I've seen this error symptom previously on PC systems where I had access to adequate tools (Norton) to perform the recovery.

An similar error was reported earlier this week by Jungan and akheron:

Unfortunately no fix on the Ax is known - to me, that is .... Sorry !
Thanks for your reply Zaniax. The problem took care of itself- when my ax suddenly hard reset itself! I erased all the image and text files which were obviously only temp internet files by sorting them by file type. After I did that- bam. Hard reset.

Luckily I had a pretty recent back up to restore to. I checked the directory after the restore and all that junk is gone! :approve:
