SFC unable to fix--what next?

I got the message below when I ran the SFC /scannow as admin. What
happens next? Do the files get fixed later, are they marked as bad and
left alone or what.

"Windows resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix
some of them."

Running a system repair did nothing, and when I run SFC now it says no
problems found.

The reason I ask is Acronis True Image Home 2009 seems to crash whenever
I try to get it to restore a backup it created. Don't know why it is
crashing, but even another Vista install running the software locks up
when trying to restore backups made with this system.

Thanks,
Clark

problems it was due to iffy memory
OK, but the software seems to work on a fresh Vista install. I have to
believe something is being backed up that causes Acronis to crash when
accessing it for a restore operation. If I access the backups made on
the current install from the new install, Acronis also crashes but does
not when accessing backups made on the new install.

There must be something on my current install causing the problem. One
install in activated, the bad one, and one is not yet. I sure hope
Acronis is not having problems because of the activation!

I did have SP2 installed for one day, so it might have messed things up.

Looks like I found the problem, an install and removal of Vista SP2
Beta. Something must have gotten corrupted, so I decided to load the
SP2 RC and everything cleared up.
