Disable ScanDisk

Although I am running Windows ME I could not find a group listed for that OS
so I assumed that for this problem XP is comparable(?). The problem is that
for some reason on startup my computer wants the run scandisk. There seems
to be a problem with scandisk because about three-quarters of the way
throught the sacn it locks up. If I cancel the scandisk my computer seems to
be acting OK but if I don't hover over the computer on startup I have to do a
hard reboot.

Any suggestions on how to stop the scandisk from running on startup?

Thank you in advance for comments or suggestions.
