Running CHKDSK /f /r computer locks up on #1 of the countdown.

I used the command prompt as admisistrator and typed in CHKDSK /f /r, after restart computer locks up on the count down to start scan at #1.  After a hard shut down I pressed F8 and tried to run CHKDSK /f /r again at the command prompt in the System Recovery Options.  I recieved the fillowing message

"Cannot lock current drive.  Windows cannot run disk checking on this volume because it is write protcted."

I have windows 7 64 bit OS

Thanks for your help with this, Dan
