CBS.log Problem

CosmicHIRO · Dec 30, 2012

Hi, I'm having a boot problem. I'm getting this black screen whenever I'm restarting. It started when I was playing my media player then a BSOD showed. I force restart-ed my computer, and there started my black screen prob.But I can still access my desktop. I just have to wait for like 10-15 mins, and then it will boot up normally. I just don't get my PC problem...

And then I searched it on the internet and got to read this thread saying I have to use a "sfc /scannow". This is what I got:Beginning verification phase of system scan.Verification 100% complete.Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.Details are included in the CBS.log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.logThis is the first time I've encountered this prob. I've seen a thread like this in this forum and it was solved... I'm hoping for a good response. Please help me, thanks. :')

Hello CosmicHIRO and welcome to Sysnative!

SFC has done a bit of work in the last run, so could you please reboot and run another sfc /scannow command please? Attach the CBS.log as before please. Then we can begin the fixing process :)

Sorry for a very late reply. . . I had problems after my reboot. T___T My laptop can't recognize the modem I'm using, that's why I can't connect to the internet.

So, here's my latest CBS.log. . . Hoping for the best.

Hi CosmicHIRO, welcome to Sysnative!

We have a tutorial available with common fixes for startup issues. I would suggest looking at the following two guides, in particular you may want to try running Startup Repair:

Hi Sir Will Watts...
I've already tried Startup Repair, and it didn't solved my issue. And apparently, it did not "unable" to boot. It just happens that it's abnormally slow.
But I might as well see it too. Thank you so much for your help! :)

Hi CosmicHIRO,

It's recommend running Startup Repair up to three times as it will attempt different fixes each time. The CBS log indicates there are corrupt files on the system that are used during start-up, likely the cause of the slow boot time. One of the experts will review your logs in more detail and provide a more specific fix, but in the meantime it may be worth running Startup Repair again to try and solve the problem.

CosmicHIRO · Dec 30, 2012

I'm quite scared at rebooting right now... Thinking it wouldn't show my desktop again. I've read the link you showed me, and there are fixes I haven't tried yet.
I will try the Startup Repair 3-times. Hoping for better results...
Again, thank you Sir.

Hello CosmicHero,

If you can boot your computer, I would like you to run a third, and hopefully final, sfc /scannow command then upload your CBS log please? It's very rare that a third SFC run is required, but new corruptions have appeared in your second log that weren't in the first one, so I would like to see how they pan out in the next log.

Thanks,

Tom

Will do, Sir Tom... And by the way, Happy New Year. :smile:

I live in the UK so I still have a few hours to go, but Happy New Year to you too! Hopefully 2013 brings you less CBS log problems

Good day.. I've already done what Mr. Will Watts told me to do; I Startup Repair-ed my laptop 3 times today. First startup repair detected a problem at disk, then the second and third one did not detected a prob. Still, it's booting abnormally slow. Here's my latest CBS.Log file. . . 2013, please be good to me.

P.S. I just noticed that everytime I do a "sfc /scannow", my log file gets bigger. (Before it was 7.07 MB, now it's 8.59 MB) Is this a problem, too?

Hello again :)

The logfile size increase is perfectly normal. The reason for this is that the logfile is not empted before every SFC run, so every time you run SFC, you add more data onto the end, but don't clear anything out. Your current logfile actually contains details of every SFC run to date.

I am now satisfied that the computer has, for the moment at least, stabilised enough to perform a fix, which is a good thing. One of us will have something posted to you by the end of the day.

Good Day Sirs. . . I've downloaded the files and followed your instructions, but there's this error I'm not familiar with. What should I do?

To fix this, please download and install this small package from Microsoft: Download Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) from Official Microsoft Download Center

Then install all Windows Updates, restarting your computer if necessary.

Now SFCFix should work again. Let me know if it does or doesn't.

Good luck!

Sir niemiro, I'm still having the problem even after installing it. I even checked it in my Programs and Features if it really installed correctly... What should I do?

Did any updates come through with Windows Update? I am wondering if they didn't install correctly.

Thank you!
