Just press F8 when you boot Win95/98

Choose: "3: Modo a prueba de fallas" , that's spanish. I think in
english should be something like: "3: Fault proof mode".

In this way no inicial program is loaded. This initial programs can
write to the disk while doing the scan, not allowing to finish the
test.

Just yesterday night I discovered this solution after having passed
the "10 times" several times.

I just could not defrag the hard disk without doing a scandisk first.
