crazy chkdsk process

#1 Post by emeraldgirl08 » Thu Jul 30, 2009 12:41 am

Why does "Delete Orphan Files" and then "Recover Orphan Files" scroll on-screen???

I just got home from work and my sisters computer is doing this.

I've had some problems figuring out boot settings so don't know if I messed something up.

Any suggestions on this?

The scan took two hours and the OS is working fine... for the moment.

Sure hope this doesn't happen again!

Thanks for the info ninja!
