So, I was looking through the system event logs of a 2008R2 SP1 server today. And, I found some error 57 several times followed by error 137. This pattern repeated itself every five seconds. The server was experiencing no problems other than this repeating error message. What could it be?
Turns out that this error is documented as appearing in more than 2008R2. Specifically, it can happen with Vista, Windows 7, and with 2008 release candidate one. The underlying cause is a corrupted file, which can be easily reset. To resolve the issue, follow these procedures:
- Open a command prompt:
- Login to the machine experiencing the error
- Run the DOS command prompt with administrative privileges
- Run a reset command:
- At the DOS prompt: fsutil resource setautoreset true c:\
- Validate that the command completes successfully
- Close the DOS prompt: exit
- Reboot the machine:
- From the start menu, run shutdown | restart
(Note: if this option is not available, you can run in the DOS prompt: shutdown -r)
- From the start menu, run shutdown | restart
Once the machine restarts, the error should no longer happen. You can open Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Event Viewer | System to validate that the error is no longer getting logged. Here is a good article for further information:

Hi,
Today, I suddenly found a new error in my log. The event id is 137 and
source is NTFS. A translation of the message would be something like this:
«Unable to start the standard resource handler for transactions on volume C:
due to an error.»
From log:
— <Event xmlns=»http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event»>
— <System>
<Provider Name=»Ntfs» />

After some research, I found the solution here:

This error was apparently stopping Windows Update and System Restore.
As this seems to have happened with others before, it’s strange that nothing
can be found on MS KB.

External HD ?? This error usually suggests that either the HD has not been formatted properly or it is in a FAT 32 scenario and you are installing NTFS volumes on to it

Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged.After purchase the ext HD was formatted in FAT 32. I used it that way for a short while, until I realized I could not save large files (4 Gb).
At that point I reformatted to NFTS and reloaded the previous files.
From there on, I had problems with infinite time to tead end write.
What can I do now ? Shloud I for example go back to FAT 32 ?
Thank you
Hallo, I have the same issue also:

My settings are:
Primo:
7168MB (automatically bei Primo Ramdisk Professional 5.6.0), SCSI disk, Drive Letter R:\, DMM Compact, NTFS, default cluster size (4KB), Volume label RAMDISK, associated image file C:\PR-Image-R.vdf (on SSD, new created, saved one time, contains not the paging file), Smart Image, load only
Microsoft:
— Windows memory dumping is OFF
— Windows user rights @default on ramdisk: authenticated users=modify; SYSTEM=full; Admins=full; Users=read&execute; Owner is SYSTEM
— recycle bin and system restore for ramdisk are OFF
System: Windows 7 HP SP1, x64, 16 GB RAM, SSD, HD
The error orrcurs always if the paging file set to the ramdisk and then on every system shutdown.
It appears regardless of whether the following settings are ON or OFF:
Primo:
— disable NTFS indexing service
— create TEMP folder automatically
Microsoft:
— paging file only on ramdisk or second on primary system disk (SSD)
— fixed or dynamic values for paging file size
— enabled or disabled Windows write caching for the ramdisk
Any other ideas to fixing this?
