"Restart to repair drive errors" keep showing up after reboot

Yes, I finally fixed the problem on my PC - I WENT BACK TO WINDOWS 7!

Still running WIN 8 on my laptop after disabling the error reporting centre - no reprocussions!jmb

hahaha! great fix. I also finally found a fix for this problem...i bought a mac!

=D

Yeah man i finally fixed it!!!

I got this error past week...

So here we go in order to solve it!!!

First of all try error checkingon each drive.

In most cases windows will repair all the drives except the C: Drive(or OS drive).

If windows is unable to repair other drives too and asks for Restart and repair now or Restart later and repair , just hit cancel and follow the instructions below for both OS drive and other drives

1.Run CHKDSK command for each drive from command prompt.

         #open command prompt with admin rights.

         #perform CHKDSK , example CHKDSK X: /f ('X' represents drive letter)

2.If the CHKDSK command says CHKDSK cannot run because the volume is in use by another

   process.Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system

   restarts? (Y/N)

3.Hit Y

4.Now open Run (Windows + R) type msconfig and hit enter

         #go to boot tab.

         #in the Boot options,click Safe boot and and then click Aletnative Shell in sub options

           (Alternative Shell means Safe mode with Command Prompt).

         #hit OK ,now it will ask for restart , now hit restart.

5.Now when your computer reboots windows will automatically repair the drives you scheduled in   CHKDSK command in safe mode. After everything is done rollback everything you did it msconfig

( i.e uncheck Safe boot and hit ok ) and restart, now your computer will restart in normal mode. Again check Error checkingand scan drive even if there are no errors.

I have tried all of the other recommendations to no avail - and unfortunately this response does not work for me nor will it work for hundreds of thousands of Microsoft customers that have Dells and the ilk, as Microsoft has opted to no longer provide install DVDs with new computers.

It is frustrating, as my Dell Inspiron with Intel Core i3 running Windows 8.1, now displays two of these fake drive errors and insists on performing two disk checks prior to starting almost every time I "wake" the laptop.  This can be several times a day and has caused the boot up time to expand from mere seconds to several minutes.

The disk drive error is a constant warning on my PC at the moment - and I believe that it's software related - either Windows upgrades or AdAware 11.

I have regularly run CHKDSK and it finds no problems - to get rid of the annoying Action Center message - go into Action Center and turn off the drive status message!

To avoid the CHKDSK seeming to stall on 17% I suggest that you run it with the following command chkdsk /spotfix. CHKDSK is always running in the background and the spotfix command will only address any problems found by the background runs. It also has the advantage of showing a progress %age as it runs following a reboot.

I've been running AdAware since my Dell Tablet was new and had no problems, but at some point, I am assuming after an update I  ran into the drive error problem. I had run check disk and let action center "fix" the problem several times with no success. I read the above post and gave uninstalling AdAware a  try and voila, no hard disk problem. So in my case it must have been some conflict between Lavasoft AdAware  and an update from Microsoft. I will now have to try another antivirus and see if I have the same problem.
