    Hello Forum:

    I am looking for suggestions about how to deal with an issue with my disk drive.

    I have a Windows 7, home premium, service pack 1, system with a Hitachi disk HDS721064.

    For the past several weeks, Windows has been logging an 'event 55' which says 'The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume HP.' I run chkdsk and generally see another 'event 55' being logged within the next day. The Microsoft website which the event viewer takes me to is not particularly helpful.

    Does anyone have any experience with this type of issue or any suggestions?

    Thank you very much.
