autochk error message

[Farhan]

when system shuts down improperly, scandisk runs on restart as usual but
after this a message is displayed:

"autochk has caused an error in autochk.exe
autochk will now close
if you continue ...........
............try restarting your computer"

after pressing close button on it computer works normally.

should I worry? any solution?

I cannot use restore option cause this problem is two weeks old.


Thanx in advance,

Farhan

It means, as you suspected, that shutdown isn't really occurring, and this
can put your data at risk. Try these steps:
