    So every time I turn on my gateway 6860fx, I get this weird error.
    After the windows vista loading screen, a gateway window pops up saying windows was unable to start and that it will repair the problem. It repairs a corrupt atapi.sys file and then automatically restarts. All is then well.
    What is causing this, and how can I permanently fix it?
