I have been preoccupied with various chores but have investigated all suggestions in responses to my post and following are the results.

If I let chkdsk complete (no matter how many times, it checks and closes very fast...not possible to see the resulting report). In any case it merely repeats the cycle as I said, and the only way I can get back to a bootable system is let it complete, at which time the computer tries to boot back up and I then get a blue screen saying a problem was detected..computer shut down to prevent damage. Other lists in this screen say:

hardware/software may be improperly installed
if problem continues disable any new hardware/software

Also:

tech info=stop:0x00000071
Then the only way to get out of blue screen is to turn off computer, turn back on...Then a black screen saying windows did not start successfully, a recent hardware/software change might have caused this.
Choices are SAFE MODE, SAFE MODE W/NETWORKING,SAFE MODE W/COMMAND PROMPT, LAST KNOWN GOOD CONFIGURATION, START WINDOWS NORMALLY.

If I start normally the chkdsk cycle repeats. If I choose sfae mode in any way windows starts itself normally, cycle repeats. Only way I can get back to system boot is to choose last known good configuration.

Furthermore, Zazula I tried fsutil dirty query c: from command prompt and the report is c is not dirty. Don't want to exclude c volume form chkdsk (yet) if that is going to prevent me from using chkdsk normally after I solve this problem.

Thinking there might be a hardware problem I checked in device manager and see that my processor is listed twice, don't know why but MS says only way it should be listed twice (hyper memory support) is if processor is way above 3 mhz but my intel is about 2.8. Tried to uninstall extra listing but it self detects on reboot and reinstalls again. Also in Device mgr I have two display adapters listed but have only one monitor so don't need two adapters. Tried to uninstall also but it also self detects and reinstalls. However I don't know if any of the two latter conditions are relevant to this chkdsk problem. Any other comments or observations?
