Quick overview:

A critical bug has not been fixed in the final version of Windows 7. [By Gerrit Grunwald]

According to Ryan Price the error can be reproduced very easily via the command line. As soon as you start the tool "CHKDSK" in conjunction with the parameter "/r" (automatic error repair) and starts a scan of all partitions, you can observe in the Task Manager how the CHKDSK occupies more and more memory and ultimately causes Windows to crash.
