There is no scandisk in W2k. It has been superseded by the
much more powerful chkdsk.

For chkdsk syntax, go to a command prompt and type chkdsk /?

You will also find Start|Help very useful.

There's no scandisk in W2k (that's a 9x thing). What about going to a
command prompt and typing:

chkdsk /f <enter>

Not sure what ZA problems you're having....
