Windows 7, slow start, after that initial windows backup has been done internally SATA 3 to disk

Any new installation of Windows 7 on a CORE I7, SSD as the first disk, and WD3TB as the backup Z: drive

If the 3 TB is freshly formatted, "starting Windows" takes about 8 seconds.

Copy 150 GB of data on the 3 to, start-up time is not affected.

Then after the initial backup of Windows is made for 3 to on the next restart and subsequent reboots, "Starting Windows" ~ 50 seconds.

Checked on another PC and other tests on a CORE i5 - 3570 K 3.4 GHZ with SSD as C: and WD3TB as the backup.

The fix was to change the windows of formatting of the allocation size of the 3 TB to 64K, the default value is 4 k.

Calculation of the allocation size and time to "starting Windows":

After a backup on the CORE i5;

Alloc Time seconds

2K 85

K 4, 57 (default Allocation size)

8K 32

16K 19

32K 13

64K 11

Before a backup: it is freshly formatted

4K 8

    Original title: Back Up system - disk and check

    Since this is a secondary drive chkdsk/r can be run without having to reboot.   Close all the programs that can access training and and when you run chkdsk say yes to "remove this volume first...". ».  This will cause no harm.  Although not strictly necessary, I recommend you to reboot once completed the disk check.   This will solve any problem related to the file handles.
    If chkdsk/r reports bad sectors, you should replace the disk.

    If the software is an older version, you can download the demo version of the software using the link below and then use your current serial number to activate it.

  • On NEW laptop keyboard does not work after that the screen keyboard has been activated and then deactivated.

    Look at my friend got a new laptop and went through the whole upward. the on-screen keyboard has been activated which invalidates the real keyboard when the on-screen keyboard has been disabled the real keyboard has NO return. If this is a bug... Fix it. This is not a driver issue, it is not a user error. Stop giving people answers, trying to pretend like it's not not the OS when most people already know that it is.

    I'm sorry, but I didn't not new meant only one day.  And when I got my new laptop, one of the first things I did was to create a point of files, even a day later I had a restore to use - point and that was possible here as well.  I'm sorry it wasn't the case.

    If the system restore option is not available, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

    If this does not work, you can try to go into the BIOS during the startup (the key appropriate to push appear on the screen to enter the boot menu or boot installation - try them both in turn if both appear. It is possible that the BIOS contains an option to disable the keyboard (which may have been activated by the keyboard on the screen but not changed when disable you the on-screen keyboard) and you may need to re-enable manually.  There is a slight possibility, but it is an option to try.

    Another option to try is to set up a new user account that has never used the keyboard on the screen and see if the regular keyboard works when you connect to this account.  If so, you can simply treat the original as a corrupt account account and use the following procedures to complete the transfer.  To fix this use http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.

    I hope that one of these aid procedures.  I'm sorry if they seem to 'generic', but we do not really know what is the problem - especially since the system is new.  We try and identify the cause and fix the problem at the same time using the procedures available to us.  I suspect there's a registry tweak will correct this problem, but I went through the whole registry, and although I found several referencers keyboard, I could find no which seemed to control or not activate the main laptop keyboard (though it has been in one of the entries that has been encoded in binary that I couldn't read).  It's possible someone who knows more about the registry will respond to this issue with a proposal to amend (or perhaps another solution).

    I hope that one of the solutions I proposed works.  Please post back in all cases we will know whether or not to continue searching for an answer.

    Good luck!

  • HotSync locks after that loss of data has been restored

    I have a Palm Centro software 6.2.2. and XP Pro operating system

    After an update of Windows rebooted my computer, I lost all my calendar entries. I tried to recover by doing a HotSync with Pocket crushing the computer. Locked HotSync. Dialog box has had two calendar entries and told 'Done' and the other says "synchronization." I closed the HotSync (had to go to the Task Manager) and I then recovered from a backup entries and added all the entries from the backup of the handheld to the computer. At this point, all entries in the two handheld and computer are the same. So, I tried an another HotSync with total (without crushing Pocket) synchronization and synchronization locked again. Can you help me?

    Thank you

    Regret not responding earlier and thank you for your help. DBFixIt did that, if I were to buy - free download didn't cut it for my problem. After using the software, synchronization worked again but becasuyeof duplicate entries, I had to delete all the calendar items of handheld and PC, import my last back upward and synchronize from there. Indeed, I learned the value of backups!

    Thank you very much

  • My SYSTEM WINDOWS 7 has been down since 09/25/12, I get an error on all solutions.

    My SYSTEM WINDOWS 7 has been down since 09/25/12, I get an (error) on all the solutions, I can't have a phone number to talk to a person.

    What the computer does? Have what solutions you tried?

    You may need to start over with a clean slate. A facility "to return to the factory" would get your system operational return...

    Note that unless you save all the important things, it would be lost after the reset. If your computer does not at all to the top, you will need to remove the hard drive and connect it to another computer in order to save the important things...

    Re start over... Your computer is equipped with a recovery instead of disk partition...

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, restart and until that screen "Advanced Boot Options" appears, press "F8".

    You may need to try several times to get everything above to work. If after several attempts, you have no chance, or the machine indicates that there is no recovery partition, your only option is to contact the computer manufacturer and ask for the model recovery discs...

    After the reset, you should get all the updates from Windows Update EXCEPT for hardware devices. Then, you install a good antivirus. ONLY AFTER you have done this, if you replace the stuff of backups or install anything else.

  • Windows 8 has been deleted and my windows.old/programfiles?

    I was rather annoyed that windows 8, rather than integrate my existing programs and settings, pushed everything including parameters in windows.old/ProgramFiles (what is the point of having a check box that says 'keep existing settings' if it has not yet rendered my inaccessible email until I downloaded windows live mail again?)

    However, after hours of violin, I managed to do a combination of programs to re - install and run with difficult settings from the file directory windows.old/program through desktop shortcuts
    In recent days the shortcuts no longer works and I see windows 8 has been deleted and my windows.old/programfiles directory!
    It is not in my trash, it isn't in my forties AVG

    Anyone know where it is!
    I did not understand why windows 8 should go through all my programs from the road, so it would take me hours to do shortcuts... but deleting the entire directory and my settings? Come on, this is ridiculous
    HELLLLP!
