Each time i boot my computer checks my hard drive for consistency, i cant even abort it cause my keyboard doesnt work at that point (although it used too)

When i try to defragment it tells me it has scheduled a chkdsk, and when i do a chkdsk nothing happens.

This is driving me crazy. The drive is an 200 GB Samsung SATA
 
already tried that. it checks the disk, but the suddenly it just disappears.

i need to turn this off.. the bootsequence is almost 10 minutes long.
 
I would check SMART values just to be sure that something isn't right with the drive (you can use SpeedFan or HDTune, they are both free). It can only predict ~50% of drive failures, but it's at least something.

On the other hand it may be possible that some software is causing this (what OS are you using?).

You could also check cables...
