One question: did you actually manage to run the Windoze version of scandisk? If not, that would explain all those file errors, as DOS did say it couldn't fix some errors on the disk.

If Windoze wouldn't let you do that, then booting up in safe mode is probably your best bet.

Press and hold the F8 key just after the BIOS messages finish appearing on the screen and just before Windoze starts to load. A menu should then appear giving you several options.

Once in safe mode, ignore the fact that you only have 16 colours and run scandisk on all drives. Once that's done, you can restart normally.
