chkdsk

Thanks for the suggestion. Now I've discovered I can't get the computer to get into Safe Mode. I have followed all the directions from help.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

you hit f8 on startup and nothing happens?

Yes I hit f8 on startup, it just sat there, nothing happened. Maybe I didn't let it sit long enough - I am not known for my patience. Will try again.........

Try to keep tapping f8, it should do it,

[and when the computer first boots you should see a screen of your motherboard brand up] / ignore that if you dont understand

Help!!! Please.....this is one of the few items that wasn't taken during Hurricane Ivan and I have to admit I am somewhat emotionally attached to it. I am attached to everything I have that wasn't "ivanized

Imgine you are, good luck

About nows when I give up lmao

Well I had posted a last resort command for chkdsk but since you go it going it's redundant.
