Welcome to windrivers djspitfire! This message generally results from a corrupted file reference. Clear your temp files (you can see where they are by going to system properties/advanced/environment variables - there will be different directories listed for the user and system) and internet cache, then run chkdsk /f.
sorry but how do i get to system properties i dotn understand ur instructions
Go to control panel. Double click "System". Select the advanced tab. Click the button labeled "Environment Variables". The top half of the window will give you the temp directory for user files. The bottom half will give you the temp directory for system files (you will have to scroll down the list).Quote:

Sorry Fot The Inconveniance
The list gives you the locations of the temp files, make a note of them.
Then using explorer find those temp files, open them, click edit from the top menu, click select all, all the files will go blue. Now hit the delete button on your keyboard, click yes to delete them, then click yes to any further queries it makes about deleting certain types of files.
When you have found and deleted all the temp files, restart your computer using start, shutdown, click on restart and ok.
hi i have tryed to do what you have said and have deleted some files in the temp folders and some temp folders but i am still getting the error message :(
