My HDD was corrupted recently so that Windows would not boot. I installed a new drive complete with a reinstall of Windows XP Pro and all my software. Luckily the data on the old drive was still accessible and I am using it as a slave in case I missed any data during my data transfer. When I boot up my Windows XP starts to check / scan the drive for errors. I have 10 seconds to abort this or I have to reboot again. I think this is because the old drive (now slave) is recognized as corrupt. I have altered BIOS to try and stop this but to no avail. Is there any way of stopping this check at boot up?
