Difference between chkdsk /r started in Windows and Boot Up Repair

[Guest Angelo]

Hello All - is there a difference between starting chkdsk /r from a command

line in Windows and starting from the Repair option when booting with a

Windows Xp CD?

 

It appears there's no difference but just curious.

 

The cmd from Windows runs it the next time system is restarted.

 

Thanks in Advance,

There is no essential difference, other than the boot process

running on any partition, even the system partition.
