How to check windows partion for bad sectors form ubuntu

hi
I think my hdd has got some serious problem my windows is not booting also

Code:

chkdsk

from repair is not working system hangs with "tick sound"

i wana know how can i check My windows partion for bad sectors from ubuntu

I know that :

Code:

fsck == software/data corruption. 
badblocks == physical damage inspection

but will they inspect my windows partion or linux partion only ? and if it can check then what should be the parameters ?

For ntfs or for FAT32? For FAT32 you can use dosfsck. Not sure if this works for NTFS. Do unmount the FAT32 partition by typing

Code:

sudo umount /path/to/partition

before exec'ing dosfsck

nice..hope using dosfsck doenst affect my data...does it?

Don't think so. Atleast nothing's happened to my data till now
