Disk keeper problem

Hi,
I don't know why my hard drive is always scheduled for checking every time I
boot XP
so now I can't use Diskkeeper to defrag my hard drive.... Anyone knows how
to stop that checking because it has been checked for many times. Everytime
the result is nothing, no errors... etc
Thanks
Jack

Not a WinXP problem - I would check the DiskKeeper FAQs.

I believe this is a windows issue.

First check that there are no errors on your disk: chkdsk c: /f
reboot and let it run. Normally that should clear the flag that indicates
the disk needs checking. Assuming it doesn't and the disk check continues to
run at boot (and in all likelihood you already know it doesn't or you
wouldn't have posted) then look at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;831426 for a
possible fix.

Hope that helps.

If you mean diskeeper, maybe you have it scheduled to run at boot time. Its
an option in some versions. In that scheduling, there's an option for error
checking at boot time.
