I have a balloon that pops up telling me that C:\WINDOWS is corrupted or unreadable Run the chkdsk utility.

How do I do that?

What Windows version?
Post EXACT error.

[War Eagle]

Windows XP

I should tell you that I had a previous error where the registry was corrupted and the folks at Dell sent me a disc to reinstall windows XP.  After the reinstall I started getting these balloons.

The file or directory \WINDOWS is corrupt and unreadable.
Please run the Chkdsk utility.
