Exception: file_other: file_name: F:\OMFI Media files/tape4? at DVinfo.net

Im using Avid Xpress Pro and have been for a month or so with no problems with my project.
Only to find now, that this error message comes up when I try to play a few of my clips.

Exception: file_other: file_name: U:\OMFI Media files\tape3 etc..

From research on the net, I have gathered that these files have become corrupted somehow and may need to re-capture. Can anyone verify this?

The strangest and most worrying problem regarding this is once these clips are on my timeline in a sequence, and then I delete them individually the problem then exports itself onto the previous clip in the timeline, which didn’t have a problem before.
So I am deleting the error clip, for the problem to just go on to the other clip before that and so on. I also notice that even when theres no clip in the timeline, the black space where the clip used to be has problems playing also. Like a virus or somthing, though its unlilky my external hardrive has caught one.

Has anyone experienced this before?

Any help greatly appreciated
Thanks

(I have already deleting the database files for them to re-search my media)
