I did uninstall PSP and ran chkdsk /r again. Event viewer shows no errors this time. However the log show I have had over 57,000 errors in the last 24 hrs.
Here is a screen shot of some of the errors I mentioned in my last post:
One other strange thing happened this time. I went to open Mozilla Thunderbird to check my email and I had to set up my account again. It was as if this was the first time I had used it. Very weird.

As in my previous post, I would recommend checking for malware. I notice that you are running NOD32 and if you are using the current version, it does have spyware protection… but I`m not positive about its ability to detect and remove malware. Perhaps you should make that your next process.

Regarding the 57,000 logged items… once things have settled, you can always archive the log and perform the clear operation to remove them from your history.

Again, also think about performing that Repair Install of W7

Edited: to correct the remark about you using NOD32… I misread ESENT for ESET (which is NOD32)

I installed version X2 also. It seemed to install fine but a message popped up that there was an update for X2. i tried downloading it from the message, as there was a link but nothing happened. I went to the Corel site and downloaded what I assumed, dumb on my part, assuming, was the same update. It was after trying to install this update that I got all the errors. I had changed the power options prior to this.
I just booted Windows 7 and event viewer said I already had 20 errors they are 455, 488, 1006, 7042.7040, 9000, 3030, and 8211 errors. Just what exactly is going on here?
Also I just got a message form Action Center that Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender both report that they are turned off. I am unable to start them.

Sure looks like a mess. About the only think I can suggest at this stage (other than a complete, clean install of W7) is to try:

[*]Uninstall PSP completely…[*]Run another chkdsk /r…[*]Perform a Repair install of W7

Assuming that you haven’t turned off MSE and Defender then something is amiss in that area. Perhaps Malware? In which case use you favourite scanner to detect any nasty beasts.

Insofar as those other errors are concerned, you did not provide any descriptors and so I can’t shed any light without knowing more specifics.

Back to you…

I installed Corel Paint Shop Pro and then tried to install an update. I got a message about not having the program installed or the wrong version for the up date or the wrong version of the update. I rebooted and looked at event viewer and there were about a 1000 55 errors . the next two time I rebooted Chkdsk /r ran. I havent checked it this afternoon yet to see what happens now.
The Corel website says Paint Shop pro is compatible with Windows 7. Soo why the errors and chkdsk run?

There are several versions of Corel Paint Shop Pro. The current one I have installed is PSP X2 and it installed fine. Which version are you trying to install?

I have found that sometimes turning off your AV scanner for the installation of some software is required. For example, installing my nVidia software/drivers requires me to turn off NOD32 for the install process.

In some other cases, right clicking on the install packet and selecting Run as Administrator helps.

Regarding the 1000 type 55 errors… was this before or after changing the power options?. My type 55 errors have not resurfaced since changing the power options.

Over to you…

I am pretty sure I know the answer to this, but if one doesn’t ask, one never knows.

I have an HP scanner, a Scanjet 5200cse. is there even a faint chance of finding a driver that will work with it and Win 7 64 bit.

The HP website says no drivers will be provided for Win 7.

Just a shot in the dark…but a few years ago when Vista came out, it was said that some Windows 2000 drivers would work in Vista. Now since Vista is close to W7 with regards to some (but not all) drivers, and if you are daring… you could try these:

When I clean installed Windows 7 last week, I was pleasantly surprised when two products which were not supposed to be supported in Windows 7 installed without any glitches and are performing as expected. The products? Ms Money 2007 and my old trusty PDA – Palm Pilot M515.

I am having the same issue as described in this thread. I will often get a “disk corrupted” error when I try to save a file during a Win 7 session. When I run chkdsk, I typically get a report like this: “Correcting errors in the master file table’s (MFT) BITMAP attribute.”

Check back in that thread for a post concerning changing the Power Options. The change has eliminated my 55 error… at least so far.

I read the log and the thing that stood out was this statement ” Windows has checked the file system and found no problems.” yet everything is running smoothly now. Did just running chkdsk /r fix the problem even though windows found no problems?

Did further research after my last 55 error and found a link that suggested changing the power options resolved the issue. I went to Control Panel | Power Options and selected the High Performance setting electing to use all the defaults. Haven’t had a 55 error since the last reported one yesterday at 11:47 AM. Knock on wood the system will remain stable.

Bob, FF doesn’t show the whole page, IE does. It’s the bit at the bottom that FF doesn’t show that you need.

The views in both IE and FF are the same. here’s the FF version:

I ran Windows 7 version of chkdsk /r I think. I checked “Automatically fix file system errors” and “Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors”. It seems to have worked because so far everything is running smoothly.
I know chkdsk creates a log, but I don’t know where to look for it. I would like to see what it says.

I performed a clean install of Windows 7 a few days ago and experienced the same NTFS corrupt issue. I used the same error correction routine you used (twice) and the problem was not there this morning on boot-up. Just checked the Event Viewer and found another occurrence timed 35 minutes after the initial morning boot.

This time I will use the command process with the chkdsk /r to see if the issue disappears.

Regarding your request for the chkdsk log… go to the Event Viewer | Windows Logs | Application and look for Wininit. Clicking on that entry will display the log.

Not sure what browser you are using but I can view the site in both IE and Firefox.
