If u can get into windows... go to my computer and right click the drive and go to properties, then tools, then error checking. if u can i would say u defitnantly need a new drive. try to find a drive w/ windows and make that drive a partition and do what i just said.

Yes i did what it said by restarting my pc and it brings up the same disk check error and i wanted to see if it had fixed it did a restart again and the same message comes up. I have also noticed i cant defragment the drive as well :@ plus i dont have enough money to buy a new hard drive. At the moment looks like im gonna have to put up with it if no one can help me out on this.
Has this helped any of you to knowing what i need to do or is it just a new hard drive im looking at???

Windows has marked the drive "dirty".    Chances are you harddrive has failed.

Go into  Event Viewer and check for Disk and NTFS errors in the system log, good chance youll have em.

Ok... no more stupid advice guys.

gazzie,
What OS are you running?  This is your E: drive, so with XP there should (by default) be no sharing on the drive, hence no reason windows check disk (or scan disk) should not run.  If you're using ME or win 2k there's a defult hidden share for each drive (or partition).  You can disable this easily by right clicking the drive letter and going to properties.
If you still can not check the drive I recommend you download a good free disk scanner.  It's been a few years since I've needed to use anything besides the built in microshaft scanner they stole from norton, but I'd start on download.com and look for a free aftermarket scan disk type program.  You might also want to download and run ad-aware and spybot to be extra sure you're not infected with spyware.

slo5oh I'm running on windows xp. I wanted to format my drive but I'm getting a message saying that a utility is scheduled to run i know exactly what it means the disk check. I have a bad file on my computer somewhere and i would like to format E drive but it wont let me how can i get around this?

And blade i cant make that screen any bigger since i got it off my mobile. All i can say is if you have ever run a disk check then the screen is basically a bit like that.

Anymore help on this please i want to format my E drive but it wont let me anyone be able to help me on this?
