    The compressed zip folder.


    More stuff.

    Included the Command Prompt page as it said it could not find some file.

    I ran rkill,
    then mrt /f:y
    then mse
    the I purchased a professional copy of Malwarebytes and ran it.

    Bottom line, no malware / virus reported.

    I was just typing a Post when it failed again.

    Is there a way to 'bump' this post as things are getting worse.

    Last night I had to run Check Disk on my "C" drive as a file was corrupt!

    Hi Mike,

    It's difficult to see where the command failed, parts of it seems to be cut off in the screenshot.

    Sorry for the delay in response, I'll have a look at the files as soon as I can.

    Could you describe what's going on on your system? I'd like to know what happened at the beginning.

    As my memory tells me:

    There are times where we get a message that Windows recovered from some catastrophic error.
    There are times where we actually witness the PC power itself down and restart.
    There was one time where something triggered a complete Disk Check of the entire C: drive.
    On several occasions the PC would go into what I call 'DOS' mode, displaying text screens like DOS.
    There are times where simple functions like Disk Cleanup or Defrag take an hour or so verses five minutes.

    I am not a techie but have thought the Power Supply or Hard Drive may be failing.
    Windows 'Create and format hard disk partitions' and Belarc shows the Disk as 'healthy'.

    That's what I remember has been happening for about two or three months.

    What happened just before it all started?

    Nothing that I am aware of.

    It has been a long time.

    It continues to happen!

    Since I last posted, I moved the Hard Drive from my HP 6300 to an HP 8300.
    Things went well overnight.
    This morning, the same Blue Screen with a message on it appeared.
    The message is very long and goes away quickly as Windows does a recovery.
    I will attach the message Windows presents after it recovers.
    I guess I can rule out a failing Power Supply.
    Does that just leave a failing Hard Drive and / or Windows?
    I will clone the Hard Drive today and replace the original.

    Is there any advice that I need to hear?

    Best regards,

    Mike Lynch
