Can't run Sfc /scannow
Strangest thing. On my windows 7 Pro (32-bit) desktop I am getting a c0000001 error at boot with no indication of which file is causing the problem. I boot to the OS disc and try to run Sfc /scannow and it tells me there is a repair pending. I looked in the winsxs folder but there isn't a pending.xml file. I go to run Sfc /scannow /offbootdir=d:\ /offwindir=d:\windows\ and it just gives me information about the Sfc program. You know, version number, sample commands, etc. But it didn't actually run.
Any idea how I can run sfc on this drive? I can put it in another machine that works but I don't know the syntax on how to run sfc on the borked drive.
