Continuous chkdsk errors ?

monographix · 19 Sep 2011

i am getting lately often chkdsk launching on boot and also when i use it to check the situation on the reported partitions (at least two physical drives so far) it reports errors almost on every run even if sometimes they are like 10 minutes after the previous "scan and fix errors" ....

Surface / sectors tests and WD diagnostics tool scan (all drives are WD) are coming up clean ....

What's the deal here? Doesn't look like the drives need to be replaced right? one especially is like two weeks old. In that case, (no eminent hardware failure, but something about the file system?) is there some way to fix this ?

1. are you overclocking?
2. which drives are showing errors?

Post a snip of disk management display using this procedure:
HOW TO POST A SNAPSHOT OF DISK MANAGEMENT DISPLAY
Run disk management:
WIN | type DISKMGMT.MSC | ENTER
WIN is the key with the wavy flag.

Maximize the output of Disk Management:
ALT-Spacebar key combo (this pops up a menu) followed by X key (selects Maximize) |
Drag the field separators (such as between Status and Capacity) to show entire field. This is very important, otherwise, needed info is not visible.

Make a snapshot:
WIN | type SNIPPING | ENTER | New
Drag the cursor around the area you want to snip.
File | Save as | select save location and name | Save

Post the snapshot:
