From: MowGreen on
Steve,

Did you try a Clean boot and then run CheckSUR ?
Was the release of CheckSUR that you downloaded released on Sept. 22nd
and for *Vista x64* ?

If yes, suggest you try running sfc /scannow from an Elevated Command
Prompt ( Click the Start orb; in the Start Search field type in
cmd
*Right* click cmd.exe under Programs and choose 'Run as administrator'
Follow the UAC prompt and then click Continue )
At the prompt type in the below and then press Enter

sfc /scannow

Does the System File Checker run ?
If yes, what did it report ?

File Checker
