i am not sure why, obviously, but when i run the maintenance wizard and the defrag and scandisk apps individually they won't work. the scandisk app will start checking allocation tables (or whatever) and then check folders but it doesn't get past one block on the percentage bar, then it repeats to allocation files. Defrag won't get past 0%.... i hear the hard drive working but nothing is happening. i went to dos to run scandisk and it says that i need to REM devices inorder to scan the disk surface and then it quits. what the hell? also...how can i view the .chk files that scandisk creates with the lost file fragments? thank you in advance for any help you can offer. dave nindoty@hotmail.com
