WheneverI try to run scandisk, I continuosly get a message that it can't run do to disk re-wirte.

I have tried to identify which TSR program is continuously writing to my hard drive, but I cannot identify it.

What type of programs should I be looking for in my bootup files( I have eliminated programs in my msconfig files to the point that sometimes the computer fails to run at all)?

Please give me ahint of where to look.

Maybe the problem doesn't reside in terminate and stay resident programs Try to boot into MS-DOS and run scandisk from there.
