Default Vista chkdsk wont skip

I've tried everything and I'm about to format and reinstall vista if I can't
get any help.

I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate x64. My computer boots up fine gets to
the windows splash screen then does chkdsk and freezes after checking drive
C:. Restarting causes it to get to the Windows splash screen again and run
chkdsk and freeze after checking C:. I cannot get out of this loop as my
keyboard stops working at the Windows splash screen. Even using a PS2
keyboard has the same result. I have tried the following:

Going into the vista repair setup thing running command prompt and typing
chkntfs /x c: d: e: and then restarting. it still runs chkdsk it still
freezes and I still cannot skip chkdsk.

I sheduled these myself but did not expect them to freeze. I cannot stop
them from checking and every time I let it run through it freezes. Can
someone please help.
