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.

Don't you get an option to skip the CHKDSK at the boot?

Assuming you can get to safe mode at the boot, at a command prompt type

sfc /scannow

Let it run and it will fix some errors and maybe not some, but it may help.

Also read this to stop it checking and get you out of the loop

When you do run check disk, it has to be at an elevated command prompt
(right click and select run as administrator) and then type

CHKDSK C: /R/F

And select Y to do it at next reboot. On big drives it can take HOURS

Do one drive at a time
