Apparent Drive Problems

A few days ago, per the BSOD Crash Analysis posting instructions, I obtained a report on my system from V2 Log Collector. In another thread, a comment on that report observed that there were some drive errors. Examples from that comment:

An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk4\DR5 during a paging operation.
{Delayed Write Failed} Windows was unable to save all the data for the file \:$I30:$INDEX_ALLOCATION.
Failure status: A device which does not exist was specified.
The default transaction resource manager on volume P: encountered a non-retryable error and could not start.
The system failed to flush data to the transaction log. Corruption may occur in VolumeId: \\?\Volume{aae20b56-3001-4042-8080-6bf48c7965ca}, DeviceName: \Device\HarddiskVolume7.
The IO operation at logical block address 0x800 for Disk 3 (PDO name: \Device\000000d3) was retried.

I have attached an updated V2 report. I'm not sure how to effectively view or search that report, or what I might use instead, to isolate or highlight such errors. Their existence was a surprise. Since I haven't done anything, during the past few days, that (to my knowledge) would eliminate such errors, I assume the attached, updated report contains more of the same. Suggestions are welcome.

Please perform the following steps: (in sequence)



Make sure that images or share links are posted for all steps / tests.



1) Run Tuneup plus > post a share link

2) Create a new restore point:

3) Run Sea Tools Long generic test (all drives) > post images or share links





4) Run HD Tune (all drives) (run an old version so that it produces results for the whole drive)
a) Health
b) Full error scan




5) Open administrative command prompt and copy and paste:

chkdsk /b /v

Run these chkdsk switches on all drives using the syntax: chkdsk /b /v C: or chkdsk /b /v D: or chkdsk /b /v E: etc.

Make sure that the windows drive runs overnight while sleeping.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /b /v
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.
Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

Type: Y

Reboot as needed.




6) After completing all chkdsk /b /v run:

Make sure that this runs only after the prior three steps for each drive.



7) Run HD Sentinel (all drives) > post images or share links (do not run until posting results for each steps 3, 4, 5 and 6)

Hard Disk Sentinel - HDD health and temperature monitoring
a) Overview
b) Temperature
c) SMART



8) Please make sure that all of the above steps are performed in sequence

These steps / tests can be performed overnight while sleeping:

a) Sea Tools Long generic test
b) HD Tune Full error scan
c) Chkdsk /b /v

check your BIOS version

it maybe an idea to delete/disable the swap file.
restart the computer defrag/trim the drive.
run a error check on that drive.
both of these are available from the properties menu for that drive.

then reset the swap file and restart the system.
then see if there are anymore errors or BSOD.
best of luck, Steve ..
