Default Volume dirty
Dell Inspiron E1505. Each time I start up it shows that the "volume is dirty"!
What does that mean and how would I clean it? LOL
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming....
*Woha! What a great ride!* !

open a command window - start - all programs - accessories - command prompt, in there type chkdsk x: /f - x: being the drive you want to check, if its the c: drive (main drive) you will have to reboot the computer.

The above command tells it to check the drive and fix errors
