re: Disabling ScanDisk/CheckDisk At Win2k Startup? Tuesday, January 25, 2005 at 11:19 pm Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Nucks (5 messages posted) I tried that awhile ago after reading through 'Dex' information. It didn't work and I didn't understand what the message "The type of file system is FAT32" meant. It was quite vague, and I thought it was just a command that told me what type my fat was. After reading the replies I realize it doesn't work on FAT32, and only on NTFS. I guess there's not much else I can do, thanks for the help though ;o.
