Hi!

HERE IS A CHALLENGE FOR YOU - It's been one for me at least.

I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium on a Lenovo 3000 N100 (FPG768).

I've been getting the message that LogonUI.exe is corrupt and that I need to
run CHKDSK.
- I tried to run CHKDSK from Vista, but I got the message that I need to
schedule the running of CHKDSK at the next Reboot.
- I did that (several times), but CHKDSK did NOT run.
- I went to Scheduled Tasks and scheduled CHKDSK to run at each Reboot. That
did NOT help either.
- At the next Reboot, I pushed F8 and selected Run Safe Mode with Command
Prompt. I then tried to run the following:
* chkdsk (This only gave me the list of corrupted sectors)
* chkdsk /f (did not work)
* chkdsk /x /f /r /b (did not work)
- I then tried to run the HDD check in PC-Doctor, but the tests all
succeeded.
- I then tried to push the Lenovo Care button at system start-up; it loaded
the files, displayed the ThinkVantage start-up screen, but then rebooted
without giving me access to the Repair options.

So WHY is CHKDSK not running as it should, and WHAT CAN I DO without needing
to completely reinstall my computer? Is there a way to manually force CHKDSK
to run via the Boot Manager?
Thank you in advance for your help.

I have the same problem, and I understand that many others do also so
I am disappointed that there have been no replies. I have tried fixes
suggested elsewhere, such as a registry change, running in safe mode,
etc. I don't have a Vista disk to run chkdsk from the repair
console.

Thanks in advance for any additional help you can suggest.

Wow, I have the same exact problem on a Lenovo 3000 N100. Tried all
the same measures, CHKDSK doesn't run. We need an expert.

Hi Evan,

Try using chkdsk /f in Method Two in this tutorial. It has always
worked for me.

*Please post feedback to help others.*

For Vista, Boot up to your windows disk, choose repair my computer and
then command prompt. Then run CHKDSK C: /X/B. This automatically
dismounts the C: drive and runs the chkdsk command. /B implies the /R
that was used in XP, but it does more. It runs rechecks when errors are
found so that you don't have to run it multiple times like you did in XP
to fix remaining errors
