You'd do yourself a favor by not using that word "retarded". :/


I volunteer for a school for special kids.


Glad to read this.
My first born is [MR].

I call the kids "special people" (not directly to them) and they teach me
things about life in general. They don't have mean streaks, it's almost
like they are pure, like they never learned how to hate or be mean. They
just want hugs and someone to talk to. We are not allowed to give them
real hugs anymore, legal said it was a liability. :-(

Then again, one can never truly know who's written posts that appear
under the troll's "name".

Linda at least I don't pretend they're all my own work.... which I
imagine you do. Just saying!


Any post that appears under my nym was written by me unless I say
otherwise. And you do pretend they're your own work because you never
mention who actually wrote them until you get called out. Think about
that you lying troll.

LOL

Another lie. You do claim them as your own work, unless/until one of
us finds out where the information really came from and brings to
everyones attention. THEN, you admit it's not yours and try to
deflect; as you're doing now.


That is exactly correct.

I think I might end up doing a clean reinstall of Windows 8.

However, going through this thread and reading between the lines: http://www.eightforums.com/performan...upt-files.html

I think I know maybe what happened. These problems showed up in Windows sometime after when I cloned a smaller WD HD (512 GB) onto a larger Seagate HD (1 TB). In theory it's not a problem, but in practice I think it confused Windows, which might have anti-piracy keys embedded in it that compound this problem. My OS is a genuine copy of Windows 8.1 running on a fairly new quad core PC.

The reason is that sfc /scannow finds numerous 'errors', not really errors, but it causes perpetual potential false positives when doing chkdsk and disk repair. Below are some of these 'errors' (in practice there's about 30 pages of this, I just picked some representative examples). You can 'fix' these errors by running chkdsk, and then do a HD image backup (I use Clonezilla), but, a few days or hours later, the errors reappear.

RL

sfc /scannow gives (sample output):

2014-11-26 18:46:08, Info CBS Session: 30411110_795857431 initialized by client WindowsUpdateAgent.

NEW POST ------------ 12/14/2014 -------------


I did a clean reinstall,the problem went away, until today, when Windows 8.1 would not boot and I had to do another reinstall (without formating). h E lp !! !!! meee... pA ul an d Fl asher ly... lol

My question is:

It seems the "Seagate 1TB" HDD is bad...but can that be? If I had the old Western Digital 500 MB HDD as "C", in November, and this Seagate 1Tb HDD as "D", back in November, and I did a clean reinstall around Thanksgiving Nov 25, but switched SATA3 drives (so the old Seagate "D" drive is now "C", and vice versa), is it possible that the old WD HDD can 'infect' the new drive with problems? I did a fast format of both drives in November (and deleted the old Windows), so the chances of a virus somehow living on the old drive and infecting the new drive are slim. Also I run MS Security Essentials, full scan, and it's not found a virus.

If my theory about the old drive somehow corrupting the new drive is true, or, equally (because I believe this is true) the Seagate 1 TB drive--the new 'c' drive,old 'd' drive--was defective when I purchased it this year (long story, but the merchant I bought it from sold it suspiciously quick, cheap and with a smirk on his face, and it did not have the original box, though it has warranty stickers on it (this being southeast Asia)--then is it possible that my November problem was caused by the Seagate drive (which at that time was drive "D", now it's system drive "C"). Any feedback appreciated. I've built many a PC from scratch and also code so I'm not a total noob..

PC is running Windows 8.1, legal version (ironically I had no problems with this same system --minus the 'new' and I think defective Seagate 1TB drive-- running a pirate version of Win7) and has mostly legal software save a suspect version of Visual Studio 2013, was built around 2011, i5-quad core, RAM memory is fine except when it is not seated properly (which often happens every few years, but I pop the case, reseat the memory, and the problem goes away--btw, can a memory chip not seated properly cause a HD error, as in CHKDSK error? Interesting if so...) and the BIOS is AMD's with the latest (as of last year) version reflashed into it (I did this after the clean reinstall in Nov. 25).
