How to Repair Bad Sectors

                  How to Repair Bad Sectors



1 Open My Computer. Double-click My Computer to open it.

2 Choose a hard drive to check for bad sectors. In the Explorer window, in the sidebar, right-click the hard drive you'd like to check for bad sectors, and then click Properties.


3 in the Properties window, click the Tools tab.


4 In the Error-checking section, click Check Now.

5 Choose the Check Disk options you'd like to use. In the Check Disk dialog box, you can have Check Disk fix file system errors it finds and recover bad sectors.
If you'd only like to scan for and fix bad hard drive sectors, make sure that Automatically fix file system errors is unchecked.

6 Click Start. Windows will start checking your hard drive for bad sectors and will fix any that it finds.
If you have any open files or programs at this point, you'll get an error message asking if you'd like to schedule the disk check when you restart your computer. If you click Yes, it will restart your computer and perform the disk check.

7 Review the Chkdsk report. When it's done, Chkdsk will create a brief report.
Chkdsk code 0 means no errors were found and code 1 means that errors were found and fixed.
If the check disk process failed to fix the bad sectors, your hard drive may be failing and you may want to backup your drive to a new one. [Click here] for help on backing up your hard drive.
