scan disc restarts

When I run the scan disc or defrag it keeps starting over ALOT and gettng a little further each time until it is completed. A window used to pop up saying that "the system has restarted 10 times because there is another program running (or something)...so you want to keep seeing this message" until I disabled that and now it just keeps restarting until it completes the task. Is it normal for it to restart so many times during the process? I have only the very bare minimum of programs open upon start up.
Also, I have an Iomega CD burner with Roxio software which is not functioning quite right all of the time and sometimes it says that it can't work because there is "another program writing to the drive." This happens even after restating the computer and having only the bare mimimun open. Could this be related to the other restarting problem? Could the Norton antivirus be playing havoc? I would appreciate any expertise!
Thanks.
