Hi Senko,

It looks as though we have found one of the culprits...your HDD's are 'chocking' under the strain of being 'bloated' with too much on them!

I recommend that you take "Mr Executive Software Diskeeper's" advice, and copy some of the excess onto CD's.

While you are 'clogged' up so much, the HDD cannot find the files when it needs them; hence, these 'error messages'.

You mentioned that you "UNINSTALLED AVG"...so what AV do you have on your machine at this moment?

If you have not got any I'd suggest that you disconnect from the Internet IMMEDIATELY until you can reinstall, say, AVG...as I am betting that its NOT the issue here.

Once you have freed up some space to allow the defragmentation to be done properly, report back with how the performance is, and if these errors are still occurring.

Kind Regards,
