Ever since I flashed my Asus P5N32-SLI Premium Edition motherboard's bios I keep getting the following air message popping up off and on. "Registry Hive"
It's odd to have this happen just over a bios flash to the motherboard. I've attached a picture of the exact error message to better help resolve the problem.
What is the ultimate solution to fixing this problem so it will go away?

Check your hard drives. chkdsk /f /v c: from command prompt, reboot.

If that doesn't help, reflash the new BIOS. And if that doesn't help, reflash the old one.

Last resort would be to do a repair of your software registry hive. However, that will cause you to lose a lot of settings and you'll need to reinstall a lot of stuff.

Hey rewt, I followed your instructions on the command prompt. All I did was enter the following chkdsk next it starting running and asks me to do /f fix

The command I recommended you use was in bold above. Not just chkdsk, all of it.

Yes that was it.

After that, reboot your computer and Windows will check your c: drive for errors. If it finds any file system errors it should correct them automatically.
