CHKDSK at boot up how do I stop?

How do I stop chkdsk from starting at boot up in win xp.
Last night in xp I went to the msdos command prompt and put in
chkdsk /f
Now ever time xp starts it had too run chkdsk at boot up.
it says you have 7 sec to hit any key if you want chkdsk to stop.
How can I get chkdsk to not run at all?
CHKDSK c: /F
Thanks
 
Go to Start > Run and type: CMD , and hit enter. Then type in:
chkntfs /x c: , and hit enter. Reboot your computer.

[This disables CHKDSK from running on drive C:]
