chkdsk freezes

Hello,

I've tried to do chkdsk twice and it stops at 55% of the free clusters. My
laptop gets very hot, also. I have an HP DV6700se. I have SP1 installed and
all available updates. Everything else is working fine. Anybody have an idea
of what the problem is?

Thanks in advance!

Find the name of your installed HD manufacturer, then visit their site &
download/create their checking utility.
Ensure all vents are clear of gunk

Thanks. I'll give it a try. The laptop is only 6 months old and the last
time that I ran chkdsk there were no problems.
