Welcome to TCM boyetteski.:)

"Disk Check" do you mean a scandisk or do you have something Like CCleaner loaded to scan HD at startup?

You may want to check your startup items (run msconfig and go to startup tab and you may want to check your boot.ini while there too).

The freeze up is probably caused by other conflicting programs loading at startup while whatever program is running it's scan.
