  Hello

  1. when exactly you get this error message?
  2. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?

  Check if the problem persists in the clean boot state.

  From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

  1. click on start and then click Run.
  2. type msconfig and click OK.

  The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

  3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.

• When I opened my computer it always tells me that the file is damaged and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility... I searched my computer for "chkdsk utility" and can't find that. Help, please!

  Can someone help me please, I don't know how to use a computer I was googlen 4 days! When I opened my computer it always tells me that the file is damaged and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility... I searched my computer for "chkdsk utility" and can't find that. Help, please!

  From what you say, you are probably unable to start Windows.

  In this case, when you start the computer, keep tapping the key "F8" on the keyboard until the Advanced menu comes up. Then choose "Safe Mode".

  You will see something like your ordinary, here to enter office "chkdsk volume: /f" (replace with your hard drive volume, in most cases, it's 'c') at the command prompt.

• All Users Temp damaged and unreadable

  Recently, every time I play a game on my computer or open a program that writes to a specific folder, I get a message that the file is "damaged and unreadable.  The folder is C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Temp.  I can't open the folder as he calls the same message "corrupted and unreadable" However right click and checking the properties of the folder say it is empty.

  Things tried so far:
  chdksk that indicates the volume was dirty, cleaned the inconsistencies, no bad sectors.
  has ran diagnostics hard drive which is no problem;
  ran scans with antivirus/antispyware programs updated (all results were clean);
  Defragment the hard drive and ran the system cleanup.

  My computer is fully patched with all Microsoft Security updates and hardware drivers are up to date.  I am running Windows XP Home edition, with 2 GB of RAM, processor 2.79 GHz, 110 GB hard drive with 83 GB free.  Does anyone have an idea re: this may be the cause and how can I solve this problem?

  Thank you.

  I just wanted you to know, I have used Hirens to begin the GUI miniXP and was able to delete the TEMP folder to use.  Then, I ran chkdsk /r again and rebooted.  The folder was gone and I hired no additional error of all programs opening who was writing in this folder.  And each several reboots, the record has yet to appear again.

  I have no explanation how this folder appeared and executable program wrote it, but I suspect that the hard drive could be on the way, despite the chkdsk and hddiagnostics say otherwise.

  Everything is saved and I'm ready to install a new drive if the worst should happen.

  Thank you for all your help with this strange problem.  I certainly appreciate.

• damaged or unreadable file

  My problem with these files unreadable or corrupt, it's that they are connected somehow to my iTunes application. He's been close a months ago that my problem with iTunes started. The app will not retain the library on the app between sign - on. I did the following (not necessarily in this order):

  1 uninstalled iTunes (in order of iTunes, yes every step) and reinstalled iTunes at least 3 times. I even upgraded to the most recent upload Saturday hoping that a fix or something.
  2. I posted on the apple forum. Not an answer. Many points of view. Boo.
  3. I ran the disk check. Also several times.
  4 restart the computer in "safe" mode Tried to delete the files. Always 'impossible to delete corrupt or unreadable files.
  My music files are stored on an external hard drive, so I have not lost any music. I know! And it plays fine on iTunes if I load a file or 2 to listen to, but can not sync with iPod. I am short of ideas also ask google to search. Can someone give me something that I have not tried?
  I am very good following the directions. The only security I have on the computer is MSE. In March, I had major problems & someone to malwareremoval.com with me through a process of 2 weeks of cleaning of a viral attack. We moved most of the files on the disk "D" to help drive "C" CPR. Very good worked til about a month ago.
  My computer is old. Around 1999. Updated to XP and have MS update. Also recently (Sept) access is returned to the humble DSL fiber optic internet. It was a gesture of 1000 miles. Don't know if that has anything to do with it.

  Without knowing which file he thinks is unreadable or corrupted, it is difficult to solve.  You could try downloading/running "Process Monitor".  This will display all the disk access and whether or not they are successful.  Of course, it will throw a lot of information to you that you will have to sort through, but must indicate failed disk access attempts...

  Process Monitor: <> http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645 >

  If you know which files give you bad, then "Unlocker" delete often otherwise UN - delet.able files:

• Disc damaged and unreadable - what to do?

  Hi all
  The hard drive of my laptop gives me the following error

  "The disk structure is damaged and inaccessible.

  and clues to solve this problem
  I tried the following

  Windows XP reformat failed "unable to complete format.
  Windows XP Diskcheck utility

  Hello

  Start the console Windows RUN and type--> cmd
  Then start the chkdsk disk diagnostic application
  Check if this application can find some errors on the HARD drive.
  The chkdsk /F command will correct the errors on the disk

• Corrupt Windows file. "the file of the directory g:\system information\lightningsand.cfd volume" is damaged and unreadable. My computer does not display a G drive. My computer will boot even after I get this error message.

  The problem started after I installed Norton 360. I have not installed new hardware.

  I'm not biased. I'm not an advocate for the Member States. I have been involved in the MS newsgroups since 2003 and have seen what Norton (McAfee) and can do. Especially for an e-mail client.

  I saw, too, what MS has produced over the years and don't like a lot of their programs. I feel, however, that they got the right MOUSE. It is not a resource hog like Norton is a thing. (BTW. IMHO, Norton was a great AV program until Peter Norton sold the company to Symantec).

  I saw many problems corrected over the years with the removal of Norton. The most common problem people have when vendors group with their Norton software free trials. Once enabled, run that the removal tool is a must if the user wishes to use a different AV program

  Note the declaration of the OP.

  If you have spent a lot of time on the Norton forum and believe my advice to be bad, why not offer the OP is something that you think might be useful rather than criticizing me.

• The file or directory to _ is damaged and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility.

  Since a few days ago, I started having these notifications tray for two specific instant messaging programs, I am running on a daily basis:

  

  

  There is no problem at all with the two programs - they run flawlessly, as they have always done.

  but I have no idea what causes these notifications to pop up - something must be wrong

  So I was trying to run Chkdsk, the message said, opening cmd as administrator, then "chkdsk /f c:" but then I get this error:

  

  I did restart and wait that chkdsk is running just after start-up but then:

  

  How this can be resolved without having to reinstall windows?

  If you have the system file corruption, you are probably at the end of the rope - so to speak.  Try to rerun the SFC.  Sometimes a 2nd or even 3rd run corrects corruption.

  Try the system restore.  It can solve your problem if she wasn't there too long.  Usually, it is best to do the restore from SafeMode (F8 at startup)

  Much more likely, you will need to re - build.  Choice:

  1 restore the partition from the factory

  2. any re - install a Win7 disc

  3. implement non-destructive install

  If I were in your shoes, I would like to re - install Windows 7.  It's a tedious process - may 6 to 12 hours passed depending on the speed of your Internet connection and your computer, and it has the amount of memory.  Such a process will lead you to a purely clean and absolutely pristine system that will have significantly improved performance.

  First back up your data, but do something.  Windows Easy Transfer can create a file for a later transfer. For this, use a large external hard drive.

  Now find the software tester training from the manufacturer of your hard drive.  Run three tests to ensure you have a reliable hard drive before starting this process.  It may take a few hours, but I wouldn't do that until this, and you're confident.  If necessary, replace the hard drive - not a particularly expensive or difficult process.

  Choice 1: If your computer came with a factory restore partition, restore that.  Learn how to access the factory restore partition.  It is likely to be found using F8 during the startup of the existing system.

  According to what you have purchased, you must then many UN-installing of unwanted programs.  Don't let no one antivirus or internet security system installs until you are at the end of this process - the last thing you do.  Also do not put a password on your computer until you have completely finished.  If the antivirus or Internet security is installed in this choice 1, uninstall it.  Now start Windows Update, but first change so that it will give you all the updates Microsoft, not only Windows ones. There are probably hundreds of them and it will take hours, but you don't have to watch it.  There will be several rounds of updates.  Keep the new verification updated to what there not.

  Now, install your applications, but only the most immutable stable, for example Microsoft Office.  You can have a few more rounds of updates after that.  Do a Defrag.  No data yet.

  Then take a step that almost nobody does, but if you are already in a similar situation, even once, you'll thank yourself for making.  Create a system image using the Maintenance until the restoration.  Use of the DVD - from 2 to 4.  It will take nearly an hour, but when you are finished, you will have a DVD set that can be used to restore the system to this account or a new drive is precisely what you have so far.  While you're at home spend 5 minutes and create a CD repair system Windows7.

  Of course, after that, you can add your volatile applications such as Flash Player, etc..  Then run Windows Easy Transfer to retrieve all your data and settings.  It's positively amazing how it works, you will find that you won't see a difference with before except that it will be incredibly faster.

  Choice 2: Fact, I prefer this option. Use an original DVD of Microsoft Windows 7, preferably Service Pack 1. It can be any DVD of Windows 7 to the same variety of product - for example the publishing house and 32 or 64 bit depending on your system.   Make sure you have the key of Activation for Microsoft Windows written down.   The only downside to this option is that it is possible but not likely that you might have to find a driver.  This doesn't happen often because even the drivers that the Windows 7 installation process itself does not, will be probably provided in your first pass of Windows Update. Once you get the Windows installation, everything above will be the same.

  Choice 3:  Follow this link for a good description of how to do

  http://WindowsSecrets.com/top-story/WIN7S-no-reformat-nondestructive-reinstall/   This choice will require a lot of time to Windows updates as well.

  Notes:

  I will not work on a computer with ANY Internet security product in this regard.  Everything you want or need is an antivirus product.  The other stuff that is part of their packages don't you will that cause problems.

  Intel has a utility to update driver (assuming that yours is Intel based) which is absolutely excellent.

  You don't need a disc burner program.  Windows had built.

  After you're done create a restore point.
