I had that volsnap error.
I just looked in windows/system event log. I did a ctrl-l find and I only see a chkdsk error from June, for another drive.
Hmm. I didn't know that chkdsk made a log. I don't see it. Can you tell me how to find it?
Oh, in application.
The only chkdsk log of my drive C is dated in June.
I used the tweaking.com tool and I have logs from that somewhere.

Shane:
The chkdsk would have to be ran before windows boots because the drive is in use and the scan can take a while since it is checking the sectors as well.
Then when it is done it will put a entry into the event viewer

Did you do the chkdsk c: /r and it asked you to reboot and the scan ran before windows loaded?

Steevo:
I ran chkdsk again just now and here is the result:
I did not use the /r

Steevo:
The two restore points I manually created on Saturday 8/8 are still there.
Woo hoo.
Shane:
When you have the time and dont need the system run the chkdsk with the /r
That will make it 5 stages instead of the 3. And will take a while, so do it when you dont need the system and then post the results of it :-)
