Actually, that's a GUI wrapper around XP's chkdsk. chkdsk should also be
available at the command line on any XP system. It is also available in the
Recovery Console, into which you can boot when you boot from the CD. (You
can also install the Recovery Console on the disk and boot into it from the
XP boot menu -- sometimes quite handy, as it is much quicker than booting
and loading it from the CD.)
