Ok Mark, just in case you haven't figured it out...
CHKDSK can check all drives during a windows session BUT NOT DRIVE C: for errors. Drive C: must be checked after reboot to allow CHKDSK access to the entire drive (which it can not whilst Windows is running).
So, if you want to check (and fix any errors found) a drive other than C: (F: for example), you can use Start -> Run and type "CHKDSK F: /f" (without quotes), which means:
CHECK DISK F: and FIX errors if found
You can change F: for another drive letter. If you wish to check drive C:, you can use the above, but you must reboot to allow the program to work. This is only true of drive C:.
(You can see from the above that you are confusing "F:" (the disk to be checked), with "/f" (the option to automatically fix any errors found).
