I haven't left you.
Trying to figure out the logs.
Sorry it's a bit slow. This is a stack of symptoms we haven't seen exactly before.

After it reboots, run the First Sequence again (without the /F parameter), and see if it still shows any File System Errors.First Sequence
Got to Start, Run and type cmd and hit <Enter>
When the command window comes up, type at the prompt :
chkdsk c:
hit <Enter> again.
Maximize the command window, and wait for the scan to finish. These scans can take quite a while.
Read the results carefully to see if it says that it found problems with your file system.

Second Sequence
IF it has found any errors with your file system, it needs to run a different sequence on reboot to do repairs.
(It can't repair the file system while Windows is running)
Go To Start, Run and type cmd
hit <Enter>
Type the black text here into the command window at the prompt:
chkdsk c: /F <==notice the /F, with one space between c: and /F
hit <Enter>
You will get a message that the volume is locked, with a request to do the repair on Reboot.

Then type exit to close the Command window.
Go to Start, Turn Off Computer and choose Reboot
It will scan again when it boots up and make the repairs as the first part of the reboot process.
