WinXP auto disk-check on startup

WinXP has a very annoying and repeating feature: in case of any improper shutdown it launches it's disk-check utility on the after coming boot of the computer. In any previous windows OS this feature could be cancelled, but in spite of all my efforts I didn't find the solution to this problem.
Does anyone know how to check this off?
 
just convert to ntfs, it won't need to do the checks then. Turning them off can be nice, but your disk will eventually get corrupted, or loose alot of space.
 
Open regedit and navigate to HKey_Local_Machine\System\Current Control Set\Control\Session Manager and locate the Boot Execute Multi-String value. Right click and select Modify. Enter the value "autocheck autochk*" without the quotes. If the string doesn't exist just add it. ;)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
