HP Pavillion PC running XP Media Center wont stay on. When push button, comes on for approx. 10 seconds.?
When it comes on, the HP welcome screen comes up with F1 for setup, and F10 for something else, but keyboard is non-functional. Turns off after about 10 seconds. Power supply is less than 1 year old, and hard drive is about 2 years old. Haven't yet had a chance to check out voltages coming from power supply, but the fan comes on. Thanks in advance.

1. Double-click My Computer, and then right-click the hard disk that you want to check. 2. Click Properties, and then click Tools. 3. Under Error-checking, click Check Now.

Note If one or more of the files on the hard disk are open, you will receive the following message: The disk check could not be performed because the disk check utility needs exclusive access to some Windows files on the disk. These files can be accessed by restarting Windows. Do you want to schedule the disk check to occur the next time you restart the computer? Click Yes to schedule the disk check, and then restart your computer to start the disk check. The following table lists the exit codes that Chkdsk reports after it has finished: Exit code Description 0 No errors were found. 1 Errors were found and fixed. 2 Disk cleanup, such as garbage collection, was performed, or cleanup was not performed because /f was not specified. 3 Could not check the disk, errors could not be fixed, or errors were not fixed because /f was not specified.
