    Check of Win 7 partition with chkdsk from WinXP-BootCD possible?


    Assume I want to check the partition NTFS integrity of a Win 7 system from a BootCD with WinXP.

    Is this possible?

    Or is the WinXP chkdsk utility outdated and NOT usable for Win 7 NTFS systems?

    Use command prompt and type chkdsk as administrator. It's been around for a while. :)

    Ok, I know how to use chkdsk.

    The question is if WinXPs chkdsk is compatible with Win7 NTFS

    Ahh, it's the same thing if that's what you're asking.
