my computer -> right click on your hard drive -> select properties -> Tools tab -> click 'check now' and then start, if it says it cant do it and would you like to schedule it for the next time windows starts just say yes and it will do it during the next boot.

The "scandisk" that is done through the GUI is the same CHKDSK that can be done from the command line. Running CHKDSK from the command gives you some options that the GUI interface doesn't allow.
