endless cycle running chkdsk on bootup, how do I stop it?

hi,

I discovered some issues with a few files on a secondary hard drive on my
system, so decided to do a chkdsk, went into Administrative tools/disk
management, and right clicked on the drives, (D: and F:) and chose to run
chkdsk, it said it had to reboot and run on bootup, I said ok... now it is
in an endless cycle of running on bootup...

I've tried booting up to safe mode, and bootup normally, neither work.. the
one for safe mode just stops after showing a bunch of stuff it is supposedly
installing, and does nothing... booting up normally just continues the
cycle.

How do I stop it and get it to finish booting into windows?

thanks,
niteowl
