SYMPTOMS
If your monitor turns off while the ScanDisk tool is running, the ScanDisk
tool may quit when you press a key to resume your monitor.
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if both of the following conditions exist:
- You press SPACEBAR or ENTER to resume your monitor.
- The ScanDisk tool is the active program.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, press a key other than SPACEBAR or ENTER to
resume your monitor.
MORE INFORMATION
You can use the Power Management tool in Control Panel to specify the
length of time you want your computer to be idle before your monitor turns
off. If your monitor turns off while the ScanDisk tool is running and is
the active program, pressing SPACEBAR or ENTER resumes your monitor and
quits the ScanDisk tool because the Cancel button is the active button.
