winlogon.exe corrupt file issue...can't run chkdsk
This might be long as I've trying to research this on my own for a few
days now.
I got this error message a few days ago saying that my file or
directory for windows/cursors was corrupt or unreadable. Please run
chkdsk utility. The computer still boots into windows with no apparent
issue and I can still use the comptuer completely without problems. The
issue I'm having is that it wants me to run chkdsk. It tells me chkdsk
cannot run and that I need to rerun it on start up. When I restart the
computer after scheduling it to run on startup, the computer starts and
does nothing. It goes into the welcome screen after I have signed into
my profile and hangs there. I've left it as long as 2 hours with no
change. To make it stop, I manually shut the computer off which I don't
think is the best way to go about handling this! I've tried using the
"cmd" prompt and have gotten the same thing. I also have the recovery
discs that came with the computer from ASUS for "windows vista recovery
media for windows vista products 64 bit". I have read through some of
the threads here looking for info and it all points to me needing to
repair windows, but can't find that prompt anywhere. I can't get the
disc to load either.
What do I do at this point?
If it helps, I have an ASUS notebook N80Vb series with Intel Core 2Duo
CPU . My system type is 64bit with windows vista home
premium. I do only have service pack 1.
What do I do at this point? What caused this?
