scandisk runs on every boot

J

Jason Byrnes

A little while ago I had a BSOD system crash that forced a scandisk when it
booted up again as expected, but now, scandisk runs on every boot and there
are event id 55 "The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and
unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume D:." erors in the
system log. I have three hard drives installed, one is a Samsung 120gb
partitiond into C: and E: the other is a Maxtor 80gb split into D: and F:
the third is a Segate 80gb split into G: H: the only two partitions effected
by this problem are E: and F:, any ideas how to stop running scandisk on
every reboot?

Thanks
Jason

How to view the Chkdsk Log Entry:-
You will find the chkdsk log entry in the Application log of Event Viewer.
To access the Event Viewer
.. Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools> Event Viewer > Application.
.. Look for the Event from the source "WinLogon".

Assuming the filing system is NTFS you can run chkntfs from the cmd prompt
and cancel the boot time chkdsk.
