Upon starting Gateway laptop, Scandisk now comes on automatically and tries to run. The problem is that it will never finish and gives me the error ".....has restarted 10 times...."
Now, I would like to defrag this computer, but in order to do that I must run scandisk first. It will not do that from Windows or Windows Safe Mode. It will run and finish Scandisk from DOS, but the defrag will not recognize it.
So basically what I want to accomplish is two things...1)stop the scandisk app from running at every startup (I assume it will go away once it completes successfully) and ...2)Be able to run Defrag (but to do that, Scandisk must run and finish
)
