C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\i386\driver.cab\[all files] are corrupt

I am running a virus scanner that is reporting that C:\WINDOWS\Driver
Cache\i386\driver.cab and all its file in it are corrupt. Can I extract a
file from the Windows disc or will scandisc correct it?

Running SFC did not help. The following are the files corrupted.
alphebetical from -
11/16/2006 6:59:43 AM File: C:\WINDOWS\Driver
Cache\i386\driver.cab\es198x.sys corrupted
\i386\driver.cab\xxwh1hlp.hlp corrupted

to
11/16/2006 6:59:50 AM File: C:\WINDOWS\Driver
Cache\i386\driver.cab\zlogic.cyz corrupted

Full list of corrupted files too large to post here. Is this a Windows
driver. Can I tell which device this driver is for?

The scanner that detected this is Kaspersky anti virus.

I am reading the pages you posted. I just don't yet understand it. I ran
the SFC, put the windows XP system disc in and it ran something. But in the
end didn't correct anything.
