Startup repair doesn't repair: Prob sig 5 Autofailover / prob sig 7 badpatch

HD Sentinel drive health 100%
Chkdsk /f and /r didn't help

Minidump folder nothing logged since 2012

^ that seems to point to possible HD error, just about to try the Seagate tool, but not too hopeful on that picking up any problems. ... and that's a negative, mouse locks after clicking accept, and then the programs craps itself out to the command prompt.

Factory recovery next?

1348951 2013-07-15 23:03:00 Get something like HDAT2 and verify the drive health in SMART. If you find any big errors that's a good clue the drive is screwed.

Could be a virus. Try AVG bootable scan CD or something?

1348952 2013-07-16 06:07:00 Looks like that stop error may mean its got bad sectors on it. Try removing it then put it in a desktop then scan it for errors Speedy Gonzales (78)
1348953 2013-07-16 09:11:00 ^Will do.

It's beginning to look like something weird with the drive. HDAT2 continually giving drive not ready messages, and the bootable AVG CD had disk error 04, ax = 4235, drive fe and wouldn't load.

1348954 2013-07-16 10:10:00 Take the drive out and try in another machine if you can, check for loose connections. Maybe even the SATA controller is buggered... Agent_24 (57)

I'll go with buggered SATA controller, put another drive in and HDAT2 has the same errors. The drive worked fine in another PC, and no malware or bad sectors.

1348956 2013-07-17 11:34:00 It's not one of those Intel chipsets that had a known problem with the SATA controller failing? Agent_24 (57)
