I'm running xp home sp2 on a 4 year old Barracuda ATA IV model ST340016A. Everything is up to date.
After looking in the event viewer in admin tools I noticed that there were errors being generated under disk and ntfs at every startup....
The Disk error shows this:
The device, \Device\Harddisk0\D, has a bad block.

The ntfs error shows this:
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume C:.

I scheduled chkdsk to run autochk with /f and /r on next startup and it ran fine, but the damn thing never gives you enough time to read if it fixed anything. The event viewer shows the errors are still occuring and now autochk runs at every startup. Fsutil and chkntfs both reported my drive as dirty. Since I can't make out what autochk says, I do chkdsk via recovery console with /r set and it says that there were errors which it repaired. The disk and ntfs events are still going on though and the volume's dirty bit is still set which is causing Autochk to run on every startup . A new warning event showed up saying an error was detected during a paging operation, so I clear the page file and which for some reason stopped the ntfs event, but the disk event didn't cease. As of now, I have set chkntfs /x c: to bypass autochk.
Any ideas?
