    Normally once checkdisk runs through it resets the 'dirty bit' on the drive concerned so that it is not called again.

    Have you let it run through when booting? I know this takes time - have a bottle of wine meanwhile.

    yes i have yesterday it found and cleaned some dirty bits but today it found nothing
    i let anything that springs up do it job as i dont understand much about computers and its better to be safe than sorry
