I have windows XP professional installed and am facing 2 problems w.r.t.
startup and shutdown:
1. Whenever I choose to shutdown, it goes through its shutdown process and
agains starts up the system.
2. On start, irrespective whether the earlier shutdown was normal or not, it
always goes for disk checking.

Pls help as to how can I resolve these issues.

Stop CHKDSK from running at boot time
http://www.jsiinc.com/SUBA/tip0000/rh0008.htm
1.Edit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager
2.Change the BootExecute entry from:

autocheck autochk * /.........

To:

autocheck autochk *

If you have scheduled CHKDSK for multiple volumes, there will be an
autocheck entry for each volume. Delete the string from the BootExecute
registry value for each volume you do not want checked. If you have NT
4.0, SP2, a new command line utility, CHKNTFS, will assist in
preventing repeated CHKDSKs during reboots if the "dirty" bit is set.
Type CHKNTFS /? and see KB article Q160963.

Apologies for the late response... I did check this up... It is set to
autocheck autochk *
