Error checking problem during start up

Hi.

I posted the item below and got a reply
-----------------------------------------------------------------
1) disk scan:
I tried to do a disk scan and it said that it could not perform the scan
but
would have to perform it at boot-up.
Now, every boot-up, tries to do a file check and says - cant open files and
then fails.
How can I turn this off and do a disk scan?

See if CHKNTFS can help you: "Description of Enhanced Chkdsk, Autochk,
and Chkntfs Tools in Windows 2000"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=218461).
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't have windows 2000. To be correct, I was doing the "error checking"
on drive C.

How can I stop this from happening during boot up?

Thanks,

Fred
