Thanks for the suggestion, and I had already done all that.  The disk does a
successful scan disk and defrag happily.

Hi Mark.

Firstly, it sounds like the folder structures referenced in the NTFS data 
stream have been corrupted.  Perform a check disk scan and ensure that both 
recover bad sectors and fix filing system errors automatically are checked. 
You can perform the disk check from the properties of the drive under the 
tools tab.

All the best, Ibrahim.
