Instead of running chkdsk /f run chkdsk /r

[Advertisements]

I've might of used /f and /r both in the past. The F fixes errors the R recovers data or attempts. Ok I take it either will need to be done at startup. I will check back with ya after its done.

I forgot the straight chkdsk /r is typically super quick. It was done pretty quick said disk was clean. Ya normally I go threw and select the hard drive and both options under Error-checking. But ya disk clean.

Actually chkdsk /r usually takes longer to do because it is 5 stages where the /f is only 3 stages that it checks.

[cmislin]

Well those 3 stages must of been super quick because it was about 30 seconds if that.

Sorry it has been so long on my response. Was in the hospital for the last 4 days. Have you checked into a bios upgrade for your motherboard?

[cmislin]

Its ok and no I haven't. I'm not sure how that actually works I can tell ya my MB info is MSI g41m-e43 / g41m-p33 model number ms-7592

[rshaffer61]

Looks like there is a update available HERE but make sure you understand how to do this before attempting.

[cmislin]

whats the typical way to install these? Because I'm really not sure the best way. I know I never been able to get a usb device to read during bootup to make it easier. Also I hope your doing better.

The last time I updated a bios was when floppy disks were still being used. I suspect you can do it making a bootable cd and boot to it. Some newer boards will actually allow you to do a in place update from within windows. According to MSI's site HERE your mother has the live update option.

[cmislin]

So that means what? Like DL install and follow prompts or what? Or is it all done in bios? Also I don't have live update installed. Can I get it off that site as well?

Scroll down the list till you see the below. This is the Live update program.

[cmislin]

I take it I can run that and it will install the bios update or get it ready to install and then reboot and ok?

[rshaffer61]

It should install the new bios software but I want to warn you if it has the option to backup the existing bios then please back it up. If something goes wrong you will need that to get your system back up and running.
