well...if you want to talk, for one thing, it's not just scandisk that is "gay", the fact that you have Windows Millennium installed on purpose is gay..
 
edit the GAY MSDOS.SYS file for crying out loud....it's located in the GAY C drive...

Click on start and then run and type "MSCONFIG" without the quotation marks. Click on the advanced button and then put a check mark next to disable scandisk after bad shutdown. This is true for windows 98 and I am almost 100% sure this is true for ME.

So, which is is? *BSD, or Linux?

They are different kernels/OSes.

Jdulmage are you some fricken Nazi or something. So what if he uses freeBsd or Linux or Mac OS, his original question was about Winme and seems as how this is the win9x section of the board that is not such a bad thing is it.
Alot of the people here who ask questions about win9x do it because this is basically the best established forum for help no matter what os. i personally dual boot win2k and winme. Just because someone uses an os other than 2k doesn't make them stupid or inferior. winme is superior to 2k in one thing games especially for people who haven't got p4's or thunderbirds etc, yes 2k runs games well but not as well for lower cl@ss systems.

Go to the dos prompt and type
 
msconfig
 
then hit the advanced button on bottom right, check the box "Disable scan disk on bad shutdown"

Good ole scandisk is disabled. Thank you for the help. Oh yeah, jdulmage, don't piss me off or i'll get some people to help DoS your system. Yes, i know DoS's are lame but they work.
