Have you tried running SFC in safe mode? Restart your Computer, tap F8 until
the startup options appear, select Safe Mode.

The problem is in your primary hard disk drive partition (usually C:) and the
solution is to check this partition for errors: open Computer, right-click on
this partition (local disk), click Properties, click the Tools tab, click
Check Now, schedule a disk check for the next time your computer starts,
restart your computer and let CHKDSK run its course. After your computer
retstarts you should have no problem running SFC /SCANNOW succesfully.
