Help!

I am having a FAT problem on my 40 meg hard drive. One of the FAT's has
gotten corrupted, and I dont know what software to use to fix it! The 
copy of the FAT is ok (that's what chkdsk says). So I am still running
but I want to fix the problem before it gets too bad to fix. I have already
backed up the drive... just reformatting it does not fix it (low or high) 
I must have gotten a new bad spot on the disk? Chkdsk /F does not fix it?
why? 

Advice needed quickly!
Thanx
Mitch Wood
