    Running a chkdsk on a mates laptop, and it seems to stick on the following for a while (about two to three days), before it reboots, and tries to do a repair.

    I'm guessing it'll need a new repair of Windows, although I'm wondering should I bother installing on the current disk, or should I just my mate to buy a new drive?

    Running the chkdsk, as the system repair keeps failing, and/or not repairing the issue. System has been getting to the repair loop after it tried to do some Windows updates.

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    Did you check the hard disk for problems / failure? Hook the HDD up to another PC or boot up from a live linux usb or something like that with hard disk test programs on it. I find HD Tune to be good.

    Truth be told, have been lazy in that regard. Shall take the HDD out tomorrow, and run CrystalDiskInfo.
