Default Scandisk won't run on USB drive

Scandisk tells me I don't have enough memory to run when I try to check a USB drive.
It works OK when I check the internal drives. Rebooting and running Scandisk first
does not help.
The USB drive has 105GB used and 80GB free. Windows crashed while it was writing to
the drive and now I get an error telling me the drive is full when I try to add any
more files to it. I can read the existing files just fine.
I figure I need to run Scandisk. Is this right?
Any suggestions on how to proceed?

I'm running Win98SE 4.10 with 640MB RAM.

Thanks in advance for any assistance

Oscar
