"Your drive should be checked for consistency.

Hello

I was wondering if you could help us?  I am running Vista on a Dell laptop and recently have been receiveing "your drive should be checked for consistency" at the start - it, then crosses the chkdsk to BACK process.  It goes through the process very well, deleting some files and move others. However, once I have connected to Windows, my laptop does work for a few minutes before freezing completely upwards. I thought it was just streaming elements that aggravate freeze it, but it seems to freeze no matter what I do.  I continue to have force a switch to stop/off that I can't even restart.

Its been my computer completely unusable - is there something I can do to solve this problem, apart from buying a new one?

Thank you!

Katie

Thanks - how could I do?  Is this a hardware problem?

Sounds like it... You said, "it goes through the process very well, deleting some files and moving others." which tells CHKDSK is to find questions and tries to compensate for them.  However, who can only go so far and if there are internal physical damage on the disc itself (disk drive I guess - not an SSD) then the damage could extend.  Sooner or later, you might get to a point where you don't even have the option to boot.

What your backups?

You can find the manufacturer of the hard drive itself and get their diagnostic utilities and test the drive entirely with those.  That will tell you if you have real bad sectors and like it or whether a zero and writing with their utility and the new installation of the operating system could help.  It is more likely that it is a pity however.

    Hi RodrigoGodinez,
     
    Sometimes the disk check always starts check the file system on one or more drives for consistency. If no button is pressed, the disk check is aborted. In fact, it is because a data structure of the disc or file is corrupted which can not be recovered and check disk always runs at Windows startup.
     
    Restart the computer and run the command chkdsk from the recovery console.
     
    To boot into the recovery console, see the following article:
     
    Additional reference on:
     
    For more information about the disk check, see:

  • Should be checked for consistency

    I received the following message during the time I turn on my computer, "one of your drives should be checked for consistency. You can cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended that you continue. To skip disk checking, press a button within 10 seconds. »

    Then I press any key to cancel, but restart the computer again and the same message on the screen shows. Please let me know how I can fix this problem, thanks.

    After a regular stop. Turning off too soon may cause chkdsk run. But I guess you do.

    Interestingly, something different may be at stake.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/831374 tells a similar message if there are too many files on the disk and that you are not running the latest service pack.

    If this happens during more than once then-
    Well, if it was the 1st time in 2nd or 3rd then maybe you don't shut down the computer properly, can you just don't let the scan disk utility (the tool that checks your hard drive for consistency) to complete its work when the pc starts. But if this is not the case, then maybe your hard drive has developed bad sectors, or there may be another problem with him.

    To check the conditions weather, the above is true then right-click on the drive on which is checked at startup and select scan disk. See the results and you will probably notice the problem yourself.

    Hi DanaCox,

    You did it of any material changes or software on the computer before this problem?

    I suggest you chkdsk from the Recovery Console and check if the problem persists.

    At the Recovery Console prompt, type which Suits, and then press ENTER:

    CHKDSK [/ p]: [/ r]

    Note: At first, try to run chkdsk/p & check if it helps. Later, you can run chkdsk/r.

  • checking system files on d: type: ntfs one of your disks needs to be checked for consistency.

    I get this error message.  I also have the message "windows-delayed write failed." My computer will start when I cancel the ckdsk, but will freeze shortly after.  Is there something I can do?

    Looks like your hard drive is a failure. I guess D:\ is a hard drive or a hard drive partition and not a CD/DVD drive.

    Test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility downloaded from site of the disc mftr. or use SeaTools for BACK of Seagate. You create a bootable CD with the files you download. You will need a third party burning software to do as the free ImgBurn, Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data.

    Boot with the CD that you have done and do a full test of the reader. The physical tests fail, replace it.

    The Windows boot splash screen appears and then I get the above message on a BACK screen when I start my laptop.  I am running Windows 7 64 bit... it does not recognize when I try to ignore it and it freezes.  I tried hard to stop and start again without luck to get past this screen.

    Let the system run the disk check. Will take some time, but let it run.

  • Fitness to drive should be checked

    I have a Toshiba A series SATA 640 GB (5400). Recently, I received my HARD drive changed for the 3rd time consecutively. They all failed. On arrival, they said.

    While returning, they had a trial version of windows. So I used my recovery disk to recover. The first time there was an error in creating a partition through restore Toshiba (had to reboot). SO I chose the normal restore and it was restored. But it worries me. I want to check the HARD drive completely for the fitness, afraid that he will fail in the near future. IS the drive HARD tune good enough?

    Said the State ok. Average temperatures of HDD is 40-45 (I work in the tropics and room temperature is also 30 c)

    Colleagues please advice. I really Don t want to spread to Toshiba.

    WSB

    PS: I get a few screen shots of tune HDD if someone wants to see the bench mark.

    With laptop computers is the same as for cars. They may work for years without problem, or a part may be defective, after a short period of time. There is no diagnostic tool which can inform you if a part must be defective in the near future.

    You can check the HARD disk using a tool, but the State will be for now and none of them can tell you if your HARD drive will not work in the near future.
    I can understand you, and it is very annoying if you need to change the HARD drive so often, but I n t think there is anything you can do about it.

    All you need to do is take care of your laptop, especially if you work in the tropics. Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop. For example, you can place the back side of your laptop on two CD boxes to have a little more distance between the laptop and the desktop.

    Sorry, but I really don t know what else you can do.

  • Which hard drive should I buy for a Satellite L350-262?

    Hello

    I looking to upgrade my internal hard drive, but have no idea of what one to buy it, is to say what we'd be compatiable, can someone help me?

    I'm not sure in regards to the size of the hard drive and sites I'll on only produced lists with very little about the compatibility with my machine.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Hello

    The laptop supports SATA 2.5 HARD disk.
    As much as I know SATA controller is not limited, so you can use the 500 GB HARD drive as well.

  • Check the disk for consistency

    I read messages will this question hide two to five years. I guess my problem is the same: black screen on startup with white 'BACK', writes, "one of your disks needs to be checked for consistency. You can cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended that you continue. Windows will now check the disk. "What has happened three times in the last two months, and nothing was found in the mess at the end of the audit.

    Responses to previous posts are frankly discouraging - at least for me. I want to know is if this disk check is a signal that all is not well with the computer, or if it's just a gene that will probably calm down. Would it not be in my interest to call a repairman? I'm not interested in venturing into the only registry.

    Thank you.

    There is nothing remarkable or unusual in the chkdsk report, no bad sectors or the reported bad clusters.  Run the utility of diagnosis of the constructor on the drive and see if it reports disk problems, go to the web site of the manufacturer of the drive for the utility.
