Yes, it ran automatically (the dirty flag was set due to my having to cold 
boot by pressing Ctrl-Alt-NumLk/NumLk) and the resulting chkdsk.log file 
showed:

   (I cut & pasted the output from  PM Chkdsk Log Formatted - ver 1.2)

So, as you can see in Log Entry 4, since my eComStation folder's BAG file 
got nuked, I immediately went in and re-indexed my folders.  The eComStation 
reindex finally counted up to 16K and some change and then the machine 
appeared to hang again... Ctrl-Esc/Alt-Esc wouldn't work, Net Admining in 
from another machine wouldn't work, and even C-A-D wouldn't reboot, only 
Ctrl-Alt-NumLk/NumLk would do anything.
