If it worked previously try System Restore to a point or points if you need
to where it was working. You can go back up to 90 days. Go to:
Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore
Additionally you should try SFC or System File Checker. Type sfc /scannow
in the run box. Here are screenshots of it running. You can go to
eventvwr.msc in the run box and click on System to make sure that it ran
successfully using the down arrow to go to Windows File Protection as the
source. www.updatexp.com/scannow-sfc.html
