    There's no sign in the CBS log that SFC actually ran at all.


    Please run the CheckSUR tool from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821
    (you'll need to look in the details for Method 2)

    Then zip the CheckSUR.log and attach it to your reply.

    The tool can take anywhere from 5 mins to a couple of hours to run (or 'Install') depending on how much it has to do, and may exit silently - it may appear to freeze for most of that time, but be patient.

    The CHECK SUR tool will not run in safe mode.

    I keep forgetting that

    OK ....

    Let's try an offline SFC scan.


    Your best option in that case is to run the CHKDSK and SFC in offline mode from a Recovery Environment boot.

    Reboot the computer, and tap the F8 key until you get the advanced boot menu up - one option should be 'Repair your computer'. Pick that one.

    Log into your normal account.
    You'll get a set of options - pick the Command Prompt one.
    At the command prompt, type DIR C:\
    - if we're lucky this will bring up a listing of your normal C: drive contents, including the Program Files folder(s) and the Windows folder.
    If not, try D:\ or E:\ (etc. until you get the right letter)
    then type the following command


    sfc /scannow /OFFBOOTDIR=<drive>:\ /OFFWINDIR=<drive>:\Windows

    where <drive> is the letter you found above.

    Wait for the command to complete. (make a note of the response!).

    Once it has, type EXIT and the pick the option to reboot.
