What is FAT32 on blue screen?

[Guest]

Hi,
I encounter another problem here, when start up my window xp, before
entering into the desktop, there is a blue screen popping up telling me about
FAT32, checking file...... then it went through series of percent and file
then can enter desktop. And it show up almost everytime when i star the
computer. Anybody any idea what is this all about?

be ntfs file system.To stop the chks,go to run type:cmd In cmd type:
CHKFAT32 /x C: To upgrade the system to ntfs,in cmd type:CONVERT C:
/FS:ntfs

What are you talking about? Chkfat32 was an NT4 utility, not used in XP.

Hi,

There are a number of reasons that the chkdsk utility could be running. Try
this for starters:
