Stop "Check Disk" from running at boot time

2.Change the BootExecute entry from:

autocheck autochk * /.........

Delete the string from the BootExecute registry value for each volume you do not want checked.

Note: If you have NT 4.0 & SP2. A new command line utility CHKNTFS, will assist in preventing repeated CHKDSKs during reboots if the "dirty" bit is set.
