How about boot FreeDOS (F6, F1), then type "chkdsk" at the command prompt?

Hmm at least in the 1.0 release, the chkdsk of FreeDOS seems to be very unstable.
I'd advise to use dosfsck instead.

the dos thingie doesnt work..
i can boot into the normal dos on my com but im having difficulty with scandisk. it stops at 75% and says it has unrecoverable problems.
so im hoping there is a scandisk utility in the the UBCD.
thx

Do you have any OS installed on your hdd ?
If so, which one ?
Isn't there any scandisk program there which you could copy to a floppy ?
