Problem with disk "consistency" - file system FAT32 .... ?

I have a Windows XP OS. For the last few days, I have to boot the compy Twice before it "settles" down.

When I start the compy, it boots fine. Then suddenly it shuts down completely. I have to re-start And it checks Drive C before Windows is set up.

The message tells me that it needs to check File System FAT32 ... and check disk for consistency Volume Serial number 1020-7395. What do these mean?

My tech-man has asked us to back-up everything & Only when the system collapses completely, will he be able to locate the problem.

Can anybody give some info or suggestions?

Thanks :-)
