on C NTFS file system check drive for consistency

I have 3 times now in the last two weeks I have no idea why, my computer also freezs upwards and is slow now
and help welcome
Thank you

Hello

Backup of critical data to removable media NOW.

Once saved, open and high command prompt. To do this, click on start and type CMD, then right click on the menu entry that appears and choose "Run as Administrator". Click on continue in the UAC prompt. At the prompt, run:

CHKDSK c: /r

You will receive a message that the drive cannot be locked, followed by a command prompt to perform this routine when the system is restarted. Type Y and press . Finish and exit command prompt and restart the system. This extensive routine should then run and fix the problems of file system.

There's a chance is perhaps not able to correct them, in which case you will need to start over with a fresh install after removing and rebuild the volume of the system (which explains why you back up the data before beginning this process because sometimes it is not recoverable to a chkdsk has failed).

  • 'check' drive for consistency at startup with Windows 7

    Hello

    Since upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7, my computer has been running a process to "verify the drive for consistency" before the login screen. Sometimes I can get out by pressing a key, but often the program is not responding. So far no problems have been revealed through the disk check.

    How can I disable the process?

    Thank you

    Check here and see if one of the two fixed works for you.  I would try the premiera first, because it does not involve the registry and seems simple enough.

    Second, how much space will I get after formatting to NTFS file system?

    And third: is it possible to do this in Windows 7 64 - bit OS, or do I have to use another OS?

    In Windows Explorer, right-click on the drive and select Format. Choose NTFS as method in shape.

    You will have 930MB after formatting. The rule is that you have 7% less space than the nominal capacity, which allows the difference between the ability of manufacturers of discs (1 GB = 10 ^ 6) and the ability of Windows (1 GB = 2 ^ 10) and space unusable, drawn upward by the method in shape.
  • FAT32 can convert my NTFS file system?

    my computer is in FAT32 instead of NTFS file system and it won't let me format it, what should I do?

    my computer is in FAT32 instead of NTFS file system and it won't let me format it, what should I do?

    First of all. Note that your * computer * is not FAT32, it is your hard disk which is FAT32. You may have several diosk readers and some could be some FAT32 and NTFS.

    Second, you cannot format your drive from Windows; It is like cutting the branch of a tree, on which you sit.

    Third, why do you want to get in shape? To reinstall Windows or simply to change to NTFS? If you want to reinstall Windows, boot from the Windows CD and follow the instructions for a clean install. It will begin by formatting the drive for you.

    But if you just want to change your drive to the NTFS format, use the CONVERT command. But first read http://www.aumha.org/a/ntfscvt.htm because there is an important question about the size of cluster that is not obvious.

    Note also that conversion is an important step, touching everything on your drive. When you take a big step, no matter how unlikely it is always possible that something can go wrong. For this reason, it is prudent to make sure that you have a backup of everything you can't afford to lose before you start.

  • WPD file system volume driver, card reader, code 10

    Used to have a Vista system to windows 7 update on top and the card reader has worked without any problems, in fact a full install of windows 7, the card reader appears four times (once for each location in the card reader) 'device cant start code 10' 'WPD file system volume driver. " If for example, I put a Memory stick card in the slot, he then shows up in my computer as a drive can be used to read and write from.

    The external USB card reader that I keep with my camera also has the same problem. This works perfectly on XP and Vista on this PC, the internal card reader used to be in this PC also worked great on XP and Vista as well as Windows 7 which has been installed on top of Vista.

    I checked for new drivers for the new card reader, are none for Windows 7, so there should not be any question here.

    Looks like I solved, went into computer management, the Manager disk and found that they were not in fact assigned to the card reader drive letters. Seed it when the media was designed, windows a drive letter assigned automatically, once the media was ejected from the letter assigned was swept away, this caused the WPD 10 error, so I manually set a drive letter for each location on the card reader all errors are now gone.

  • WPD file system Volume driver does not (code 10)

    My card reader has been giving this error in the Manager of devices for a few weeks, I reinstalled Window 7 Pro x 64. He has never had this error previously with Windows 7 Pro x 64 and the card reader didn't come with all the drivers of its own. There is an exclamation mark next to 4 devices in Device Manager marked as "WPD file system Volume driver" in the category of portable devices. There is also an entry under drive for these 4 devices called readers:

    IN - WIN CF Card USB Device, IN - WIN MS Card USB Device, SD Card USB Device IN - WIN SM Card USB Device IN - WIN

    I tried a drive letter to each of the 4 devices allocation but the drive letter will stick only if there is a device inserted into the appropriate slot and the drive letter is removed when I remove the memory card.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is driving me crazy.

    p.s. I just tried the Microsoft Fix It utility, but even if she found the error and reinstalled the driver 4 times (once for each error), it has not solved the problem. Perhaps there is a updated driver somewhere?

    Hi Bendigo,

    As you have tried all the steps, you can try the steps and check mentioned below.

    This problem may be caused by corrupted files of INF. To resolve this issue, try to copy these files from a known 64-bit Windows 7 computer.

    a. try to copy usbstor.inf and usbstor. PNF (c:\windows\inf) from another known computer 64-bit Windows 7 to the problem computer. (You can also download them from another computer on your email and download them on computer problem)

    b. restart the computer check, if it is detected and works very well.

    See the Microsoft article below:

  • Use restore disk errors impossible C and error checking failed to open NTFS file system. Pleas help

    I try to use System. restore and it says drive C contains errors, you should check the drive for errors before you can restore it. When I run an error check it say this type of file system is NTFS: cannot open the volume for direct access. Thanks for any help.

    Hello GregID,

    My recommendation based on your response is to do the following:

    1. Click Start and type 'CMD' in the search bar.
    2. Right-click on the cmd finds it and choose "Run as Administrator"
    3. Type ' CHKDSK/f' and press on it, if it says restart.

    This should allow the system to run CHKDSK in the window that is already open.

    Best regards

  • Why can't I convert my FAT32 to NTFS file system in Win XP SP3?

    I want to move to Vista and Windows 7.  When I ran the upgrade for Vista, I was told that I had to do a clean install and upgrade option has been disabled due to the FAT 32 from my hard drive file system.  I can't wipe my drive because I have a bunch of stuff and I don't have the storage means to do so.

    I followed the instructions on how to convert without data loss, but when I arrived at the command line and entered ' convert c: / fs:ntsf "I got a message that the drive had to be dismantled and that it translated when I rebooted.  So I've done that and restarted.  The blue screen came and began to convert.  Then there were a bunch of error messages regarding bad sectors or bad files and that it could not be converted.

    I then ran chkdsk and chkdsk /f.  The first chkdsk says that there are errors, but they would not fixed because I didn't run with the extension/f.  So I did this and then said that he had to do a restart.  So I restarted and the chkdsk took forever.  When I got back to my office, I ran the line convert again and now I get something along the line of FAT32 and NTFS conversion are not available.

    So in addition to abandon and wipe my drive, how can I fix my drive?  Of course, chkdsk /f has not helped and not more than chkdsk/r.  I tried the magic of partition, acronis, and anything else I can get my hands.

    What should I do now?

    Hi sweetp267,

    Try these steps and check the result.
    a. connect to the admin user account.
    b. Click Start, run, type cmd and click ok.
    (c) in the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER: CONVERT C:/FS: NTFS /V
    d. check the difference.

    The /V will verbose mode and can give more information, if it fails. A restart will be required because the drive is currently in use by the operating system.

  • Corrupt boot drivers and XP NTFS file system

    The system event log shows that I have files corrupted ntfs and suggests also I have the drivers corrupt boot and MS says I should check and repair if necessary - but how do I do this?  There seems to be nothing in the knowledge base on this issue. I have also a no momentum for a service of IP security, but maybe it's just the result of corrupted file system and I will need to recheck once I fixed the underlying problem. Advice please?

    There is also a logon successful for 'Anonymous' on several occasions that may or may not indicate a virus, but may also be the result of damaged files - messy!

    Hello

    I suggest you try to perform the clean boot and check if it helps:

  • How can I change the NTFS file system to say fat so my TV will read the HD Ext USB files? Thank you

    Using Vista, downloaded a movie on 2GB USB flash drive and Iomega 1 TB HARD drive then strove to connect both in TV Grundig.

    Read file ok but wouldn't play film "says cannot read the file format" all clues please? For your info I have 63 years if my grandson was here 6 years old it would probably sort fast time, but I can't! :)

    Hi Norman,

    After you convert a partition to NTFS (New Technology File System), you can not convert back. If you want to use the FAT (File Allocation table) file system on the partition again, you will need to reformat the partition, and this will erase all data on it.

    Click on the link mentioned below as reference.
