Strange bootup HDD scan !?

OK, I just got that ME installed Toshiba 2800 notebook and on reboots, some occasional times it happens that ME prompt me that the notebook wasnt shutdown properly and started the HDD scan on its own, in fact it was the case on previous shut down.

Is there anyone has similar problem, and what has went wrong.
 
IMHO, WinME is only for notebooks,....

Best solution is to go back to 98 or go to 2000. ME isnt all its ed up to be. In fact, Ive found it to be the worst version of all Windows. Improved stability, my @ss!
 
Also, check to make sure the bios settings for your hard drive are correct. Ive run across an interesting situation that I just couldnt install Windows on a computer that I KNEW had a perfectly good hard drive. Try to put the settings for the hard drive to AUTO. I know that may not be the most optimal setting, but if it stops your problem, you'll have to live with it or go back.
