text notifications

[Poles19]

Hi,
I just bought a galaxy S and I love everything about it so far, the only issue I have is with the text messages. On my old phone, when I received a text message, the phone would go off every two minutes until I could check my text. Is there a way to set up the galaxy S so the phone goes off more than once until I can check my text?
Thanks for the help everyone!

Go into the messaging app then hit the left "menu" key, it should give you the settings menu then scroll down to notifications and you should be able to set reminders there.

The only two options I have under notification settings are the options for ringtone and the to display message notification in status bar.
