I have an HP ENVY dt7 running Windows 8, purchased Nov 2012. Have already had to do 1 refresh. As of yesterday, it's again back where it was before the last refresh (IE, Firefox, Outlook won't run). Found your SFC tutorial and ran it. Came back w/unrepaired errors 3x in a row When I tried to pull the txt file to my desktop, it tells me 'Cannot open" the full path of the spec'd file. When I try to open the log thru explorer, it tells me "access denied" even thou my account is admin level.
I have 2 questions if you don't mind:
1-can I try another way to read the log?
2-are you seeing more problems with HP notebooks? I am wondering if I should just install my Win7Proon the box. The longest period of productivity I've had since getting the new box & 8 has literally been 3 days before an update seems to break it again. Or does that seem too frequent to be just an OS issue and perhaps the hardware is also dodgy?
Sorry - that's prob more than 2 questions. I'd be SO grateful for any help. I don't know what to do at this point. Except to be extremely thankful my iPhone works
Thanks a mil in advance!!
