APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 2.0 Standard Edition
This article was previously published under Q196227
SYMPTOMS
In Systems Management Server 2.0, Windows 95 or Windows 98 client computers running Smsls.bat for the first time receive the following message if they are also running Scandisk at logon (either through startup or as a scheduled task):
ScanDisk has restarted 10 times because Windows or another program has been writing to this drive. Quitting some running programs may enable ScanDisk to finish sooner. Do you want to continue receiving this warning?
CAUSE
Scandisk is attempting to inspect the hard drive before the Systems Management Server client installation running in the background finishes.
This is a particular problem for older computers where it may take several minutes for Systems Management Server client installation to complete. After the Systems Management Server client installation finishes, Scandisk will complete.
