you can install Norton Utilitys/ Systemworks (any ver over 2002... 2003 only I guess ;-p) and replace Scandisk with Disk Doctor... probly won't do anything :P but it's faster and more thourough. you may wanna delete scandisk.exe from your windows dir.... but that may just funk up things... :twisted:
btw you know you don't have to fdisk every time you reformat (unless you wanna re-manage your partitions) just format than install.

and lastly, make sure you don't have a problem while you are shutting down. windows will automatically run scandisk if the computer fails to shutdown properly. makesure you aren't using a "shutdown" shortcut such as a macro or program because it may be them.

if that doesn't work, run a full system scandisk. most likely the scandisk itself will find a problem and you can then fix the problem.
did all that and i cant run a full system scan becouse it says scan disk must run even after i run it.
(unless you wanna re-manage your partitions)
yea i know but im pretty sure that this is a problem with my harddrive becouse im runing out of opitons
