Thanks for the replies so far.

A little feedback: I ran checkisk /r but it never completed the check - got
as far as 75%.

Meanhile after disabling automatic restart I get the "Blue Screen opf Death"
with the following error message: "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME" and Technical
Information:

STOP: 0x000000ED (0x8A553030), 0xC0000006, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Does this still mean that I need the registry fix?

TIA

Andrew

Looks like you may need a new hard drive. See the following link:

http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/xprepair/thread/e36f8845-7856-4432-94b2-b8a69a33c407/

Go to the website of the maker of your hard drive and download their disk
checking utilities. Burn to CD. Boot from the utility CD and let it check the
drive. If it fails the test, replace the drive. Pray that you have a backup
image of your system. Let us know how the test goes.
