General Computer Support / Re: chkdsk will not run, not sure what to do next

OK, I will do that.  Prob be a day or two before I get it done just due to time constraints w/ work, kids, etc.  I will post once done.  Again, thanks for the help in getting this worked through.  Weirdest thing I have had come up in a long time.

Things keep getting more interesting- when I access advanced recovery options I cannot get to where you ask me to go to.  When I click on repair windows, I get the screen telling me to insert my disk, to check or change my language, etc.  But I don't get to change my language or do anything else because I get an error message there stating the requested action cannot be performed because a required asset is unavailable (paraphrased it, I didn't write it down).
The real kicker is, for the most part, everything is working fine on the system.  If it weren't for not being able to fix the problems listed I would be a happy camper, but having corrupted files, etc and not being able to run updates is a ticking timebomb as you know.

Yes, i did make the change to the BootExecute registry entry to only the suggested entry.

Windows Module Installer was set to manual and started - no change upon reboot.  Sfc still stops at 32% with same Windows Resource Protection cannot perform the requested operation.  Chkdsk /f /r still gives option to set at restart, but it does not run, goes right into Windows boot.

I installed the HDSentinel program- no errors.  I have included the .txt file from the run.  Like the info from it- thanks for turning me on to it.

Any other suggestions to try?

* Another new thing has come up I  am assuming is related- I cannot receive Windows updates now.

I downloaded and installed the file in the specified space, re-ran the repair prescan and all is now showing good there.  It still will not run scndsk nor will it complete sfc (I get an error stating windows Resource Protection cannot perform the requested operation.)
I checked the autochk.exe and get an error that says the version of the file is incompatible with my version of Win7.
I have tried the hotfix you posted and it did not solve this issue either.
Any other ideas, short of a clean install?  I hate to admit defeat and go that route, so I hope ya'll have another path.
Thanks for all the help.

OK, here is where we are with this now.  I ran Malwarebytes and it picked up four potential programs that were adware.  Chkdsk still would not run so I ran sfc /scannow- it goes to 32% and stops w/ errors. Ran sfcfix and the file is attached.  Went into the registry w/ regedit to look at thatkey as noted in 2nd post.  I wanted to post the findings there before I edited and restored back to normal in order to better understand what was set there (if anyone can enlighten me). 
The registry key for BootExecute read:
autocheck autochk /p \??\C:
autocheck autochk *

I am getting ready to try what is in post 3 and will repost after that also.  In the meantime, anyone have a clue on the extras in the BootExecute or what I can do to fix the rest of these errors?

General Computer Support / chkdsk will not run, not sure what to do next

Hi,
I have run into a problem while attempting to update a Dell Studio 1558 (i5 w/ 6 Gb RAM).  Before attempting the work, I ran the tweaking repair tool to make sure the system was in top shape; this is where things have gone sour.  I ran the pre-check and got the following error:
C:\Windows\servicing\Packages\Package_for_KB3009736~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.0.cat
This deals with an MP4 issue which makes no sense on why chkdsk will not run on restart.  When I run it inside the tools it shows there are errors and cannot continue in read-only (log file below) mode.  When I try to set chkdsk /f in admin console and reboot it will not run.
I have tried a couple things to fix it but nothing my feeble brain comes up with has worked.  What steps SHOULD I try to resolve this issue?  Thank you for any help and light you can shed on this issue.
