Look in Event Viewer in the System section to see if Windows has detected any I/O errors (input/output).
Start->Settings->Control Panel and double click on Administrative Tools and select Event Viewer.

Go to start>run and type in CMD
On the black and white command window that opens, type
chkdsk C: /F
(or whatever drive letter, but you must include a colon after the letter, and don't forget to add /F to the end)
This will check and attempt to repair any errors on the drive. If you decide to do it on your c drive. It will tell you that the drive needs to dismount or something like that, and will ask if you want it to complete the next time you restart. Select yes, and then restart, and windows will check the C: drive.
