Hi there,
I'll start from introducing myself:
Toshiba Satellite C660-21Z
Version: PSC0QE-04X00CEN
Intel Core i3 M 370 2.4 Ghz
System x64
Windows 7 x64 Ultimate SP1
RAM 4Gb (one stick)
HDD Toshiba MK3275GSX 300 Gb (AHCI SATA Controller Mode)
My story:
I dropped my laptop while being switched on resulting instant HDD and RAM failure. I've got the replacement RAM and HDD (exact same I was hoping to revive my HDD and recover files by switching circuit boards - didn't help) and installed Windows 7 x 64 Ultimate, but it was running extremely slow. Just as for bhaskarreddy, pretty much every window I open, especially folders, Word 2010 and even Task Manager were none responsive for most of the time. While downloading all the software I use to have via uTorrent, the downloads stopped stating message (in torrent status bar) something like this: Error: Write disk could not be performed... full disk...I/O... bla bla bla... (free space was about 265Gb) So I thought it's HDD error, run Win7 HDD diagnostics- all good, then I went to your forum, and I thought before crying out loud I will follow soho62 recommendations, although I couldn't believe That could help, given new installed system. In fairness, CC cleaner did remove 500 odd MB, but when I proceeded to use Norton Power Eraser it said I need to reboot first. So I did, and never booted up again. So now I'm crying out loud! I'm not asking to help me to boot the windows again, 'cos I'm re-installing it as I type, but I do hope if you could give me a few pointers of what the heck I can do to solve this issue once new windows will be installed.
Thanks for trying.
