Solve : "chkdsk /r" from Recovery Console vs. from Command Prompt?

Answer» Q: Is there any benefit to running "chkdsk /r" from the disk Recovery Console vs. just from the command PROMPT? As a maintenance procedure, how often should this be done?well, it actually works in the recovery console, that's a BIG plus.Correct. When you run CHECKDISK from the gui it does not to the entire hd scan, only the equivalent of chkdsk /f1. How often - pick a number, any number (once a month OK with you).
