Here is what to do:
Edit the c:\msdos.sys and make sure you have the folowing settings:

BootMenu=0
BootWarn=0
AutoScan=0

It should do the trick.

More information aboute the msdos.sys options....
==================================================
==================


The [Options] section can contain the following settings and must be
manually inserted:
--------------------------------------------------------------------

AutoScan=

Default: 1

Purpose: Defines whether or not ScanDisk is run after a bad shutdown.
A setting of 0 does not run ScanDisk; 1 prompts before
running ScanDisk; 2 does not prompt before running
ScanDisk but prompts you before fixing errors if any
errors are found.

This setting is used only by OEM Service Release 2 and
Windows 98.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

BootMenu=

Default: 0

Purpose: A setting of 1 enables the Startup menu. If this setting is 0,
then you must press the F8 key when "Starting Windows 95"
appears, (or press and hold the CTRL key when your Windows
98-based computer restarts) to invoke the Startup menu.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

BootMenuDefault=

Default: 1 if the system is running correctly
3 if the system hung in the previous instance

Purpose: Use this setting to set the default menu item for startup.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

BootMenuDelay=

Default: 30

Purpose: This setting is used to set the number of seconds your system
will pause on the Startup menu. If the number of seconds counts
down to 0 without intervention, the BootMenuDefault is activated.

NOTE: This option is not functional unless BootMenu=1 has been added to
the [Options] section of the Msdos.sys file.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

BootWarn=

Default: 1

Purpose: A setting of 0 disables the safe mode boot warning message and
the Startup menu.
