My hard disk was partitioned to C, D and E and they were all first FAT32-formatted with Windows XP on drive C. However, since I formatted drive E to NTFS, I have always got the problem that drive E is checked every time I start Windows.

Its probably one of two things. There is either bad sectors in that particular partition of the drive or the partition table is out of wack and needs to be rebuilt. While in Windows go to My Computer and right-click E: and then to its properties. There is a tools tab that will allow you to run a diagnostics. If the option is available, select an option for attempt repair. It may ask to run this the next time your computer boots. Let it run through it. If this does not solve the issue. I'd backup all the drives if possible before reformatting anything. Though it may be limited to that particular partition and reformatting E: may solve the issue, having bad sectors on a drive can be seen as a warning prior to total drive failure which would effect C,D and E. Just to be safe, backup and check to see if the warranty is still valid.

I honestly don't know, but to find out I would press control-alt-delete and try to find what program is working the most during the check. DON'T SHUT IT DOWN WHILE IT IS WORKING YOU ARE JUST OBSERVING NOW. then disable it during start-up using run and typing msconfig. CHANGE ONE THING AT THE TIME, this can freeze the system. I would let an expert do it if you have sensitive data or re-formating would be a problem. If you have any questions e-mail me productcheck@yahoo.com. I'm sure some else might know how to disable this, then my answer would be of no use.

You should go to www.PCWORLD.com and research your issue there. Have you tried allowing it to run a full and complete scan. If yes, then your issue probably have to do with the way you partitioned the drive. If no, then let it run a full and complete scan, this should resolve the issue. FYI, back up all of your info on another drive ASAP, chances are this drive is starting to go bad and will probably die soon. I have had similar issues and lost tons of data.

after I've seen this, what i stumbled on I had to do is enable the try run to of entirety, then make certain that I continuously did a useful shutdown. the project with that stategy is that if ability is lost, then you definately are again to wanting to run the attempt to of entirety. Any time living house windows crashes or loses ability, the disk partition has ability issues and desires the integrity verify.
