Chkdsk Issue/questions
So I'm trying to run CHKDSK to fix some issues with my harddrive, but I'm not sure whether its working or not.
I didn't use the command-line method, but rather set it up through the gui.
I restarted, and a message came up that said something like "checking C:\ press any button to abort testing" and then a counter went down to 1 and stopped.
After this, the message stayed on the screen for 10-15 minutes, before the monitor shut off.
That is all that has happened. No other activity can be descried.
Is checkdisk running? Should I just wait it out, or should I try and run it elsewise?
Keep in mind that I'm not a techie, and don't plan on being one, so I don't really know what I'm doing.
Thanks
