Restoring XP system files? [RESOLVED]

I remember in Windows 98 i could check for missing/corrupt system files of the sort, i think i typed Start > Run > "SFC".

How can i do this on XP, when i type Start > Run > "CHKDSK"

It always shows a message saying that the scan will be permormed next time i start the PC, but nothing ever happens :confused:

Try this...
I'm not sure if this is what you mean but it might be...

Click My Computer, Right Click your systems main drive (usually C) then click properties.
This will show up...

Then Click the Tools tab, and select Check Now... Under the Error-Checking Heading.

Oh, and for Checkdisk, if you have Zonealarm 5 installed remove it, it messes with the Chkdsk command...
Go back to 4.5 if you can :thumb:

Try running Chkdsk with the /f parameter.

Code:

CHKDSK C: /f
