Unhappy CHKDSK failing in second step

I am getting an error when my laptop boots up. The first step of chkdsk runs successfully and then it hangs. The message is:
CHKDSK is verifying files (stage 1 of 3)...
File verification completed.
CHKDSK is verifying indexes (stage 2 of 3)...
0% complete

it hangs there . Is there any time limit to it or do I have to take any additional step

The process would normally run through quickly without interuption.
Perhaps the file system is corrupted?
Download the diagnostic soft from the manufacturer of the HD. Or use a tool like "Spinrite". Even Seagate tools will work. http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/sup...loads/seatools
Or one of the many boot cds that are available.

What happens if you boot from a windows CD?
