It is actually Chkdsk.

Double-click My Computer, and then right-click the hard disk that you want to check.
Click Properties, and then click Tools.
Under Error-checking, click Check Now. A dialog box that shows the Check disk options is displayed,
Use one of the following procedures:
- To run Chkdsk in read-only mode, click Start.
- To repair errors without scanning the volume for bad sectors, select the Automatically fix file system errors check box, and then click Start.
- To repair errors, locate bad sectors, and recover readable information, select the Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors check box, and then click Start.
- You may have to restart your PC for Chkdsk to run.

Curtorsey Microsoft.

My dell Inspiron 9400 keeps freezing

This could be a number of problems, one or many. Some things to consider

1) You may be infected with a virus or a bunch of spyware. Do you have Antivirus and antispyware utilities? I recommend AVG and Spybot.

2) You may have a bad hard drive. Try booting into safe mode and run a dskchk and/or defrag.

3) You may have some faulty memory. Boot into safe mode and right click on "My Computer" click properties and make sure you have the right amount of RAM listed in this area. If not you may need to replace your memory.

Does dskchck & freezes if cancelled goes black & only cursor show

That's a common problem with Vista...you'll need to restart your computer. Start back up in safe mode...by pressing F8 at the boot screen. then restart your computer normally through the start menu. After this I would find a good copy of Windows XP Professional and back up my data, and install XP over vista.

Dell lid was slammed bad sectors and slow processing...

Honestly even if you were to get lucky and be able to get vista back onto the laptop, your going to get even more bad sectors quickly cause the hard drive is going bad.

Get a new hard drive put in there and then get the laptop restored back to factory defaults.
