Looks like I've suddenly got a problem. While rebooting a keyboard driver
installation, Chkdsk wanted to check the C drive. It seemed to be stalled
well after Stage 3 of 3 was completed, so I forced the system down.

Sure enough, it came back with the reboot and I let it run again. This time
it found errors related to "File 9" in Stage 2, Index checking. In Stage 3
it began to Insert *thousands* of Indexes into File 9. I was determined to
let it do its thing, but after maybe 1500 insertions I began to think Chkdsk
was hosing my entire drive.

I forced shutdown again and overrode Chkdsk's desire to run again. I'm
booted up now, but I'm getting corrupt files notices all over the place.

The way forward?

Thanks much,
Paul
