Constant Disk Access That Doesn't Show On Procmon?
Oct 1, 2011I have a WD Green drive which parks its heads after 8 seconds of inactivity. This is measured by "load/unload cycle count" in SMART, and WD rates the drive for 300,000 cycles. I have accumulated over 15,000 in the span of a few days, which obviously isn't good for drive longevity. I don't have a way to run the tool provided by WD to alter the timeout for the heads, so I need to figure out what is causing this frequent disk access. Prior to whenever this started (I'm assuming it was a few days ago, when I installed a new motherboard) I was averaging 0-10 load/unload cycles per day, depending on how often I accessed the drive.I checked activity with Resource Monitor and found nothing accessing the drive except for the very occasional access of BCD.log and the MFT. However, I'm seeing ~3-6 load/unload cycles per minute, so something is accessing the drive every 8-20 seconds.
I tried using procmon. I set it to filter only for activity on E: (the drive in question) and I unchecked all the default "exclude" filters; I saw nothing besides procmon accessing the drive. I ran it for a good 5 minutes.The drive is connected to an Intel Z68 SATA II controller. I have no other drives which park their heads so I don't know if this activity occurs on all my drives or not. Again, nothing shows in procmon or Resource monitor. What can I do to see what's accessing the drive?Tried so far:Disabling SuperfetchDisabling AV

What Is The Difference Between Local Disk C And Local Disk D
Feb 3, 2013What is the difference between local disk C and local disk D? I have about 4 GB space left in C and D is empty. Is there any advantage in putting a system image on D? Are both C and D contained in the hard drive, and if the hard drive goes bad you lose it all anyway?

Apr 16, 2010one day about 2 weeks ago, my net stopped working just randomly. I get the error 'Local Area Connection doesn't have a valid IP' when i try to use the router, and some 'unidentified network' shows up, i cannot connect to it.I reset everything and unplugged everything but couldnt get it to work until i unplugged from the router and plugged my computer directly to the modem. A good fix to get the net going in a pinch but it has become a real problem with me, my husband and my kids all using one computer when we're used to having our own. You cant even imagine the drama.I've tried everything i can to fix it, usually google gets me through anything i cant fix on my own and i did come across a few other people having my problem, they all seemed to fix it by disable a bonjour process. I had the same service running but their trick to disable it didnt fix my problem, it is still exactly the same.Another suggestion was to get rid of windows 7 driver for the network card and use the vendors own driver, tried that, made no diff either. also tried rolling back to several different times but for some reason the process failed.

Feb 11, 2013One of my computers is getting the "local area connection doesn't have a valid ip configuration" error from troubleshooting my network. My network is an "Unidentified Network" with NO NETWORK or INTERNET ACCESS. This happened ever since I installed a new modem. The modem is WORKING with all other computers. My NIC card for the computer that is not connecting, is also working since I tested it on another modem. I had to call the ISP to activate the new modem. I spoke with them and they said nothing is blocked on their end.So I've narrowed it down to my computer since there is no hardware issue. I connect by LAN, FYI. I've tried new cables, etc. My computer has no "BONJOUR" in it nor does it have any firewalls set up, just Windows Security Essentials.I noticed in my IPCONFIG /ALL that no IP shows up for my default gateway (should be 192.168.0.1). DHCP is enabled. I tried static IP as well to no avail.

Feb 16, 2011Having a problem connecting to the internet with a Ethernet connected desktop. I am getting the following error '"Local Area Connection" doesn't have a valid IP configuration'. I have tried everything I have found on internet using my laptop with no success. This is in an apartment building so no access to the router.
What I've tried:
- Laptop works when connected to the same ethernet jack
- Desktop does not work when connected to another ethernet jack
- Reset winstock and ip/tcp stack cmd "netsh winsock reset catalog" and netsh int ip reset reset.log"
- Reinstalling drivers
- Do not have bonjour dns services
- Reinstalled windows 7 not formatting

Jan 19, 2012I�m having intermittent network/internet problems on my dsl wired ethernet connection. Sometimes the internet works fine. Other times the internet is really slow or the network says unidentified network. I run the troubleshooter and it resets the local area connection adapter, giving the error that LAC didn�t have a valid IP configuration. But this fix doesn't seem to last more than a day or so. Also, downloads with windows firewall and/or zonealarm firewall on fail or are interrupted, but not when firewall is turned off. I�ve tried a clean install of Windows. Reinstalled drivers. Reset the modem. I tried ipconfig /renew. Nothing seems to work. Windows 7 home premium 64 bit Realtek RTL8111C Gigabit Ethernet All my drivers are updated.

Local Area Connection Doesn't Have Valid IP Configuration?
Feb 15, 2012I got a new laptop a couple days ago. It was for work so I brought it to the office. We have an open network in the office, you just need to plug into it with a regular cable. We've had it for years and it always worked. Not this time.When I'd first plugged it, it came online, but the connection had been lost in a couple minutes. When nothing obvious worked, I tried to diagnose and got the infamous "Local Area Connection doesn't have valid IP configuration" error. I've googling it ever since, trying to do everything possible to fix this.The network adapter is Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller. I've tried using different cable, restarting the router, all the ipconfig stuff, resetting winstock etc. I've formatted the hard drive and installed Win 7 from scratch. I've checked the BIOS - it only has one LAN-related setting and it's enabled. I've been to Realtek website and downloaded their latest drivers. The latest one is from JanFinally I've seen a few thread suggesting that this whole issue is router-related. So I brought the laptop home to try it there without any router in the way. It was pretty much the same - got connection, working for half a minute, gone. Diagnosing got me the same error. I've tried disabling ipV6 and playing with adapter configuration, but it didn't change much.

Jun 9, 2012I have a NVIDIA nForce 10/100 Mpbs Ethernet Adapter. It was working for about a year, but one day it just quit on me. My computer and router are recognizing each other because there is a green flashing light on it, however I have no internet connection. It tells me that it is an "Unidentified Network" with no internet connection. When I run the Microsoft troubleshooter, I get the message "Local Area Connection doesn't have a valid IP configuration". I have even tried stopping the Bonjour DNS service responder, and that has not helped. I know this is not a hardware issue, because the lights are flashing and the computer recognizes an ethernet connection. I have a 2Wire router/modem.

Sep 19, 2009This is the error I got, and I couldn't connect to the internet. ""Local Area Connection" Doesn't have a valid ip config.It also stated that I had an unknown network, and I couldn't get an IP from the DHCP Server for some reason.I used the 'netsh int ip reset c: esetlog.txt' method in the command prompt, and after I restarted, it still didn't work, so then, I remembered about an old computer in the garage with an ethernet card in it! So, I put that old dusty card it, and plugged my cable into it instead of the default on my motherboard. After a min of it trying to find and install a driver, it failed, and I still couldn't connect. So, I decided to plug it back into the motherboard ethernet if the card wasn't going to work, and whala, it worked.

Nov 8, 2009I am running Windows 7 Professional 32 bit on both my local and remote systems.
My local system uses a brother HL-5250DN printer hooked up via a network cable (otherwards, it's not directly connected).
My remote computer was running Visa Ultimate and when I connected from home, it would see the Brother printer from the Windows 7 machine.
Since I upgraded the remote system to Windows 7, the printer is no longer seen remotely.
Any suggestions?
'Local Area Connection' Doesn't Have A Valid IP Config
Mar 26, 2010I got that message when I did the basic troubleshoot for my connection. The internet was working earlier this morning, and has been working for the past few months, but when I got back home today it just, seemingly randomly, stopped for no reason.Yes, I know there have been lots of people asking about this problem, and I've tried a few different things, but I just can't get the internet to work.I'm pretty sure it's not the router, a computer with WXP works just fine, as well as Xbox Live. Ipconfig in command prompt came up with 169.254.187.196 as Autoconfig IPv4, if that makes a difference. My only active network is an unidentified, public network.I've reset PC, modem, and router. Ping 127.0.0.1 was successful, so does that mean it isn't the NIC? The NIC is, I believe, a Broadcom Netlink Gigabit Ethernet. I didn't have the option to rollback drivers so I guess that won't work =/.
