    It's about the same, but fixes errors and is a deep test.

    I did disconnect my ext.HD prior to the test.

    Do you know the HDD manufacturer? Also, the CHKDSK might find a fixable error.

    Apart from it being a Dell I don't know who's LS?

    but I shall have a go with the CHKDSK as I have nothing to loose now.

    Just backing up my files...again, once that is done I shall report back.

    Also, ask dell for a new HD if it is under warranty, as they tend to just send you a new one without asking for the old one back. If that is so, you can have two drives if CHKDSK finds fixables.

    They are going to collect the pc LS, they did ask if I would like the HD sent but there are two in the pc as I understand, would it have been the C drive as the problem lies with the OS?
    I might still be able to change the request and it makes more sense as i do not have to lose the old HD and its files.

    If it's causing problems with the operating system, then yes, it should be the C drive :)
