[WEB4LIB] Scandisk problem

Could another app be periodically accessing the drive, like a virus
shield..?  Could just be interrupting the scan so part of it has to keep
starting over...

Hi,

We seem to be having trouble with Scandisk on one of our Win98
Machines.  Whenever scandisk runs (typically when recovering from a
crash), the process seems to take forever to complete compared to other
win98 machines. It does not lock up, however, and is able to finish.

When I boot to the dos prompt and run scan disk from there, it seem to
have trouble with the directory structure part of the scan.  I did a
surface scan and it found no problems.

We are running fortress.  Dunno if that matters.

Thanks,

John
