Constant Checkdisk at startup?

Every time I startup my computer now, it does a checkdisk on my E:\ partition. It never finds a problem, but it always does the check. When I try to defrag the partition, it gives me a popup saying that the dirve is scheduled for a Checkdisk and that I need to do that first before defragging.

How can I get rid of this problem? I was thinking that my only option would be to clear it off and just format the partition, but if at all possible, I would like to avoid that for now. It is a 40GB partition mainly full (about 75%) of MP3s.

Thanks for any suggestions.
 
what windows OS you running?

do you have task scheduler running?

what did you use to partition the drive i.e. 3rd party software (partition magic) or fdisk?
 
Ooops... I guess that would have helped...

Running XP Pro with SP1. All drivers are currently right up to date.
Task Scheduling is turned off and has never been turned on.
Fdisk was used to partition the drive about last spring.

I have recently reinstalled XP. The problem had occured before the reinstall, but it is still there afterwards. It is a 80GB drive partitioned into 3 drives: C: 5GB, D: 40GB, and E: 35GB. I have had the drive partitioned like this since last spring with no problems. Both the C and D drives are fine and can be defragged without an issue.
