I've seen this posted before, and on other sites too, but nothing seems to have worked for me. No matter how I turn off the computer, it always restarts with scandisk: thorough on startup. msdos.sys did not work... registry editor did not work... it wasnt a scheduled task and http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;290668 and http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;273017 also did nothing.

nevermind, I tried Start>Run "msconfig" Advanced>Disable Scandisk after bad shutdown. Which is strange because I already made the same change, only manually, in msdos.sys and the registry editor.
