My computer was working fine until last night. Now when I go to log in I receive a blue screen saying that the computer will shut down to prevent any further damage from occuring. I have tried to restore to a previous point in time when my computer was working
but then I get the error:
The disk OS (C:) has errors.
Windows has detected file system corruption on OS (C:). You must check the disk for errors before it can be restored.
So then I go to run the chkdsk utility and I get the error:
Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in the use by another process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts.
I am confused because the chkdsk unility usually works and I have no idea why it is in use by another process. I am clearly not very good with computers. I tend to get a lot of spywear and adwear on my computer. I have Spyware Doctor which removes any infections.
Please help. I have tried everything. Thanks.
