Scandisk runs every boot; MS IDE fix no good...

I tried stopping the scandisk from running every time with the MS product update for this problem with Windows ME.

It was to introduce a 2 second delay in shutdown to give the cache time to copy.


The manual regedit to make the delay posted in an MS bulletin also failed to do the trick.

It would be nice if it would stop, but I have no clue what to try next.

Does WinME still use MSDOS.SYS? If so:

at the command prompt, go to c:\

attrib msdos.sys -s -r -h
edit msdos.sys

Look for, or add the line that says Autoscan= and change it to say
Autoscan=0

save and exit
attrib msdos.sys +r +s +h
