Checking the hard drive for errors
The Error-checking program in Windows XP and Windows 2000 or ScanDisk
program in Windows 98 examines the hard drive for physical flaws and file
and folder problems. These programs correct file and folder problems and
mark flawed areas on the hard drive so that Windows does not use them.

If you use your computer several hours every day, you probably want to run
Error-checking or ScanDisk once a week. If you use your computer less
frequently, once a month may be adequate. Also use Error-checking or
ScanDisk if you encounter hard drive problems.
