Maybe the solution is easy, but it simply doesn't work!! I have the same problem
and so far I was unable to find ANY solution that would permanently fix it. The corruption
return after every reboot ALWAYS on the system volume, no matter is the system is
installed on as C: partition or X: partition. some times the corruption exists also
on other data partitions, but those can be fixed by chkdsk /f, however the system
partition once fixed becomes corrupted right after the system boot up.... that's
ridiculous!
I found this USN journal log file and MFT BITMAP corruption issue to exist on every
Windows XP SP2 Pro computer in my company (windows 2000/2003 domain environment),
as well as on my standalone home desktop (also Pro SP2)... at the same time we have
a dozen of windows 2000 SP4 workstations at work and none of them show those errors
on NTFS volumes.
The real question is if those errors are real ones or they are simply misidentified
by "over-reacting" XP's chkdsk. Please keep in mind that 2000's chkdsk do not find
those errors, only XP's have this issue... It is very possible that you are all chasing
a dead horse as someone stated on the other forum ... as per M$ - this error can
be safely ignored - don't ya wonder why? Probably the XP's chkdsk contains a bug
which they cannot fix.
I guess this problem with false corruption of NTFS system volume under Win XP will
stay unsolved no matter what you do until M$ releases a patch for that. So far I
think that this behaviour is by design.
Have a nice day or night folks! :)
