system file currupt

i am not an IT guy.
i have new laptop it has vista business edition.
it says one of the system file is corrupt.. what i realised.. its probably
windows movie maker... Dont know exatly.
i am unable to run disc check for error........

it give following message...
windows has detected file system corruption on
SW_preload (C you must check the disk for errors
before it can be restored.

but every time schedule for disc check... its not correcting the error..
so i am unable to restore my system.

please help me........what should i do ??

Click once on the blue Vista start button and in the Start Search box
type Command Prompt. Right-click on the Command Prompt link that
appears and select Run as administrator. In the Command Prompt window
type SFC /SCANNOW and press the enter key on your keyboard.
This procedure will check the intergity of all Windows Vista system
files and repair them if possible.

My computer was unable to do error checking (chkdsk) and errors began to
accumulate. System restore did not go back far enough to restore this
function. System File Check identified a corrupt system file "autochk.exe"
that sfc was unable to repair. Instead of doing a clean install, I was able
to do an Upgrade Install that preserved my programs, devices, settings, etc.
(see John Barnett Windows MVP).

I wanted to replace my corrupt system file with a good one from the Vista
Install DVD without having to do a complete install, but was unable to do
this until now. From multiple sources including contributors on Vista
Communities, Windows IT Pro, How-To Geek, and Vistax64 Forum, I have put
together a tutorial on how to access files from your Vista Install DVD that
you can use to replace corrupt files in your OS. See the link below:

System File Check will identify corrupt system files that it can't repair
(see CBS.log). You can replace your corrupt files with good copies from the
Vista Install DVD. Many thanks to those who contributed to this solution.
