Windows 2000 boot problem

[Guest CCOX]

I get a stop error message when I start the laptop. How do I get rid of this

screen and run CHKDSK/F as instructed?

Here are a few options:

- Try starting the laptop in Safe Mode.

- Start it with a Bart PE boot CD.

- Remove the disk, then install it in an external USB case and run chkdsk on

some other PC.

 

In all cases you must make sure that your important files (including your

EMail files) are backed up to a different medium BEFORE attempting any

repairs.
