don't ask windows nicely.. tell it what to do instead. :P
open command prompt in administrator mode, then type "chkdsk /r c:" (without the quotes)
edit: to clarify.. that command is telling the computer to check (chkdsk) the main OS drive (c:) for any bad sectors or errors and if it finds any to attempt to repair (/r) them.

My PC at work had a problem with the boot drive. After opening the PC (drive was very hot), turning it off, removing the graphics card, checking the cables, I turned it on and worked fine.
I went to the drive tools and asked Windows to check for errors, and I got a message saying:
You don't need to scan this drive
Now I have to wonder whether there are droids hiding on this drive that Windows doesn't want me to find. But of course I'm too weak of mind and succumbed to the suggestion.
