Master Boot Record question
~ My desktop crashes overnight ... sometimes. It attempts to reboot, but halts at 'Verifying DMI pool data'.
(No idea why it crashes - it isn't consistent - it doesn't crash during daily use, and most likely a power flicker issue.)
~ I reboot using MiniTool Partition Wizard boot disc, rebuild the MBRs, re-order the HD boot priority and it usually fires up on the restart. PITA but there is no data loss (so far) so it's just a chore not a debacle.
~ I have 3 HDDs; 2 appear as masters and the other as slave. (I haven't checked the jumper settings).
The 1st question is: should I have more than 1 MBR?
The 2nd question is: why does the system not boot (when the mobo is supposed to scan all 3 drives for the boot info)?
