XP keeps checking one of my hard drives. Runs check disk every time on start up. There are no errors found.
It is annoying, but I can live with it.
How can I get rid of it?
Any help is as always appreciated.
Cheers Vaclav

Thanks, I briefly scanned the link.
I goes from obvious - bad drive to sometimes silly - " have you checked your cables", " did you power down properly" etc.
The best "guess", and they all are guesses - with one exception, is still a bad disk. My "problem" is that it is a part of what used to be main OS partition and I do not have problems with the other partitions. That still does not mean that the problematic one is not messed up.
I think I'll check what is on the partition / drive, it is part of my backup, and than reformat it.
Unless someone comes up with a real answer.

I dont have XP, but it looks like (the second link) you can just can set some values in the registery and it wont run the disk check...

I feel that my problem is related to the fact that this used to be active OS drive and the current one has some leftovers in registry about it. It will take some guts to really get into the registry to find it. But I need to finsh some software first - just in case!
