And I'm back! Hey Usasma, hope you're well! Basically, laptop was fine for a few days and tbh when it's on it is still ok running. But, it's lost the ability to wake up after sleep and i have to hard reboot/it reboots itself. Also im back to consistently 3minute boot times. Also, what to make...

Checking file system on C: The type of the file system is NTFS. A disk check has been scheduled. Windows will now check the disk. Stage 1: Examining basic file system structure ... 371712 file records processed...

Cheers Usasma, I have pasted the results of the scan from yesterday at the bottom of this reply. I think I will live with it for now! Hopefully next few updates are okay, and I don't get any deterioration in performance. This is the longest it has been this stable, ready to get into heavy...

Thanks Usasma, the chkdsk /f /r i did the other day did seem to make a difference (albeit not on the ntps error). How can I access the report to show to you? To be fair, Ive only just felt okay enough with system stability to continue music and uninstalling Native Instruments would disrupt...

Yupyup I've been very vigilant with that Usasma, currently it's only asking me to update 'online chat consultation settings' and I really don't think that's important? That Seagate test I just did.. what were you looking to see? Re: that NTFS error, I found more pages (not many compared to...

Thanks Usasma! It passed..

[sorry for multiple messages!] The error I get is: 'The default transaction resource manager on volume \\?\Volume{46259fbc-070d-4d22-b329-aebee67c11a8} encountered a non-retryable error and could not start. The data contains the error code.' And I just found this...

UPDATE ii: Ran chkdsk /f /r again and it lasted about three hours. Since then boot time has been super fast but the NTFS error still shows in event viewer every boot (quick start disabled ofcourse as hibernate just kills power on attempted boot after shutdown) Also, I found that I cannot...

Thanks Usasma you have been very helpful! I ran the chkdsk before and on boot it flew to 100% in about two seconds so I'm guessing not much happened! If it's a recurring file error I can live with that... If it's a failing hard-drive I'll hopefully know by the end of today. I have Macrium Images...

Thank you Usasma, theres hundreds of music programs downloaded from sites (Licensed) or from disc so still weary of that route - Also if the issue is driver related, is it likely it comes back again? In your experience, how much of an issue is the NTFS at boot really? I read that it could be...

UPDATE: Hey Usasma, ran the DISM and Scannow etc, everything came clean. I updated a bluetooth driver, after that when i put laptop to sleep, it wouldnt power off anything and i had to do a hard poweroff. Then everything was fine again. Getting NTFS error everytime i boot - wonder how much of...

Hey Usasma, thanks for the reply. I did run sfc /scannow (without the exe though?) last night and it took two scans for it to show clean. The system has been pretty stable since - it does wake up from sleep fine (the only thing is I cant do stuff like click on an icon and presst Alt 4 and...

Hey Usasma, had a look at the hardware diagnostics and I really am out of my comfort zone there in regards to what to do. I can pass my laptop to outsourced IT company at work on Friday who said they will run harddrive/motherboard etc diagnostics throughout a day and let me know results. Thing...

Hey Usasma, got your email in the morning on the phone, thank you. Had a chance at work in the afternoon to boot my laptop and lo and behold, went into boot loops for an hour (error starting windows -> restart). Would try to detect and fix errors/ i'd every few boot attempts use advance settings...

Thanks Usasma, I thought I'd done it from setup but now I'm second guessing myself. I've just downloaded the Setup file (did already have one in downloads) but I installed through setup just now - Basically, it said it was updating/repairing files, went into a 'repair' graph and then my system...

Oh my goodness, I am so sorry Usasma, I attached an old zip file. So sorry to make you go through that, I have attached the one form last night now. AVG got uninstalled a while back. this is the intel link...

Ah sorry put it wrong section earlier, thanks for moving

Hey folks, been having some issues and have attached the SF diagnostic zip. My system is Windows 8.1, Samsung notebook, i7, 8gb RAM and 1tb hard-drive. I updated the Intel Rapid Storage Driver but alas it is not helping the situation of BSOD on waking up from sleep. Basically, the...

Hi folks, I would really appreciate some help as Masterchief disappeared on me (stopped responding, saw he was still active) and then a couple of days later I saw he got banned. I will paste below a message I sent to someone else who hasn't been able to figure this out for me. I'm not the most...

Hey Master Chief. If you could just help me resolve this IRST issue, I'd be super happy. Many thanks
