I did build raid 1 - 3 TB system and copy pasted all files from previous system to the new system
It did the job correctly however i am afraid of if any file is not copied correctly and it is corrupted
How can i mass check new system has no corrupted file ?
I mean comparison of entire hard drive to entire hard drive.
Windows 8.1
Tonight I used a program called Windows Hotfix Downloader to integrate the 3 updates for Win 8.1 with success. However it gave me folders and not an .iso. I was able to make an .iso with Power Iso but it says non bootable image. In the past I know I used a program to do this with XP,Vista,and Win 7. I tried to follow Power Isos instructions to do it but what to select when it asks for add boot info and wants a source what to put? I just can't remember what easy program I used in the past to make a bootable iso from files. It's not rufus or yumi...they will make a bootable USB. I was able to manually make a UEFI Bootable USB manually and copying the folders over to the flash but still want a bootable iso for archive.

I've tried doing that but it doesn't seem to work so I am guessing it doesn't work on the latest version/build of 8. How to get it to work?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI read the tutorial on building a Windows EFI USB stick from the Windows ISO. I want to build an EFI/USB from an ISO of a bootable third party application, which is not designed to boot from UEFI. First, I went through the steps in Diskpart. Then, I copied the files from the third party ISO to the USB stick. Screenshot 34 shows the objects listed from the third party ISO. The second screenshot (35) shows what I have on my Win 8.1 ISO. I tried to just copy the efi folder and bootmgr files from the Win 8 ISO, but my Win 8 system (a VM) didn't like that at all. !
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis issue has been an ongoing one about close to a year after i purchased my PC. It is an ASUS PC when i go to the support site for updates in the past and now for my model i see BIOS updates.
Lately they have been all CAP Bios's,any time i try to use these type of BIOS's it is not recognized in the BIOS utility in the BIOS screen.
My last BIOS update was a ROM BIOS it worked fine, now all the future BIOS updates on ASUS's site are CAP.
If I try to rename the BIOS to a ROM i get an error "image integrity check failed". Of course i have spoken to ASUS Support in the past and now over the phone also, but no luck.
I do know it can be risky updating a BIOS if anything goes wrong the PC will become unstable or unusable.
Most will say unless there is not something in the BIOS update that will make improvements to the PC.
It has been 4 or so BIOS updates since one i have on this PC so far on ASUS's site.
I believe my motherboard is not compatible with a CAP BIOS, but why ASUS lists them for my PC.
I was scanning some papers with Scan in Windows 8, but when they were scanned and I viewed them in Scan the image was much larger than the original and I couldn't find any 'Original size' option or similiar. So how do I view papers and images in original size in Scan and aswell when I view them in Paint and other programs?

Today I installed latest TuneUp utilities program, and it recomended me to use ' disk doctor' , after that, Ive restarted laptop as it asked, and now all i see is HP logo and that line, where it says ' S. and R. drive C : 10% completed ..
It been like that for a hour or so...
I had did disk scan n repair month ago as well, but then everything worked without any problems. Then (month ago) and now, while this scan and repair is working, I hear some kind of sounds coming out from my laptop. Like clunking,very quiet beepinv or clicking something like that( never heard these sounds, while i boot and use my laptop normaly).
Ive red in this forum about same situation, but didnt got correct answer.
Is there anyway to cancel this scan? I tried holding power button and restarting like that- on boot it goes on s and r. again, and stucks at 10% ..
If no, how long it will take to scan and fix c disk, if it has 1TB in in?
I have a Samsung Ativ Book 4 (model number: np470r5e-k01ub). When I turned on my laptop today, I was prompted the message "scanning and repairing drive c". This has been going on for longer than I expected (about 6 hours and is stuck at 9%) and I am starting to get worried that something is seriously wrong. I have tried rebooting into safe mode but my keyboard isn't working. I have no way (that I know of) to restore to factory settings seeing as how my keyboard isn't working.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have this new ASUS S400 vivobook and since day 1 there is no sound coming out of the speakers when they are not used for 5 min or so. I have tried the following actions one at a time but without fixing the problem: Updating "audio inputs and outputs", "sound, video and game controllers" and "high definition audio controller" from the device managerdisabling bluetooth audio or intel audiounchecked "exclusive mode" on speaker's properties under "advanced" tab.selected playback through speakers on mic's properties under "listen" tab.
The only action that wakes up my speakers is to scan for new hardware in "audio inputs and outputs" but THIS ONLY WORKS TEMPORARILY SINCE AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF NOT USING THE SPEAKERS THEY GO BACK IN A "COMA"
My pc is running windows 8 and Realtek audio software.
Today I got an IO error when trying to upload a song to a music site. After doing research it said to run a test on command. Once I restarted my laptop it stated scanning and tunnibg. My computer went to safe mode but would not come out if it. I had no choice but to press down the power button. I tied it back on and it ran again. After 10mintues it went to 27% and stayed there for an hour. Now it went to sleep mode again. I don't know what yo do. I can't stare at the computer for ever to keep it from not going to sleep mode. My laptop is a year old and is an HP.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI run this copy of Windows 8 Professional in a virtual machine and every time I leave that VM for just a couple of minutes the OS starts using up an enormous amount of HDD that significantly slows down my host machine. It turns out that Windows 8 begins what they call "Scheduled scan" when there's no user input:

and as soon I switch back to the VM with Windows 8 the HDD "hogging" stops. Obviously this is very annoying!
In light of this, I'd like to ask how to stop this background scanning?
PS. I tried going to the Action Center and schedule maintenance for 3AM or something remote but that doesn't seem to have any effect.
i recently got a new laptop "asus vivobook" that came preloaded with windows 8.
The laptop comes with a hybrid 24 GB ssd (8GB of those are for the system files,windows 8 is installed on,the remaining are in a 2nd partition for recovery) i deleted the recovery partition and made a recovery on an 8 GB usb drive,because im dual booting a different linux os alongside windows.
I used rEFInd boot manager to boot the 2 operating systems,everything boot and works fine.
However,since the dual booting started i noticed that the windows 8 loading time has became a bit slower,when i choose to sart windows 8 the asus logo appears and under it this message
"Scanning and repairing volume (?Volume{...large hex identifier..}): 100% Complete"
it stays for 2,3 seconds and then windows 8 start,i ran a chkdsk for the c drive,but that didnt solve the problem.
Every time I boot up my windows 8 laptop now, it just says Scanning and Repairing drive C and then it gets stuck at 27% and never moves past that
View 3 Replies View RelatedI wanted to do a system restore on my Toshiba laptop but when I tried Windows just restarted, gave me error 0x81000204 and told me I should run chkdsk /R. I tried to run chkdsk and everything was going fine and working at a normal speed until it got to 10%, at which point it got stuck and has been at 10% for over two hours. The circle on screen is still spinning so I know my laptop hasn't frozen or anything. I don't really want to have to cancel the disk check because I want to be able to do my system restore, so I was wondering if there's any way to fix this without cancelling, restarting etc. Or if I have to cancel the disk check, how can I do a system restore without doing another disk check and getting stuck again?

Laptop model: toshiba satellite l70d-a
Age: 3 months old
Problem: when loading laptop Scanning and Repairing drive C stuck at 100%. I cannot do anything else than removing the battery. Started suddenly. I have tried to see if there were hd problems but found nothing.
I have opened the registry and (following the suggestion from the thread above I have looked at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSession Manager) the reg key is:
autocheck autochk *
And also, since we are talking about the registry, if anything goes wrong how do I reload the registry backup I have just made?
I downloaded and installed Windows 8 on October 26th. So far, great experience however... the last couple of days when starting my new Dell Inspiron 5720 it is running a "Scanning and Repairing (C) and is getting stuck at 27% (waited over 2 hours) so I hold down the power button and it restarts as normal. Only seems to start the check on every 2nd or 3rd startup. I have googled and read many articles and have since error checked my C: drive through properties with no errors being reported.
I guess my question is what would cause this to all of a sudden start and why and how do I stop it. It is very frustrating . I have completed virus scans, defrag, error checking, etc.
The Dell laptop is new but came with Windows 7 in early October. It is 8GB RAM with a 1TB drive running Intel 7.
A couple days ago, somehow, I turned on 'scanning your device' and now I get a black screen every time I plug my phone into the USB port to charge it. how to disable this 'feature'. It's really annoying because the connection is a bit worn, and it keeps connecting and disconnecting...connecting and disconnecting...connecting and disconnecting...connecting and disconnecting...connecting and disconnecting...connecting and disconnecting...connecting and disconnecting...connecting and disconnecting...connecting and disconnecting...
I don't want anything to happen when I plug the phone into the USB port.
So, long story short I had some YouTube uploading troubles, I asked some guy about it and he said its possibly caused by a virus, so I looked at my antivirus and it said there was an error with my C drive and I needed to restart to repair it, so I did and the repair process got stuck at 27% for about half an hour, I've tried everything and I've looked everywhere, but I got nothing, my laptop now can't do anything, if I try to skip the repairing process it just restarts it again so I can't get anywhere with it, it's a new computer

View 9 Replies View RelatedA week ago or so I had a machine failure. I had all the documents saved. It took me quite a long time to get me up and running on another machine. At the moment I'm interested in finding out if there is a possibility to backup/clone a finished installed system to a usb(bootable) drive.
In case of failure of a machine a bootable usb drive would give the option of continuing the basic work. At least you could instantly communicate with clients and so on till the new machine is installed. My Mac friend uses Superduper. What are the options in Windows 8? What 3party programs would be capable to do that?

I recently went to command prompt on my main pc and did : chkdsk /f /r on my main computer.
It said "the current thing is in use, would you like to run check disk on startup? (Y/N) I put Y, then restarted my computer. Then it was stuck on 27% for about an hour, so I got worried and restarted my computer about two or three more times. it says "scanning and repairing drive (C 27% complete)" and none of the times it would load regular windows so I decided to just stick with it.
It's been over 3 hours, and it's still stuck on 27%. How can I disable it or how long will it take?

Also I tried f8 and it just brings me back to system restore, and when I tried that it just gave me a black screen, so i'm just letting my PC sit and do the C: repair
I'm having troubles with a disk check.
Firstly, I'd like to mention that I've had this PC for a while... I've even taken the whole thing apart and swapped out all of the components (slowly upgraded over time). It's actually at the stage where I've been left with all the old parts as spares, and put everything back together, almost exactly as it was when I bought it. All in all, the initial build is probably 2 or 3 years old now (for the most part, the specs can be found here).
After formatting the hard drive, putting things together back with the old build, and booting up Windows 8 onto it as a gift for my dad, most things were working fine, but one exe file which I copied across wasn't running (at least one which I noticed). I checked up the error code, found people with similar problems, and heard it could just be that the file was corrupted.
So, to get to the main point... I figured it wouldn't hurt to run a disk check, in case there were any other errors or problems. I knew it would take a while, so I opened command prompt, and typed in "chkdsk C: /r", before hitting enter, letting it schedule the disk check for next startup, rebooting the PC, and then leaving it to do its thing. It's been running probably for about 4 or so hours now, and for most of that time it's been at 27% on "Scanning and repairing drive (C:)". Normally I'd just give in and force shut down at this point, but I'm wondering... what's the best course of action if it doesn't get anywhere with this?
I'd really prefer not to force shut down, in case it causes any errors... I mean to say the least it's taken some effort and persistence to get the old build up and running again.
