Windows server 2008 backup fails

Hi,

I'm trying to run a custom backup on my old Win Server 2008, I want to replace the C:\ hard drive.  I run the backup and select "Different Options" then "Custom" and then I select "Bare Metal" and it picks:

Bare Metal Recovery

System State

System Reserved

and Local Disk C:

I have a second drive in there that I'll reattach once I get a new C:\ Drive in there.

The backup runs but it ends with two errors in the items list:

System Reserved         shows  Completed.

C:                                 shows  Backup completed with warnings.

Bare metal recovery     shows  Backup failed to complete.

System state                shows  Completed.

In the errors tab it says:  4096 bytes could not be read due to the presence of bad clusters on your hard disk,

and so have not been backed up.  Run CHKDSK /R on the hard disk, and then retry the backup.

Whats the best or recommended way to run the CHKDSK /R ?   Just open CMD and run the command and have

it scan on the next reboot?   I can't lose the drive till I get decent backup ......  I have the C:\ contents but it's also 

a backup DC in my office.

Cheers'

Dave
