bcd/bcdedit problems and others after Acronis DD11

Please check State: [5] Waiting for completion if it still exist.

• after reboot
• just after creating restore point
• 15 minutes after creating restore point

Don't know if it's normal but I never saw it on my laptop.

Once again check you event log for errors. atapi errors?

Why did you do a reapir install??? Eventid 9 is just a problem with the driver! Solution: C300 Disk Freeze-ups in Windows 7 solved... - Crucial Community

I advised a Repair Install and then if necessary Clean Reinstall because there is clearly a deep level of corruption in the OS which will not be solved by running endless commands in another 10 page thread that leads nowhere.

If the Repair Install did not solve the Restore Points corruption it means it is not within the OS since that was reinstalled, but a program setting which is carried over during a Repair Install.

You can continue to suffer through another one of these ten page threads running endless commands which may patch one problem to then have another pop up a day later as you've been experiencing, or you can prepare now to get the vastly superior Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 following the same steps in this tutorial to install and maintain it perfectly. Then save a backup image so you never have to reinstall again.

Even better do a clean install as dual boot and test. I think the problems are hardware related!

That's a good idea. Shrink C by about 20gb in Disk Mgmt: Partition or Volume - Shrink

Boot the Win7 installer to Clean Reinstall to the new space allowing the installer to format the partition.

Install and set it up according to best practices in tutorial only so you have a perfect baseline install, then see if problems replicate.

However this test will still lack a cleaned boot sector which may also be interfering. Diskpart Clean Command

What hardware do you think could cause these problems?

State: [5] Waiting for completion
for ever? even after 1 hour wait and doing about nothing? Also after a reboot?

Still Yes, an atapi and volsnap errors under have disk load?

Please do what was advice in port #104 to prove problems asre also there on a fresh win7
But most important is ... make full backup to be sure everything has been saved!

So make it dual boot with a fresh install
