Hoping someone can give me some advice about this, search pulled up an old thread that didn't say much.
puter took a long time to boot the other night, after a bit search in the Event Logs i found repeated messages as per the thread title. i fired up the checkdisc thingy, rebooted, and off it went. there was pretty much nothing in the scan except it said it had repaired bad clusters in bootstat.dat. booted okay the last couple times, no sign of an event about Bad Sectors (i believe checkdisc flags bad bits so they don't get used again..?) but tonight, long boot and more of the same messages.
I've scanned the boot area etc w/ NOD (to put my mind at rest, some tw@ sold me a counterfeit disc, i just wanted to make sure nothing nasty had been left behind) but nothing came up.
any thoughts?
TIA
