I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop, a few years old now, and it won't boot to windows. I can get to a command prompt so ran chkdsk on the C and D partitions, but I can't run it on X (boot) because it is write-protected. When I go to notepad from the command prompt, and go to open files, I can see that on Boot (x there is 504 MB free of 507 MB. Windows is installed on C drive.
In my limited knowledge, it seems maybe the boot partition of the drive has failed, meaning it can't open windows, but the rest of the drive is intact? So I need to replace the hard drive?
TIA,
Amy.
