Hi! Running Gateway 500 XL 30 Ghz Pentium, XP MCE 2004 , 512 Mb RAM, w/ 2
separate hard disks: 160 Gb Maxtor and a 100 Gb Maxtor. My primary drive,
C:\, is the 160 Gb. My secondary drive, D:\, is the 100 Gb.
I have a disk error on D: drive. I've attempted following the SOP for
repairing the disk using Check Disk via Control Panel/Windows. Upon restart,
when the system is performing Check Disk, it hangs on Stage 5 when it's
verifying the free space on the disk. I made sure that the disk remains
powered and have tried giving it as long as seemed necessary to finish, but
never does.
How do I repair the error on this disk? Why does Check Disk hang up when
it's trying to fix the disk? What to do?
Any help appreciated.
