irritating TortoiseSVN error - file or directory is corrupted and chkdsk at boot

Question

Can't move 'D:\Documents\Websites\blah.svn\tmp\entries' to 'D:\ ... .svn\entries': The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.

Any thoughts on what would cause this? This usually happens when trying to commit a large number of new files. Sometimes an update fixes it but most of the time I have to delete the offending directory, re-download it, and attempt to add or update it again.

EDIT: it seems my pc always wanting to chkdsk as boot is related.
