Did scandisk the other day WinME and error reported as fixed OK.

Have had no problems as file was repaired and does not seem to be important anyway.

File was - FSInfoSector.

For interest, does anyone no what it is?

FS = File System
Info = Information
Sector = place for data on a disk

The FSInfoSector problem is a side affect of your system crashing, but will not be causing it.

It stores stuff like how much free space there is on your drive, and when your system crashes windows didn't have a chance to update it.


My suggestion would be to boot into safe mode and run MSCONFIG (Start-Run).

Goto the startup tab and uncheck everything then restart.

Then run MSCONFIG from normal mode and start re-checking entries until you find the problem.


Running Adaware (available from www.lavasoft.de) on you system will remove any spyware you has installed itself on your system which could be causing the problem.
