hello do a chkdsk /f r ::: First, boot the computer into safe mode with command prompt. To do this, start the computer, and immediately begin pressing the F8 key at one second intervals. You may have to press several times until the boot menu comes up. Use your arrow keys to choose Safe Mode with Command Prompt and press enter. The computer will begin booting. Lots of weird looking white text will scroll by and then the computer will ask you to login or give you a box saying safe mode is running, etc. Click Ok to finish loading. A black command window will appear with a c: prompt. At that c: prompt, type chkdsk c:/f /r and press enter. Check disk will start to run but then it will say: Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N) Type Y for yes, and press enter. Then reboot the computer into normal mode. Chkdsk will start when Windows begins loading again. Let all 5 phases run and don't use or turn off the computer. (The chkdsk process may take an hour or more to finish.) Chkdsk finds any corrupted files that are causing the problem and fixes them. Read the results of each phase as it finishes. During the final phase, it will notify you if it finds any corrupted files. When the Check Disk is done, it will finish loading Windows.

Hi Robert0305, 1. What is the complete error message?2. Did you make any changes before the issue started? This usually happens if the "Task Scheduler" service is disabled or stopped. To check the status of this service, try these steps.1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc and hit enter.2. From the list of items, double click on Task Scheduler service, make sure the startup type is Automatic and the service is started. 3. Start Disk Defragmenter tool and check the result. If the issue persists, restore the computer to an earlier time to fix this issue. To restore the computer to an earlier time, check the steps mentioned in this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306084 Check these links "To Optimize Windows XP for better performance": http://www.microsoft.com/athome/setup/optimize.aspxhttp://www.microsoft.com/atwork/maintenance/speed.aspx Hope this helps.
