Autochk

Solved

Hello,
I start my PC, Windows boots up and I get the message autochk program not found. Then the PC reboots.

I searched the forum for previous topics:
-I tried safe mode, it doesn't work.
-going to start run and typing a magic formula, I can't since I can't even access my desktop.
-the Windows installation CD, I press R to go to repair and then it asks me: "which installation of XP would you like to log on to?" I typed C, D, every letter of the alphabet has been tried but nothing works, I get an error message and I'm stuck.

What else can I do besides reinstalling Windows?

Thank you in advance to anyone who could respond.

Biloute.
Configuration: Windows XP Firefox 2.0.0.14

    I found this solution

    ......................
    Autochck - Not found

    When the error systemroot/Windows/system32/autochk.exe not found. Skipping autochk appears at startup, it may mean that a value is missing or contains incorrect data in the Registry. Proceed as follows to fix the issue:

    By starting/Run... (or Windows+r) type regedit

    Select and back up the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager

    Check that the Multi-String value named BootExecute exists and contains at least the value autocheck autochk * correctly entered, namely with a space between the k and the *. If the value is missing, recreate it.
    If the autochk error occurs in conjunction with an XMNT2xxxx error, it is caused by Partition Magic. See XMNT............

      Thank you for replying.
      But I can't access the start menu. The PC freezes after the Windows XP page appears on a black background. It's impossible to go further.

    And as you said earlier, you can't even reinstall Windows?

      I wanted to make a Windows repair.

      I didn't try to do a complete reinstall. Do you think it's the only solution?

        Hi,
        Were you able to reinstall Windows and thus solve your problem? I just had exactly the same issue....!
        Thank you
