There can be numerous causes for this.

Checkdisk (chkdsk.exe) is some time ago replaced by a newer version (32-bit
IIRC). Do you have the new version?

If you do have HPFS partitions, check your config.sys:

IFS=D:\OS2\HPFS.IFS /CACHE:xxxx /CRECL:x /AUTOCHECK:xxxxxx

(you should replace the xxx's with whatever value you need)

D: is my boot partition. Check if the /AUTOCHECK: parameter is present and
lists all the HPFS-partitions you have, it needs to have all the
HPFS-partitions.

What harddisks do you have? Brand? SCSI? IDE? Capacity? Which year is your
BIOS made?
