Scandisk on bootup
Hi all
I have run into a very strange problem. My company desktops update via WSUS - they are mostly Win7 machines but we have a few WinXP too. Recently all desktops are running a scandisk when powered on...its as if their file structure is corrupted. Going into their event viewer I found this error on all desktops: "The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume OS." Then what I did is that I ve run SFC /SCANNOW and then CHKDSK C: /F /R. Unfortunately problem persists....this scandisk keeps coming up!!
Can you suggest something on how I can force it not to come up ??
Thanks a lot guys

You mention WSUS in your post. Do you feel that is related to the problem? Does the problem get worse after an update?
Can you change some settings on one system to see if it helps? You might try disconnecting one from the network for testing.
Does the event viewer give any more info other than what you indicated?
I suppose you run virus checks on a regular basis..
The C: partition is the only partition checked during the automatic Chkdsks? If the /R switch is there to help recover readable information, is anything being recovered?

There are a lot of weird Windows 7 behavior issues associated with this.....Scandisk on bootup

Microsoft re-releases botched patch as KB 2840149, but problems remain | Microsoft windows - InfoWorld
Auto-running of ChkDsk is of several.
