another way to do it is to go to the properties of the drive in this case, 
the icon/bp, don't open it but instead, press alt+enter, and control+tab to 
tools.  click check disk for errors, check the two checkboxes and click 
start and it will run.  Is there a reason for doing it from the command 
prompt?

Hi Marta:

It is under Start menu, Programs, Accessories, Command Prompt.

Once you're in that prompt, you have to type in chkdsk, followed by space 
and the letter of the drive and a colon and press Enter.

When you're finnished, type in the word exit to return to Windows status.

Hello listers:

I've seen messages herein the past advising other listers to run the check 
disk utility while the Braille Plus or Icon is in disk drive mode as a way 
to figure out what could be wrong with the device when some problems arise. 
Does this utility come with the unit?  I notice that I can not invoke it 
while the Braille Plus is in disk drive mode and connected to my PC as my 
windows xp system doesn't have it, and it appears the unit doesn't have it 
either.

How would one get this utility?

Marta
