I am getting this error message.  I also get "windows- delayed write failed" message. My computer will boot when I cancel the ckdsk, but will freeze soon after.  Is there something I can do?

It sounds like your hard drive is failing. I'm assuming that D:\ is a hard drive or a hard drive partition and not a CD/DVD drive.

Test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility downloaded from the drive mftr.'s website or use Seagate's SeaTools For DOS. You will create a bootable CD with the file you download. You will need third-party burning software to do this such as Roxio, Nero, or the free ImgBurn. Burn as an image, not as data.

Boot with the CD you made and do a thorough test of the drive. If it fails any physical tests, replace it.
