Windows 7 Checkdisk Scan Now Says Need To Format?
Oct 20, 2012
I have an external usb hard drive (2tb I think) that I ran Microsoft scan disk on I (right click the drive in my computer then tools etc.)Option to automatically fix errors was checked.Before the scan I could access the drive and files but was having problems with a certain program so I decided to run the scan. It said it found errors and fixed them from what I saw it didn't look like it recovered any corrupt data files but must of fixed something else.Now it says I need to format the drive I said NO but now it just hangs if I try to open the drive right click on the drive etc. What is the best way to save my data from getting lost?

I just bought a new WD 2TB ext. HD.Scanned for bad sectors (COMPUTER - PROPERTIES - TOOL - CHECK NOW): took me about 6hr, then I quick format it (of course very fast). Should I need to do normal format?In this case since I already scanned the HD, no need to do full format.

I wanted to delete a folder in my documents but it was giving me an error which I cannot remember exactly now, but after doing some research, most sites had suggested that I run a Chkdsk. My computer successfully completed the Chkdsk, but now my computer is in some sort of coma where it loads up fine, but after logging in, there is no text whatsoever on the screen. On top of this the start bar does not work and any explorer based functions are extremely large, pixelated and absent text.

If I use a commercial software like Drive Scrubber to clean my HD, will a Win 7 Upgrade Discboot ? I want to eliminate any possible virus/malware. Is there any advantage to using commercial software to format, or is the reinstall format listed in the tutorials as effective? My concern is that Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 (KIS) had corrupted data bases and after removal and reinstallation did not perform well. I could not download anything, e.g. CCleaner and received Certificate Error questions on certain websites. Also, I would like a fresh registry to insure previous programs like Chrome, Firefox, KIS, remnants are eliminated.

I have a few questions and one of them is, what is the difference between an unconditional format and a diskpart's Clean All in the command prompt. When I read their definitions online I don't know what they differ in.

My drive passed SMART extended self test that scans the entire disk surface. Is the full format with command FORMAT FS=NTFS overkill?

I just got my laptop from service. It is a Sony Vaio They supposedly restored my computer to factory setting but I can't update my computer.
The bar to the left is red and i see a red shield with a white x and it says most recent checks for updates: never
updates were installed: never i go to installed programs and nothing has been installed since early 2010.
It's like whenever i try to click check for updates button it's like something is blocking it from connecting and scanning is the best way I can explain it. I desperately need help to update all my software and security patches etc

I just got my laptop from service (they replaced a new hard drive and installed windows 7). It is a Sony Vaio.i own it now but it's a slightly used rent-to-own type of deal so no windows dvd or system restore or anything.They supposedly restored my computer to factory setting but I can't update my computer. The bar to the left is red and i see a red shield with a white x and it says most recent checks for updates: never updates were installed: never i go to installed programs and nothing has been installed since early 2010.It's like whenever i try to click check for updates button it's like something is blocking it from connecting and scanning is the best way I can explain it. I desperately need help to update all my software and security patches etc.I found something online where it says to type services.msc and stop it and go to c/windows/software distribution and delete the files and then start the service so then windows updates still won't scan (windows 7)....says service is not running but it is.

wreaks havoc with my Norton full system scan. It is scheduled weekly, but never does it, because my computer is on, but sleeping. How can I get the scan to not stop during sleep mode or scan if it's in sleep mode? I having to constantly unsleep my computer or change my control panel settings then change it back.

I'm running Windows 7 and have activated the Windows Fax & Scan software. The modem Verizon USB760 is our fax modem. When the software was initially activated, outgoing faxes were sent fine. Recently, it's stopped working completely. Only the coverpage is sent, the fax job fails and retries as many times as I have it configured or until I delete the fax job. I've tried typing directly into the section for page 2 of the fax, and I've tried attaching pdf or txt files with the same incomplete result. I can view the complete fax in the outbound box.

We used to use ZetaFax, I'm told. I'm new to the company. We no longer use ZetaFax. Since bringing in Windows Vista Business and Windows 7 Pro computers, and Windows 2008 Server, we now use Windows Fax and Scan.We use Fax Server on the server with quad port RocketModems installed.Now, here's the problem.Some of our employees are having problems using Windows Fax and Scan. The way they use faxing is by finding the file (usually an Adobe Acrobat pdf), open it and then go to the Fax printer.This then auto faxes the document using Windows Fax and Scan.For most of our employees, this works fine.But, suddenly for some it does not work. When I visit the ones who can't fax, I open Windows Fax and Scan and try to launch it. It does not launch. On some of the computers, the user gets a message that the format must be tif. For others, they get a message saying that they can not access to the document folder.I'd like to remove Windows Fax and Scan on these computers and try to reinstall it and see what happens. How can I do that?

I can't complete a fax in windows fax and scan it will send maybe 2 pages of a 4 page fax and then shut down with a fatal error message. I'm running windows 7/64 bit and using an older Agere V.92 ver. 8.36 internal modem that I removed from my 10 year old HP desktop computer and installed it into my new emachine ( Acer ) ET1352G-03W. The modem is updated with the current drivers as shown in device manager but I don't know if that is enough. If you think the modem is the problem what modem should I buy? I can connect just fine but it just won't complete sending all pages that I loaded..

As reported elsewhere, I had some issues with my Win 7 installation which involved more fiddling than needed but most everything is working again. Why more than needed? In the list of possible solutions, I was given the one that fixed the big problem last. C'est la vie. Now, I get to fiddle with fixing little problems. The latest is that Windows Fax and Scan are no longer workingI have a modem in my computer solely for when I send faxes. With the way that they keep eliminating slots on motherboards, I don't know what I'll do when I upgrade but that's neither here nor there. Back to the story.
A couple weeks ago, I sent a fax without any issues. Today, I needed to send one and Window Fax and Scan couldn't find the modem. When I click on "Connect to a fax modem" I get "an error occured. Please try the operation later."I opened a console and sent some AT commands to the modem and it responded. Off hook, on hook, dial. It is set as COM 3. I do have a Bluetooth dongle that is COM 6.Before Win 7, I used WinFax Pro. I had been using WinFax for years and years and never had a problem. However, WinFax Pro doesn't work with Win 7. One last question. When I started up WFS, it no longer shows my previously sent faxes. Where are those hidden?

I use printer HP PSC 2355 all-in-one. Lately I changed my computer which now uses Windows 7. Ever since, the scan mode of the printer does not function (I receive a message "No scan options" ). Then, I found out that I can use Windows Fax and Scan. However, I cannot use it for scanning multiple pages. I am now in an awkward situation but I would not like to change my printer yet. Therefore, could you advise me if (a) I could do something with the printer to enable scanning as before? how I could scan multiple pages in one file using the Windows Fax and Scan.

How can I stop Windows from asking whether I want to scan and fix an external drive,whenever I turn on that external drive. It gives me the choice to scan and fix or continue without scanning.The annoyance is that when I turn on the external drive, I may be doing something else and the notification will pop up or rather pop under all the other programs and windows I may have open and won't see the notification until I click on the taskbar and Windows Explorer is waiting for some response

Windows Fax & Scan program will not recognize my scanner when I try to scan a document to fax. I just installed an external modem to send faxes using the Windows Fax & Scan program, which BTW worked fine when I typed a document and faxed it. If I try to use the Scan feature instead, I get an error window telling me that no scanner was detected and to check my connections. My scanner, which is a Canon 8400F with the Windows 7 64-Bit drivers, works fine on it's own. I am having no luck making it function with the Windows Fax & Scan program.
