How can I stop CHKDSK to start each time that I boot?

Under XP, SP3.

I tried a fix and received a message that said it was only the relelvant to SP2 or an earlier version.

CHKDSK runs when you restart either because you have scheduled to run at the next reboot or because your hard drive has been marked "dirty".

Maybe engaged Microsoft Support Engineer "experts" don't know that you don't have to change the registry to remove a regular chkdsk pending.

To delete all waiting for the command chkdsk scheduled, click on start, run and enter in the box:

chkntfs /d

Click OK and you will see all the messages, but which erases all orders pending regular chkdsk.

XP will automatically check the "dirty bit" on all your volumes when it restarts.  If XP detects a volume that has been marked "dirty", it will run a chkdsk with correction of errors on the volume afflicted to try to clear the dirty bit and you will see a message indicating whether to start XP.

A volume could be marked 'dirty' after something like a cut of current, power failure, aborted restart or an abnormal termination.  One of these events?

You can query the dirty bit on a volume from the command prompt window.

Click Start, run and enter in the box:

cmd

Click OK to open the command prompt window.

For example, to query the bit of impurity on drive C, type:

fsutil dirty query C:

The sample output:
Volume c is dirty
Volume C: is dirty

Is the volume of your sale or it is not dirty?

The only thing that can clear the dirty bit is a success running chkdsk with error correction, sometimes you need to run it more than once, and sometimes that does not work and you will need see if running chkdsk with the XP Recovery Console error correction can clear the dirty bit.

If you want to do this, we need to learn more about your system:

Unfortunately, MS Answers forums does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, so we know almost nothing about your system.

Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

Please MS Answers, continue to make solving simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

Provide information on your system, the better you can:

What is your system brand and model?

What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

Your system's disks IDE or SATA drives?

Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  • How can I stop CHKDSK from running on startup?

    CHKDSK turned on somehow and now every time I start my Pc it runs this program.  It is on my hard drive and takes a long time to startup!  How can I stop the program from running at startup?

    The next time your system starts and installs, you should check the bit of impurity of the volume as follows:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    cmd

    Click OK to open the command prompt window.

    To query the bit of impurity on drive C, type:

    fsutil dirty query C:

    The sample output:
    Volume c is dirty
    Volume C: is dirty

    Type "exit" to close the command prompt window.

    A volume is marked usually dirty of a power outage or something like using the power button to restart the system.  One of this kind of thing has happened before this problem?

    The command chkntfs /d to clear a chkdsk waiting you plan yourself, but it does not clear the dirty bit.

    The command chkntfs /X C: never say XP check the reader for inconsistencies again and perhaps not a good idea since the reader may really need that chkdsk to run on it.  If the dirty bit is just NOT clear, no matter what you do, your HARD disk may be failing / failed.

    The only way to clear the dirty bit is a success of chkdsk /r and if she will not clear at the start of your system, I would run it from the XP Recovery Console so you can watch it run and if you like, run it again until it runs its own.  You cannot check the good bit of impurity of the XP Recovery Console, but you can see what chkdsk/r.

    Since we don't know anything about your system, here are some instructions for making a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console and from there, you can run chkdsk/r until it comes clean.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  • How can I stop Windows 8 Start menu from popping up when I drag my mouse around using my touchpad?

    On my new laptop, whenever I try to go on the left side of my screen on the right side by sliding my finger on the touchpad, the start menu appears. How can I disable this?

    Hi friend

    Welcome to the Microsoft community,

    I preached this whole week... my pleasure to increased win8 x 100 once I turned off the edge of the touchpad scan function.  The path may be slightly different, but the synaptics touchpad is the Control Panel / hardware and audio / mouse / device settings / settings / edge shot - and disable "enable edge scans".

    This prevents context changes maddening when browsing the web or doing anything on the touch pad really... you can always access the charms on the right upper or lower, and you can always access history FRO the top left corner after that you disable this... but it is much more controlled.
    hope this helps!
    Tell me when you read this all & if the problem will still be there, then I'll help you.
    Thank you.

  • How can I stop my Win8 to do things that I give him permission?

    So many times when I have been pressed with a school thing or else busy and needed my computer, it starts to set up some updates.

    I can't replace and enter into my account, what makes me feel that the computer does things in itself, just as he had his own mind.

    The updates could be useful if I wanted to do, but as I also use the computer for flight simulation, the only change that I can find is by updates, is that my simulation software does not work or is partially inoperative.

    I hate it when the computer installs an update for me without my, approval of the computers administrator and makes me lose my time trying to get things to work again, after the updates also changed some settings, so my joysticks, microphones and speakers must be reconfigured.

    Sometimes windows update starts itself when I use the simulation software and blocks the software, when something very important is inside, and after the crash of the software is reset because the changes were not saved because of the unexpected shutdown.

    For example, now I had to have an important meeting of Skype, but missed because the windows have started to set up, install and apply the settings when I started it, the computer does not give me awareness on ongoing operations, as it is installed, I waited 20 minutes for him and he always does I paid for the computer and I want to work within 15 min of the opinion, I really want her to be the last time that I miss this meeting, fortunately I was able to advise the person I'm not able to attend the meeting.

    Finally, after 1 hour of unconsciousness, I noticed the computer installed win8.1, which I tried to tell anyway, I certainly never gave permission to the computer for that and I know by my friend, that the software will no longer work, it has updated win8 software no longer works and after 3 hours of work he did the system worked , but whenever he uses it, it crashes after about 20 minutes of use, the computer also reset all my settings.

    Thank you so much to ruin my whole week, during which I will have to fix things, instead of doing something useful.

    How can I set the computer to ask my permission to virtually any installation or update, that he wants to have, how to prevent even "thought" to make updates and give me the ability to use the computer instead of staring at the screen and read the text, the application parameters PC and configuration of Windows updates?

    (Moved to install, upgrade, and activate)

    It will begin only install updates if you ignore warnings and remain uncorrected for more than 72 hours (which is very dangerous).  So I would just look for warnings, and when one appears, restart your computer within 72 hours (which you give three days to close all the files and restart at your leisure, rather than to be interrupted when you really want to not be bothered).

    But if you don't want are not protected for more than 72 hours after that the warnings start, you can set it to never automatically install or restart if you are connected:

    1. Find PowerShell and right-click "run as Administrator".

      then

    2. Type or paste this command:

    New-ItemProperty 'HKLM:SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\au"- the name"NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"- PropertyType 'DWord' - value 1

    Welcome to Apple Support communities

    If I'm not wrong, you want to disable automatic downloads (the feature that automatically downloads all content you purchase all your devices), right? If this is the case, there are different ways to disable depending on the device that you are using:

    • For iOS: go to settings-> iTunes and App Store (or App Store), then disable everything under "automatic downloads.
    • For PC and Mac: open iTunes, go to Preferences (in the iTunes menu on a Mac) or edit on a PC-> Store menu and disable everything under "automatic downloads.

    I get a type of sound camera shutter when pages like Google or hotmail, or any page 'active', upload pictures on Web sites for example. Sometimes when things are moving quickly, it becomes a cascade of distortion of the sound, like a loud sizzle or worse. You can turn down the sound with the help of his usual device, but then of course you can not listen to any music or something else besides. It is extremely annoying, and now that I have synced my phone with my office they both the same problem. I checked all the settings and can't find a way to disable.
