Disk Check

[NoemiChan]

I was used during the times whenever I turn on my computer, a black screen appears and saying that the disk are being scan, processed and defragmented. It's not a bad thing actually.

Recently, this doesn't happen now and I'm worried. Is some software stopping my computer to check itself whenever I open up my computer?

I wish to return that "checking" back. Is there anyway I could manually do it? I'm using Windows 7 Starter. Thank you

Run command prompt and type chkdsk /f /r.

To do it permanently you have to edit the string BootExecute under Local Machine in regedit (if I remember correctly). Otherwise, I think there is an option under run>msconfig that allows you to do it too.

Why do you want to run that annoying thing anyway on startup?

My computer hangs up for 10 secs during start ups... I think that'll do the work...
