Boom chkdsk problem HELP!

Ok, got a new problem here. My friends monitor stopped working. So I took my monitor over and plugged it in, no good. So I installed an old video card and hooked her monitor to it and After two restarts, Bingo monitor works again. So I guess her video card went bad, it is also installed on her motherboard. But now I have a monitor that works but here is my new problem, since she shut down improperly, when windows starts it goes into chkdsk. It says "Checking file system on C:" after it checks it it says "File folder verification is complete" it then gives a few specks like (1703472 total allocation units on disk) etc. etc. But then it doesn"t go any further it just hangs there. Shouldn"t it go on and start windows from there? Or is it waiting for a response from me? What Response? It also says in the beginning that I can stop the process but recommends I continue, but how do I do That? I keep getting chkdsk because I can't shut the system down normally! I tried pressing Ctrl ALt Delete 3 times and that did not work. I also got the system to start in safe mode but then the mouse froze up on me? SO I still couldn't shut down normally! Any Advice out there, this is driving me nuts! How can I shut sown the system normally without the mouse in safe mode, or how can I exit the chkdsk so it loads up windows normally? HELP! this is windows XP home edition!

Or is it waiting for a response from me? What Response? -> I think you only have to hit "any key" to proceed.

Chkdsk.exe or Autochk.exe starts when you try to shut down or restart your computer
