Warning, Chkdsk errors are occuring high chances are because you are running Chkdsk
with open files. The accurate reporting can only be done when running Chkdsk during
bootup mode (when not using Windows and Chkdsk runs *before* the Windows desktop
loads). Chkdsk often *will* report an error if the
hard disk drive has open files.
