New user, an autist from the world of Vikings.

I registered here because I faced Chkdsk errors on a Win 7 machine lately, and then at same time found some corruption in the component store, that only sfcfix.exe by niemiro seem be capable to repair, in an easy way.

It turned out however I could handle and fix this problem myself, using information available here, so I am now not anymore in need right now, creating my own thread for help.
Apparrently Avast Antivirus made SURT reporting errors, every time it was installed on this machine. and well... turned out an old reported problem as well. Their software somehow mess me frequent into unnecessary and hard solving pc quirks. Those bastards..:-)

I do not for time being plan to become active here, but I appreciate all the very very well made information available here. I see a lot interest stuff and tutorials across this forum. You are cool!
I've sent a small donation today to support the site instead.

You should know. Even you this time didn't directly helped a person in a thread, you do still help and help people learn out there. Thanks!

regards,
Michael
 
Glad to hear Sysnative was able to help you! :-)

Welcome to Sysnative Michael.
 
Hi Michael, thank you so much for your kind comments :) It's always nice to hear when the work we do is appreciated and helpful. I'm very happy you managed to fix your computer (and hopefully learned a few new interesting things along the way too!).

Feel free to come back anytime, you'd be more than welcome.

^^^This^^^ and welcome to Sysnative.

BTW, chkdsk errors could just be a one-off event, perhaps caused by a power glitch during a write. But chkdsk errors might suggest the drive is looking at the exit door. Make sure you have a current backup of your files, and if me, I would run chkdsk /r on the drive a couple times over the next couple weeks. If no new errors, great. But if more errors are found, start looking around for a replacement drive.
 
Welcome to Sysnative Forums.

My sister and her husband just spent 3 years in Denmark related to their work.

They wanted to bring their cars over, but found out they would have to pay a 160% tax! So they bought one there.
 
Thanks everyone for leaving a message here. I myself have a half brother with his family, who lived a year in 2008, in Colorado. To my knowledge, they rented cars to travel around the states.

Well it's likely to be I have been facing the first thing what you mention. It happen on this same machine, it will fail periodically to go into sleep mode correctly, and in rare cases also involving waking. And I had this problem prior up to the necessary chkdsk.
Long intensive troubleshooting however did me no good so far, and it remains a really mystery what the hell is wrong here.
It however isn't a huge issue for me, and for the most seems harmless. But a one time write failure occurred with failed sleep mode, that might very well explain things to me.

I already finished a complete backup and more chkdsk scans of all installed disks, and it all here looks fine now.
I also got these small cool programs CrystalDiskInfo and WD Data Lifeguard (relevant to WD drives) to check disk health. A SSD (was affected) and some HDD's do have several years behind, but they all currently flagged as good.
