C:\Windows\system32>chkdsk G:

Eu analisei a página do TechNet sobre meu erro, mas depois de fechar todos os aplicativos, a conversão ainda estava falhando no meio do caminho. Por que continua falhando? Fiquei de olho no Gerenciador de Tarefas, mas não parecia que os recursos do meu sistema estivessem perto do esgotamento. Estou usando o Windows 8.
