Why does win2k not perform an automatic scandisk like win98 does when there is a crash? Is it wise to run a scandisk (chkdisk) when there is a crash? Does this have somthing to do with the superiority of NTFS vs. FAT32? Mike L.G.

It is wise to use a scandisk after a crash. I am not sure why it is not automatic. Maybe some one on the board knows. But do run it AND chkdsk after a bad shutdown. James Collins
