    Sigh.

    Anybody know what to do if sfc / scannow freezes in the middle of running? Mine stalled at verification 87% complete... stuck for an hour now.

    Thanks!
    I had same problem an hour or so ago , Only thing i did was do a hard reboot ( then a quick remount of the ISO via my Vista partition.)

    Sorry for being no help.

    Those times sound right. So you didn't do a disk check at reboot?
    Yes, I did a disk check at reboot both yesterday and today. I had both of the boxes ticked both times, scheduled the disk check to run at start up, and then restarted my machine.

    The steps I took were identical both days... I cannot understand why the run times were so wildly divergent, but I am getting used to it.

    I've noticed that if you select to run Disk Check on a drive that Windows 7 is not installed on it runs faster depending on drive size of course. If you select the Windows 7 drive, then Disk Check will need to restart the computer to run the check at boot. This would take longer to run depending on drive size.
