Something is corrupting your repository, but your on your own to find
the problem. From what I've read it's most likely a hardware or OS
problem, for example your filesystem may be corrupted. I had similar
issues some years ago with a virtualized Windows where for some reason
the filesystem broke two times in one weak and the only solution was
to create a new file system and restore into this from backup. Have a
look at your event viewer, do checkdisk, maybe even memory tests, you
can even try to monitor disk access with Process Monitor form
Sysinternals to see if something occurs.

But first of all I would implement a good backup process, e.g. using
svnsync and hooks or something similar, as it doesn't sound you are
prepared for loss of revision files.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
