Hard drive rror

Hard disk error 9TXFK5-7AA89Q-XD7V7G-60UN03.

Can't do a CHKDSK /F to repair, because it is always allocated to Windows. Any way to log into non-Windows environment (i.e. MSDOS) to fix>

Hello;

Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums!

Actually -- YES -- but you will need another PC to make a bootable CD or USB stick.

Goto this page and download the Minitool Partition Wizard Boot CD file: https://www.partitionwizard.com/partition-wizard-bootable-cd.html

Once you have this, you have a choice of media to create:
1) If you can boot from CD, download and install ImgBurn and use the Write Image to Disk option to create a bootable CD.
2) If you can boot from USB, download and install RUFUS and use the option to create a bootable USB stick from the ISO file.

Boot your PC with the media you created. 

When you run the app, choose the option to Check the drive, that runs CHKDSK.

Good Luck

It looks like I fixed the errors on the disk. Several new FOUND folders.

thanks
