Re: "cannot open volume for direct access" - error message re chkdsk
I would try a system restore first. If you can't go back far enough to fix the problem, try running System File Check. If sfc detects corrupt system files and cannot repair them, at least it will identify the corrupt files in CBS.log. You can then access good system files from your Vista Install DVD (see tutorial on this website) to copy to your OS to replace the corrupt files. I have had Vista Updates corrupt my autochk.exe system file and my McAfee Security Center. |
