    1) Close your computer
    2) Open it and leave the checkdisk do it stuff
    3) Close your computer
    4) Open it and he won't do a checkdisk anymore..

    Basically, until your let checkdisk do it stuff, he'll try over and over.

    hi unvi$ible

    Have you actually let it run right through yet? You may have a disk problem that needs to be fixed. if yes..(you have let it) I suggest you try the following things:

    • Try Run Chkdisk /f from inside Windows. then restart and let it run. see if it runs again
    • Also Check you msconfig file. (StartMenu-->Run-->mscongfig) on the general tab, make sure the button for either "normal startup" or "selective startup" are checked.. The problem you described may be related to having the "diagnostic startup" selected.


    [Edit]

    if the above suggesstion dosen't help try performing a Clean Boot in Windows XP
    Check this Article At Microsoft Chkdsk Runs Each Time That You Start Your Computer .
