CHKDSK hangs and Defrag will not initiate due to scheduled CHKDSK

Asked by 219com in Windows 2003 Server, Computer Servers

Tags: Server 2003

I have a partition that is 500Gb of 47% fragmented files.  I have tried to do a CHKDSK ont he volume but it is so badly fragmented the process hangs on 'analyzing indexes'.  I let it run all weekend and it is definatly hung.  I tried to defrag but it will not defrag because a CHKDSK is scheduled.  I have tried both Windows defrag as well as Disk Keeper.  I have CHKNTFS /x to cancell CHKDSK on reboot and there is no entry I can find in the registry to schedule the test.  Any ideas on how to cancel this CHKDSK so I can defrag and CHKDSK at a better time?
