If you are using Windows XP operating system and your machine shuts down too often, then you can solve the issue by starting your system from the Windows XP CD-ROM. You have to load the Microsoft Recovery Console and use CHKDSK command line utility. It is important to note that for using the Recovery Console, you have to know the administrator’s password; else, you can seek the services of an online technical support provider.
• Step 1: Click on the start menu and then click on Run. Now you will get an open text box, where you have to type “cmd”. Then press the Enter key.
• Step 2: You will get a command prompt screen. In case you want CHKDSK to run in the read-only mode, you have to type CHKDSK c. If you want CHKDSK not to check the bad sectors, but to fix the errors, type CHKDSK c:/f
• Step 3: Type CHKDSK c:/r or CHKDSK c:/p and then press Enter, if you want the CHKDSK command to locate the bad sectors in your hard drive and recover still readable data.
• Step 4: If the CHKDSK command says that your hard disk cannot be accessed, there may be a hardware failure. In this case, check all jumper settings in your drive and cable connections.
• Step 5: If the command says that it was unable to fix the hard drive problems, the Master Boot Record or file system may be damaged.
If you are not able to locate problems or solve it, you can contact the computer repair Atlanta service for help.
