Thanks in advance.

Is there a freeware dos utility that will do a scandisk. I am having
trouble with Microsoft's scandisk.

Again thanks,

Dave H.

Which OS? Have you tried running ScanDisk in 'safe' mode?

The hard drive in question will not boot into safe mode, thus a reinstall.
I can not install without going thru scandisk.

Thank you,

When in DOS, type: scandisk

You don't need any "special" third party programs.

I can not run "scandisk" in dos. It stalls. I am looking for a
replacement.

Thanks anyway,

cd \win98
setup /IS /IQ

will skip the scandisk and go straight to install if any good for you?
