Geoff - Your organization needs to insist that, for efficient running of the
        organization, the PC administrators make some effort to administer
the systems for which they are responsible.  A "root directory" error message
is something they should realize to be ominous, just by virtue of its text,
and something they should do some basic disk checking for.  In particular,
they should know how to look up Windows return codes and respond appropriately.

1005:  The volume does not contain a recognized file system.
       Verify that all required file system drivers are loaded and that the
       volume is not corrupted.
