Open regedit and goto:

Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager

In right-side pane, change the value of BootExecute to:

autocheck autochk *

Try this:

Open command prompt and give following command:

chkdsk drive_letter /f/r

e.g.,

chkdsk C: /f/r

Do this for each drive.
