Open regedit and goto:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager

In right-side pane, change the value of BootExecute to:

autocheck autochk *

@ vishal...thanx,....
but, the entry....that u showed, is already there....
the prob doesn't always persist.... but it occurs.....

 

[hdsk.23]

i dont know extractly what could be the reason but u can stop this error checking in my computer properties>advance>error reporting>and then selection stop error reporting but notify on critical errors....

 

[Vishal Gupta]

Try this:

Open command prompt and give following command:

chkdsk drive_letter /f/r

e.g.,

chkdsk C: /f/r

Do this for each drive.
