Hi,

Everytime my laptop went into standby, when I restart the laptop,
Windows will inevitably start to do a ChkDsk.. That's kind of annoying.
More annoying than that, it won't be able to finish the chkdsk... Even
if I let it there for hours, it will be stuck somewhere in Index
verification or recovering orphaned files or else. I hear the hard
drive working but it's stuck there.

The only solution I've found is to boot with a ERD commander CD and do
the check disk from there. Even there, it sometime freezes. I close the
chkdsk window and restart chkdsk one or two additional time.

It's very annoying...

Any ideas?
