Scan disc problem

I have a dell dimension 8200 pentium 4 1.7 GHz, 256MB, 80 GB Hard Drive with the windows ME program. I currently have road runner as my internet provider. Whenever I try to Scan disc it starts then after awhile it will restart. After awhile a prompt comes up that says another windows program keeps running and has interupted 10 times. Do you want to keep receiving this message? I never get to finish the procedure because it takes forever. Please help me.

    Ctrl+Alt+Delete to end task everything but explorer and systray and then run scan disk. It should run okay then. A good program to do this all at once is enditall. get it here:
