My Computer

<div class="IPBDescription">Now has a problem :(</div> OK, now I've reformatted my disk because it kept restarting without loading Windows, but that's fixed

Now the problem is that Windows always runs CHKDSK everytime I reboot my system. Is there anyway I can stop this from happening? It doesn't even want me to Defrag (Chkdsk is scheduled to run, please run chkdsk /f)

Hopefully someone can help

And yes, my specs

Intel Pentium 4 2.4 GHz
Windows XP Home Edition
Maxtor 30GB 7200 rpm

Hopefully someone can help me with this problem, because it's annoying <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Try having it do a full scan once thru...

If it runs it when Windows boots, why don't you take it out of your start-up menu? Someone else will tell you how...it escapes me at the moment, sorry.

I always let it scan through my harddisk, but it just keeps loading up CHKDSK everytime after I reboot, even after it runs a full scan

EDIT : Maybe I forgot to say that it loads CHKDSK <b>before</b> it loads Windows.

Um, if its doing that thats generally a sign that your hard drive, or your windows installation is b0rked. Try formatting again would be my advice.

Are there any noises coming from the comp? Or is there no change?

Could possibly be the harddrive because CHKDSK /F would fix errors on my harddisk....sadly it won't load CHKDSK /F for some reason....instead it loads regular, normal CHKDSK everytime I reboot

I'm looking into getting a new harddisk soon, because I'm sure that the HDD is damaged by some sort. Plus, I need more space <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

Generally I could use that drive for storing my files and game though....shame to waste it, so better stay with it till the end

But then, if anyone ever knows how to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated.

@DrVirus - Your computer generating noise surely has nothing to do with damaged harddisks unless your HDD somehow breaks into little shiny fragments....ohhh preccciousssss......
