There is no Scandisk ala Win9x in NT based systems i.e. NT4, Windows 2000, and XP. If you're referring to Checkdisk, Go to My Computer, right click on Local disk (C), select Properties, click the Tools tab, in error checking click on Check now, check the box for automatically fix errors and then click Start. It won't actually run immediately but will on reboot.
