The last couple of nights I have shut down the computer as normal ie closed all open windows, pressed start/shutdown and the the puter shows "Windows is shutting down" and then it tells me it is safe to turn off the computer. No problems there.

Next time I start the computer it tells me "Because Windows was not properly shut down........ and then runs scan disk.

Any reason it is doing this at the moment?

OS 98SE

Thanks Smithie

Try doing a completed scan disk & run Disk Defragmenter & see if that helps
