HDD failure for winxp will prompt a scandisk. It's likely windows was corrupted..Originally posted by YI:urgh.. a bit extreme.. recommended only as a last resort. so f8 doesn't work? maybe it is a sign of harddisk failure.. how old is it?
quite unlikely.. the problem is with the dll.. need to find out which program uses that file. but first you need to up the os. after which you may uninstall the conflicting software or simply remove the link from the registry. it all depends on the nature of the problem.Originally posted by ditzy:Control Panel

When winxp starts up, it'll randomly check the disk integrity.Originally posted by YI:perhaps in its early stages.. a bad sector?
true... a corrupted dll file had a higher chance above all others.Originally posted by Otingocni:When winxp starts up, it'll randomly check the disk integrity.
Unlikely to be a bad sector, or corrupted fat. It's very likely to be corrupted dll only.
And for further information how that can occur, if bismarck's winxp was original, he could call ms hotline for details. They are the professionals, I am just some wannabe.
