I have upgraded 2 machines in the office from windows 2000 to windows XP Pro. Now when I go too do a scan disk it lets me do it and says it will run next time windows starts and well it doesn't. I says it is going too but doesn't do it. So it starts up with this screen all the time now.

Why is it not working and how do I stop it from doing it???

can you post the actual message it gives you? that would make it easier to figure out, also what other programs are running on startup? any anti-virus or other scanning type programs?

It is the normal message that you get but it just says that it can not run.

Did you install service packs 1 and 2 or just 1 ?
Service pack 2 has some bugs but not sure if that would affect ScanDisk.

Have you scanned for Viruses and Adware ?

I have not installed SP2 as I have been told that there is a lot wrong with it. SO staying away from that. This problem is happening on 2 computers.

I scanned for Viruses and ad-aware and spyware a weekly basis so nothing to do with that.
