chkdsk time out troubles

I have laptop running windows xp home edition

can someone walk me through on how to change the time chkdsk checks my computer on start up it keeps cancilling on me before it is done. How do I change the time it uses to scan - so it will scan longer and not time out. Thanks

not sure what is cancilling it out

chkdsk does not have a timeout feature, if it is cancelling then something other than chkdsk is causing this.
