Since I have installed Service Pack 4 for Windows 2000
along with several security updates, CHKDSK now runs every
time during boot up. What is causing this and how do I
stop it from running on every boot?

Thanks in advance. Marek

I've heard that typing
Chkdsk /cancel
in the Run box on your Start button will stop this problem. Does it?

Here is your answer:

E:\>chkdsk /cancel
Invalid parameter - /cancel

I've combed thoroughly through the hints in article 218461
and tried several things with no success. Here is a bit
more information about my system.
Windows 2000, SP4, FAT32 file system, multiple boot setup
via Boot Magic 8.0

I ran chkntfs on each drive on my system and none of the
drives report a dirty flag set. Unfortunately, I can't
turn off the checking of the volume with chkntfs/x because
this flag can't be used on FAT32 file systems.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Marek

Run Regedt32.exe, then navigate here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager
On the right side should be a value named BootExecute, which should be of
the REG_MULTI_SZ type.
Normal condition:
autocheck autochk *
(1 line)
Chkdsk scheduled:
autocheck autochk /m \??\E:
autocheck autochk *
(2 lines)

Make sure you have one line only.

Yesterday I fixed the very same condition on my own PC,
using my own recipe. Please post the contents of the
key I mentiond.

Is this what you had in mind?

Thanks,

Exactly, and this is the way it is on my machine. Sorry, I have
no further tricks up my sleve.
