Granted others may have helped, but I simply want to make sure you are
using a freedos tool on a drive that is running freedos?
meaning that drive was formatted with freedos, not ms dos?
If not one reason for the error is that you should not use chkdsk from
one edition of dos on another.
Hi!

So has that solved your problem? I guess without ":"
our chkdsk might have tried to open a disk image file
with file name "c" and used a misleading error message?
I admit I have not read the chkdsk data, just intuition.

Thanks, Jim:
I'll plan to do another virtual
meet-up in November or December (probably early December).
I'm most active afternoon to evening. That will be Australia Eastern
Daylight Time. AEDT is UTC+11:00.

Thanks, Karen:
The computer I am using to write this email, running the later edition
of ms dos I referenced has two hard drives split into four partitions.
Which DOS programs do you use?

Hi
I am trying to fix some error on my disk with the FreeDos "check
disk"(chkdsk) and gives the "Error accessing the volume", this is with
the "/F" flag and booted through MS-DOS. Why might I have this error?
Did you want to see a photo of the output above this?
