Windows 7 died on me today. - Hardware & Software

You should be able to but you've tried that's how you'd repair it. It didn't work so you pretty much just have to reinstall. [editline]11th May 2011[/editline] Also your avatar is fucking sweet. Just felt I should share that.

[QUOTE=moesislack;29755821]That's [B]FUCKING[/B] amazing why so few views I don't know.[/QUOTE] Spread it around! I saw in the stats for it, it was posted on 4chan. I'm gonna make a miniseries about it when my computer gets fixed. Anyway, the plan is this: 1. Backup everything i can 2. Get a friend to help me disassemble the computer 3. Send mobo back 4. Wait for it to come back 5. Buy 1TB drive 6. Assemble computer with RAID1 7. Live happily

Lists are always best.

I highly do not recommend RAID0 for any use unless you keep a backup of everything on the array. RAID0 means that if either drive fails, you lose ALL of your data. You cannot get it back. I run on RAID1 on my desktop, and RAID5 on everything else. RAID0 isn't even RAID. RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks. RAID0 is not redundant in any sense of the word.

[QUOTE=moesislack;29753464]The harddrive is fine it's Microsoft being bad at Kernel drivers.[/QUOTE] If that was true, why would it just randomly start happening? And why is it not widespread?

[QUOTE=Giraffen93;29753633]Because then the data will be spread out everywhere, since i use the desktop alot, and install all programs to C:\, and the space given is never enough, or it's too much. Can't repair, watch the video or the second image. My working buddies here say that i should make a ~50g partition and put programfiles on d:, makes sense.[/QUOTE] I also use my PC also a lot. I have tons of Programs (not GAMES!) installed on my SSD (D:\ Partition). Everything is fine. I do not use the crappy "My Documents" folder -> Everything is fine. I install games to my HDD instead of my SSD (E:\ partition) everything is fine. 14 GB left of my system partition (35 GB total). With a fresh Windows 7 and without Visual Studio 2010, it is even more than 25 GB free space. So in short: The OS should always be on a separate partition. Yes, your suggested 50 GB is fine but it could be less. Especially if it's on a SSD, where space = money. But the thing which is always shitty is having just one partition and installing everything to C:\

I think i'll do this: C: - 100GB D: - 845GB And change %PROGRAMFILES% to D:\, this would work, right? I hate having a red bar in explorer. [editline]11th May 2011[/editline] So.. should i buy [url=http://www.inet.se/artikel/4303589/1tb-samsung-spinpoint-f3-hd103sj]the same[/url] drive or [url=http://www.inet.se/kategori/110/3-5-stationara-]another brand[/url] for my new raid setup?

Exact same thing happened to both me and my friend today since a recent update I got last night, so I booted up this morning to be greeted with a blue screen, I booted it a few more times and it did the windows repair thing, reported no problems then booted anyway.

I got my backup down to ~30gb, so i'll try to disassemble the computer when i feel like it.
