There are all the error details. |

| 1403172 | 2015-06-19 05:53:00 | System readiness tool I assume? Worth a go, for sure. Is there a specific issue you are having with this PC, or is it just being odd in general? Well it started out supposedly very slow. Very slow, about 15mins to the desktop with the icons loading one at a time. :eek: CCleaner found about 6gig of temporary files but couldn't clear them so I dumped the ones belonging to IE physically and CCleaner handled the others. Other programmes half loaded and stopped but some started again if left alone. Some even posted a Not Responding message if you tried to close them but then carried on and loaded. :confused: At the moment this KB947821 is almost there on the progress bar but hasn't moved for 10 minutes. Wainui, I haven't pursued the log yet because looking at some posted in the links you provided made me think War & Peace was a paper back and having read and inwardly digested I'd be none the wiser. :) |

| 1403173 | 2015-06-19 22:18:00 | Update: KB947821 System Readiness Tool won't load. The progress bar gets almost to the end but then sits there. Cancel doesn't work either so the only way out is to close the whole computer and force closedown. Is it possible on Win7 to do a repair install that leaves the likes of documents and photos? |

| 1403174 | 2015-06-19 22:41:00 | You can do a repair install on W7, but you have to be able to boot into windows normally to do it. Have a read of www.sevenforums.com Warning: Done it a couple of times But sometimes it can get part way through and fail, or actually wipe everything, if this happens then theres no way back. Best to make a full image of the Drive first, ideally you would put the image back onto another drive before trying to repair just to make sure the backup has worked as well, then run the repair install on the original |
