Errors found. CHKDSK cannot continue in read-only mode.

My reason for running chkdsk was because:
My pc (hard drive to be specific) had no activity during gaming (my whole pc freezes at this point). I have a small led light that blinks or dims to show HDD activity, and when my game freezes(whole pc doesnt not respond) the light turns off, I figured that there would be something wrong with the HDD.

*I've ran a CHKDSK (the one that runs when you boot up the pc and not while you are logged in)
BUT, I did not know the results of it. It ran, but obviously I don't have the time to wait hours for it to finish. Once I came back to check on my pc, it was at the Windows Login screen.

If you don't have the patience to let it complete we cannot help you here...
You should run chkdsk /r from the command prompt with as many running background apps shut down as possible.

Boot to the recovery console and run chkdsk /r - and leave it alone until it finishes.

Patio is right here.   ;D   I have just had to replace a hard drive! CHKDSK was telling me, in effect, that the drive was done in.    I ran CHKDSK with the '/F' peramiter and it automatically repares as it goes. (or /r as patio recomends).   If after doing this, errors still occure, you are needing a new HD.  >:(  :o  ::)

I state here, that there is nothing like running a HD testing 'gizmo', if you can find a good one.  There are plenty about.  Whatch out for 'HD Sentinel' though as it did not report my knackered drive to me, it kept telling me that it was OK!  >:(
