Windows 7 Ultimate computer seems to have stopped, head HD not seeking chkdsk errors
Last week, I look at a the news on Youtube. Turned away from the computer, came back and heard a strange clicking noise. I listened closer and could hear the hard drive heads look back. It sounded as if the head arm was moving inside the trays and then swing to the outside several times.
Click on the reset button and the computer would not start, error says no bootable disk found. Turned off the computer, went to retrieve another new drive and create a bootable stick from my WHS server. Come back I would try once more thought, and the started computer. A ran Chkdsk with the option of scanning and repair bad sectors. He found a no mistake. A few days later the computer slowed to almost a complete stop, (non-response) error in the program I was using (Firefox). A ran chkdsk once more on the C drive and found 24 index who needed compensation, but that it has been.
It is an i7 2600K cpu @ 3.40 ghz 3.39 Ghz, 16 GB ram, and two 3.5 "HGST (Hitachi/Western Digital) drive 500 GB which is about 5 years old now.
Even if Chkdsk reports no errors, I always suspect that the drive has failed. As I looked at the scan of glomeruli that it suspended or 20 seconds in two places. First to around 1100 groups then back to 14 000 clusters.
I have a new Seagate drive custom quality company. The chkdsk seems to mitigate the problems, but I know now that I'm running on a ragged edge and she will soon be a serious failure.
I suspect it's the same story horror IBM-Hitachi again. Readers are not mounted tight, there is a lot of space around them. I don't think overheating is the problem.
Your contribution is appreciated.
Hi Donald,.
Please answer these questions to better understand the issue.
- What is Windows 7 connected to Windows Home Server?
- Is the computer on the domain or server network?
You can deal with this problem due to the hardware failure. Looks like a bad impact on the hard drive. If it is under warranty, save and send it for repair. (If the computer is under warranty, send it - withdrawal of the drive will void the warranty.) If it is not under warranty, reinstall the drive (after saving).
Make sure you do, save it before he gets defective.
There are two hard disk problem physical and non-physical. If your hard drive sound like it, its may damage on your hard drive. First of all, you should be do is keep and back up your data and then remove those hard with the new drive. Do not use again this type of hard drive that will cause the problem in the future.

Satellite L755-11j - cooling fan seems to have stopped working
Hello
I have the model Satellite L755-11j and I'm really happy with it, strong, fast and reliable, I have only one problem: my cooling fan seems to have stopped working.
I don't know if it's a hardware or software (BIOS is set to dynamic switch, and in the power management is set to 'Active') delivers, because I come from Croatia, diagnostic PC is incredibly overpriced here and I can replace the fan on my own.
I want to just make sure I don't buy new cooling fan and my problem persists. Install speedfan and Toshiba PC health monitor only confirmed what I suspected, my laptop gets hot.
I bought the external cooling fan to help keep the temperature of my laptop down, but with the coming of the summer that I really want to solve this problem.
To be honest, it is not easy to help you with this. Is that cooling fan works automatically and there is not a special option where you can control. Only thing you can change is the cooling method option that you can find in the advanced power options > Toshiba power saver.
Check it please what option is set to on. Of course on this virtual path, it is not easy to tell if the cooling fan is defective or not.
It works or not? Can you notice hot air flow when you put your hand on the cooling grill placed on the left side of your laptop? -

Dell XPS 12 Mini DisplayPort seems to have stopped working
Hello
My Mini DisplayPort seems to have stopped working. I can connect on the same monitor of the ultrabook even through the USB port. However, because I'm a geek of database I need up to 3 screens. So when I try and connect to my Mini DisplayPort monitor the screen resolution tab in the Control Panel recognizes the display. However, the actual display is empty. Mini DisplayPort has worked well for the last 8 months or so, but stopped working tonight.
The external monitor is; -Samsung; SyncMaster 941BW/940BW\199BW, SyncMaster Magic CX915BW (Digital)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards
Kieran.
I replaced the cable and now it seems to work.
Thank you

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate on my Toshiba Tecra A4-S211 and provided that the installation went, it seemed that took place without incident; except that when I try to start windows I see: "Starting windows" followed by "Setup prepares your computer for first use" that is displayed for about 3-5 seconds and then it restarts and displays abruptly: "cannot start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. "I tried the safe mode, but also"last known good configuration"and I get the same results. Finally, I tried the repair function on the installation disc and says am Startup Repair is unable to repair the computer automatically, where then I click to send information to Microsoft to be told that if I had all the devices attached like a camera or portable music player to remove them and restart. I have nothing set, no flash player or anything.
I tried to do all the steps above a dozen times each, and the results are consistent, except that the start of repair is sometimes said that there is nothing wrong with windows. Here also to point out that I had XP running on it before without problem and I tested the DVD on another computer and it worked.Hi Austin,.

My computer seems to have forgotten the last 2 years +. He welcomed me to my new Dell this morning.
I downloaded programs are listed as coming out on my hard drive, but most of them will not work (you can double click on them but nothing happens).
All my favorites are gone, my image of the desktop shortcuts on my desktop, my music library - all gone.
Why? How?
So should I start over? I would say that 85% of the stuff that I seem to have lost was not backed up. (I guess I learned my lesson)
Help, please.
Thanks again.
I don't know how, but my computer behaves normally. For the time being.
I will absolutely go on the suggestions you offer because now I'm a little paranoid that it could happen again. The first thing I did was to create a restore point: If if my computer has forgotten who I am and what we do for 2 years, I have little confidence it will me humor by remembering a restore point.
If you're curious, I rebooted this safe but when mode with the option of fixing my computer immediately the bat, I chose that. Asked me to log in as an administrator, but it did not recognize my password. I tried to log in under the other two profiles, but none of the passwords (the correct password, I wasn't guessing) have been recognized. Finally, the system gave to my never be able to give the password so he wanted the window closed, and I was introduced to the usual start with the usual 3 Profiles screen. I logged in that I normally use and! Hey presto! everything was back to normal.
I'm not lying or mistaken when I say that the first thing I did when the problem occurred was to log on as a different user because I assumed that I had signed in under a different profile. I logged in again under the correct profile, but everything was gone.
I find it incredibly mysterious.
But thank you a thousand times for having given me so many great tips.
See you soon,.
