squid13--What are you doing when this happens? Does this KB have any relationship to what you are doing?
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;971905
This is what EventID says:
"The default transaction resource manager on volume <drive letter> encountered a non-retryable error and could not start. The data contains the error code."
One Google source translates that as: "Unable to start the standard resource handler for transactions on volume C: due to an error."
Here is a reference that claims to be a fix--at least for Vista. It might work in Win7 also.

Here is a KB article:

That KB seems to be for Raid and I'm not using raid. Welshjim where is that reference, you forgot to put it in your response. While I'm at it I have this greyed out driver in plug and play, Fs_Rec and from what I can tell through searches in system 32 I don't have this system on my computer and from what I've read it should be there. If I did a repair with the disk would that install it? Windows 7 64 bit.

I just checked my wifes computer Windows 7 SP1 and it doesn't have Fs_Rec sys on it either.

FWIW, here's a screencap of what I see here on a laptop running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit with SP1:

Should I have the Fs_Rec system on these computers cause as far as I can tell it's not there. How did you go about getting that read out?

squid13--The reference in my last post is the reference from EventID. (Sorry to have mixed up the order in my post.) But you say you do not use RAID.
EventID is EventID.net.

"What are you doing when this (Event Viewer errors) happens?"

Most of the time I'm just surfing through the web reading tech forums trying to get educated or news sites.

Ok, I get this Ntfs problem when I start the computer or do a restart, that's when it shows. It only does it then.

Got to a C:\> prompt and typed:
dir fs_rec.sys /a /s

I ran that and it came back OK. The file is in the system 32 driver folder. Thank you for that. My problem is I get that Ntfs event 137 every time I boot or restart and that's the only time I get it and I can't figure out what's causing it.

I'm afraid I don't have a clue. Even did a Google search using EventRecordID 32117 -squid13 and didn't get squat.

squid13--Have you looked in System Configuration Utility (msconfig) to see what is starting at boot? Maybe you will see something you do not need at boot and deleting it will get rid of the message.
Concerning Fs_Rec have you tried to update that driver?

No I haven't looked in misconfig yet, good idea. As far as the fs_rec is concerned it was grayed out, what ever was using it is not installed anymore so I uninstalled it. The file size in my system 32 is the right size according to this http://www.thefiledb.com/filedatabas...c.sys-id24256/ so I'm not going to worry about it anymore. The computer is running good.
