Windows 7 Impossible to run chkdsk

[Lebioley]

Hi,
Since a few days, when I try to run chkdsk at the restart appears "impossible to open the volume in direct acces"
Thanks if some one have the solution.

If you are using zone alarm, uninstall it.

Unfortunately, I do not use zone alarm.
Thanks

Hi,
why did you want to run chk disk in the first place? Did something happen or was it a maintenance run?
Try running the system file checker. Rightclick on cmd prompt and run as admin then type:

sfc /scannow

Then hit enter. The scanner will run through and hopefully fix any errors found.

Thanks, it was only a maintenance run

I jumped in with zone alam, which seems to have problems such as this with windows 7. But, what other spyware do you have?
Spyware doctor is another which can cause this problem

Ok thanks for the reply Lebioley.. Now my next question is 'how old is the drive in question'?

As RAK suggests you could try un-installing the security app.. Did you try the system scan?

It was outpost secutity suite

Hello,
Thanks for your help. It was outpost secutity suite, when I stop it chkdsk works well.
Best regards.

....

Suggestion to run chkdsk as administrator privileges. The volume may exist some errors.
