Error Checking

Frequently I run the "Error Checking" Untility on my hard drive. This used to be called Scandisk in the old days.

To run this I simply right click on my drive letter choose My Computer, choose Properties, and then check the Tools Tab. and finally click on the "Check Now" Button.

Now for some reason I can no longer get the "Check Now" button to launch the Utility. It simply "bounces" back and nothing will happen?

I tried closing down all programs running in Start Up and even tried to run the Utility with Safe Mode and still no luck.

I have also looked in the System 32 Folder for some sort of application that migh launch this utility but don't seem to find anything.

Any help sure would be appreciated.

 

Have a look-see:

^Quote cut from the above post^:
"After posting my querry last night I finally did find the culprit that was causing my "Check Now" button to jut bounce back at me.

It's Logon Loader http://www.radfiles.com/logonloader/
which is a little utility that will allow the user to launch a different logonui.exe each time that Windows XP Launches "
