I have Windows XP home edition and the past two or three weeks, the computer has been acting strangely. It kept rebooting and then checking the disk. The message I received was that the allocation units weren't valid. I checked on these forums and learned to uncheck the automatically restart so the blue screen I got today said:

Stop: 0x0000008e (0xc0000005), 0xf73e1013, 0xf395e8e8, 0x00000000
ks.sys - address f73e1013 base at f73d9000, datestamp 3d6de5c4

When it checked the disk, it now says: system volume information/ - restore{97b65082-c358-4168-aa81-c8ba9ded16c3}/rp116/change.log.3 is crosslinked on allocation unit 1444059 Crosslink resolved by copying

Can anyone help me repair this. I haven't added any new hardware or drivers to the computer other than the Windows update which I did after I started this problem.

Thank you
 
A stop error usually means Corrupt operating sytem files. Did you scan for Virus's?

Stop: 0x0000008e (0xc0000005), 0xf73e1013, 0xf395e8e8, 0x00000000

Search for "0x0000008e" on TechNet, and see what this error means.
allocation units weren't valid <----Opr Sys files
Also; I just downloaded and ran last night: "Spybot--Search and Destroy", I was Shocked to find 155 Spyware placed files on a new 1 month old HP PC I got for christmas. the bad news is it cost $30.00, the good news it it cleans out unwanted Files, cookies, checks your memory. I will probably run it once a month.
Hope this does it for you.
Go to it dtink, and let me know how it goes,

Hi Jess. Yes, I have scanned for viruses. I have NOrton Anti-virus. I also have Spy Bot and have done that also. I have checked all over the Knowledge base and can't find anything to help me. I will go to the site you gave. Thank you.
