Why don't u try doing scandisk in Windows see whether it'll fixes the bad sectors, but i doubt that it can. :mad:

Try renaming the files scandisk.exe and scandskw.exe. Remove the .exe and put .bak. That way windows can't use them. They are in the windows folder. There is a way to disable scandisk on boot, I just can't remember how (I'm on Win2K) I'll look at a Win98 machine Monday when I get to work.

Also if you run scandisk in the through mode it may be able to repair the bad sectors.

The scandisk and defrag from WinMe are much faster. I put them on my web space if you want to use them. Put them in the C:\Windows folder, windows will give you a prompt about the files existing already, just say yes to let it over-write the old files.
