I have reviewed Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 819017
regarding this problem, and have removed all USB devices, Stopped the
WIA service, Completed thorough Antivirus, Spyware and System checks,
All hard drives have been checked, scanned and defragged but the
problem still persists. Has anyone had any luck fixing this problem?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
 
A corrupted file that needs to be indexed can cause this. Run chkdsk C: (or
any other drive/partition) with the /F option to try to repair the file
system of the drive in question

Chkdsk recognises there is a problem and shedules chkdsk to repair upon
startup but when it has restarted and scanned the problem still exists.
Any ideas?
