Benefits of NTFS are old news. So old, I've forgotten most of it. I've been using NTFS since around 1994.
Much more reliable. Transaction database, log files, etc. Its much more likely to completely recover on its own from a system crash, power failure.

Then re-install and use the NTFS file system to avoid having this type of problem in the future... Seriously, if chkdsk doesn't fix the problem, you may be stuck rebuilding the machine...
