checkboxes Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors and click Start.

Depending on the size of your hard disk, this may take several minutes.
