Hello
Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.
FAT_FILE_SYSTEM This indicates a problem in the FAT file system.
The cause may be a corrupted disk. Either corruption in the file system or bad blocks (sectors) on the disk can cause this error. Corrupted SCSI and IDE drivers can also adversely affect the system's ability to read and write to the disk, causing errors.
Another possible cause is exhaustion of nonpaged pool memory. This error can stop the system if nonpaged pool memory is completely exhausted. However, during the indexing process, another kernel-mode driver that requires nonpaged pool memory can also trigger this error if the amount of available nonpaged pool memory is very low.
Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve this issue:
Run CHKDSK: This tool checks for and repairs disk errors. Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run:
chkdsk /f /r
You’ll need to restart your computer for the scan to complete.
Update Drivers: Ensure all your drivers are up to date, especially SCSI and IDE drivers. You can do this through Device Manager.
Check for Faulty Hardware: Disconnect any new hardware to see if the error persists. If it does, test each piece of hardware individually.
Run System File Checker: This tool scans for and repairs corrupted system files. In Command Prompt, run:
sfc /scannow
Check Event Viewer: Look for error messages related to SCSI, FASTFAT, or Autochk in the Event Viewer to identify the problematic device or driver.
