Running Windows XP Home Edition SP1 and when using the error checking tool,
after double clicking my computer, then right clicking the C drive, then
clicking properties, clicking tools and under clicking the check boxes.
Rebooting the computer a message appears, the volume is locked and error
checking cannot be run. The computer then proceeds to reboot my settings.
How can the volume be unlocked? With it's various problems, Windows XP
Service Pack 2 is not allowed on my computer. Can you help me please?

You can't while you are running Windows... To check the system drive,
you must allow the check to be done before Windows boots up...
