When was the last time you ran a CHKDSK on your system drive (usually C:\)
and what were the results?

Hi,
Either through the scheduled task control panel by clicking Start >> All
programs >> Accessories >> System Tools >> Double click on Scheduled Tasks
and see if the chkdsk is been set to start on start up every time the
computer boot up.

Download the Autoruns:

Either clcik on Boot Execute Tab or Scheduled tasks Tab, you will see two
chkdsk, one of them will be funny looking I cannot the full wording (sorry),

[-]HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVerson\Run =
you will find one with
Or
[-]HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVerson\Run =
