    Check Disk will not run windows 7 home Pre


    On boot check disk starts and does not complete, states

    Could not complete due to recently installed software package

    Ran restore from advanced boot options, still get same error from check disk on startup.

    ran Scannow from command prompt, states corrupt files unable to fix some of them. Ran scannow 3 times.

    attached a copy of CBS log. I down loaded a copy of the win 7 X17-58997. ISO I just need to burn to DVD.

    Is there another way I can fix this? Or do I need to replace one at a time??

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Boot from the burned ISO (X17-58997). "repair computer". "command prompt"
    Determine the drive letter of windows (not necessary same as in win7!
    Code:
    diskpart
    list  vol
    exit
    Assume drive letter is D.
    Code:
    chkdsk/f  D:
    Errors? Repaired?

    Other steps here for Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Start.

    Start with HD diagnostics, System restore from the Disk's System Recovery Options, run Disk Check given above from Command Line there.

    Report back results, continue working through other steps.

    Aside from doing the above steps, why are you wanting to run chkdsk? I recently had this issue of it not completing and the drive, as it turned out, was bad. A scan with Western Digital Life Guard told me, "Too many errors".

    I've had that problem myself where a drive suddenly requires a chkdsk that will not complete. The way I recovered from it was to schedule a chkdsk.Disk Check step 11. I suspect that it is trying to do the chkdsk too late in the startup cycle whereas the scheduled one runs at the correct time.

    +1. Schedule Disk Check or if any interference or unbootable run Disk Check Option 2 from the Installer System Recovery Options or System Repair Disk Command Line.

    I ran X17-58997. ISO from a dvd and it did not work ( not sure if I did something wrong or not) So I ran HP recovery and reverted to factory set-up, all is good now. Thank-you all for your replies and advice.

    Glad you solved... all document lost?

    What happened after booting from burned ISO? DVD has a few folders and files on it... or just the file called X17-58997.ISO?

    You needed x86 (32bits) ISO???? In your system specs you say you have 32 bits!

    Backed up stuff I needed so no data lost.

    I set to boot from CD drive first and it acted like it was reading from drive for about 1 min or so and then booted from hard disk. I looked at the DVD and can see something was burned to the disk , but I could not see any thing on it when I tried to open the disk. It was a new DVD and that was the only data I put on it. I also verified the disk at the end of the burning so I don't know what I did wrong.
