Perhaps we were at cross purposes with what you reported as the reason you couldn't run a chkdsk /f

When you run chkdsk without any parameters, that is a read-only mode and can give the wrong info if something is being written to the HDD at the time.

A chkdsk in repair mode cannot run while the volume is in use - this is why you are prompted to enter y for it to run on the next start.

Do you want to give chkdsk /f another go ?

You can read its full report in Event Viewer (after it has read all of the data) by expanding Windows Logs - click on Application - Action/Find then type chkdsk or wininit into the Find box and press enter.

Cancel the Find box then read the report in the scrollable window and the main thing is still to look for any reported KBs in bad sectors.

Are you still getting the same empty Journal alert with HDSentinel ?

Volume always used by another processor. In HDSentinel-journal is empty,Alert is empty.Hitman`s experts have started working to eliminate error.

I wonder if it's the USN Journal that HDSentinel is referring to...

When you enter chkdsk /f in an elevated cmd prompt, do you get the same as mine - (this has been done on a Win 7 machine)

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

C:\Windows\system32>chkdsk /f
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.

Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process.  Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

This is normal and you need to type y and press enter for it to execute on the next restart.

Enter this cmd to close the cmd window and effect an immediate reboot where the chkdsk will execute after the countdown.

shutdown /r /t 00

The chkdsk will check the USN Journal and include its findings in its report.

Let's try it another way - I don't know why you are getting O/N instead of Y/N

You could see what happens when you enter o but go Start - click on the Settings cog - Update & Security - Recovery - under Advanced start-up click on Restart now - Troubleshoot - Advanced options - Command Prompt - click on the computer name

Enter your password if one used then click on Continue or if no password is used then just click on Continue

Enter bcdedit |find "osdevice" and using whichever partition letter, enter chkdsk x: /r where x is the partition letter.

For clarity, that is a Pipe symbol before find and is the upper case of \

The bcdedit cmd is necessary as it doesn't always see the volume as being in C

This method doesn't require a reboot to dismount the volume as you are working outside of Windows and you will see its full report on screen.

This will take some time but disregard the error 50 at the end because that relates to it not being able to create a Wininit file in Event Viewer as it would normally do when this is performed normally from within Windows.

Well there's something wrong if those previous cmds weren't recognized, unless you made any typos when you entered them and then there's the O/N you are getting when you try the chkdsk /f from within Windows.

I think I'd still be of a mind to perform a repair install because Windows own tools aren't working as they should.

A repair install doesn't affect your programs or personal stuff as it just repairs Windows.

If it's easier, when you are prompted to type O/N - enter n then right click in the cmd window - click on Select all and press enter.

You can then right click in the reply box and select Paste.

Can you explain what you don't understand ?

We need to see what you see.

Your command of English is excellent but I can use Google Translate to convert to your language if that is a problem.

When you get that message in the command window can you right click on an empty space in the command window - click on Select all and press enter.

Right click in the forum reply box and select Paste and then we'll be able to see what you are getting.

Are you typing it straight after you get the prompt to type O/N ?

Okay then.

Open a fresh Command Prompt (Admin) and enter chkdsk - go Start - type snipping then press enter when Snipping Tool comes up.

Click on New then position the mouse cursor at the top left of the cmd window - right click and drag the mouse across and down to encompass the relevant part of the cmd window then release the mouse button.

Click on File - Save As - give it a name - chkdsk will do then click on Save.

Click on File/Exit then enter exit in the cmd window to close it.

Place your cursor in the reply box, add some text and press enter to paragraph then scroll down below the reply box to Attach then click on Browse.

Click on your Pictures folder - then on the chkdsk pic and click on Open.

When you click on Post you will see your pic in the lower half of the reply box like mine -
