Windows Boot up Issue

Run CHKDSK a few more times for sure .....

I also always disable Link State Power Management in the Power Scheme Options as it used to cause issues with my Plextor SSD in this computer but have seen reports of the same thing with the Samsung drives.

I guess you don't want to hear I have RMA'd (1) Asus X99A , (3) X99A-3.1's , (2) 5820k CPU's and (2) set of Ram since Feb ? and I am currently battling a X99A II :) so much for my 1st new Comp in 4-5 yrs ....

Are you one the newest X99 Bios ? some had new Intel RST OROM's in them too.

What Sata Driver (AHCI/RAID) are you using ?

Does 850 Pro have latest Firmware ? some had a bug in TRIM that caused Data Corruption last yr I think

that should keep you busy for a few hours :) ....night.

Hi ,
those 4 CHKDSK files are clean but they were run in windows without the /F switch so I am not sure it has done all the checks that a Boot-Time scan does or not ?

Any weird errors the latest few days ?

Spoke to someone who had a 3.1 too , he didn't see your issues but preferred the 2101 bios on his 5820K until he got a Broadwell Chip , then had to use the 3101 Bios like you. 2101 was what i was using too until it died etc and got RMA'd.

Hi Kbird

I am currently running another SSD with the operating system on it. The SSD with the issues is still installed (as drive E/) and has been reformatted and has a few programs installed on it, to monitor it.

Attached below is CHKDSK logs of the E/ drive, using the f parameter.
At the moment I have no issues with the new C/ drive!

Do you require CHKDSK of the new drive.

Kevin

Looks like it is at it again! Went out for an hour came back booted up the PC. It powers up, then stops. Lights are still on the mother board etc. Had to shut down, then power back up, then it then boots OK.

Oh damn..... well with my issues with the X99A-3.1, I would say perhaps you have a MB problem , did you look at the MB diagnostic Code on the LED Board before rebooting ? can be helpful.....

what USB devices are plugged in ? see my posts in this thread about that....... I used to get similar issues every second boot , switching the xHCI controller to Auto help with that issue, mostly......

The 3 new CHKDSK files.... 1st one is showing security descriptor Errors again, (fixed 0x9) ) no MFT Errors though so my guess is you reformatted the drive , made it E:\ and it was ok for a day or two then corruption started again. More research needed on SD Errors perhaps.

See if the new C: drive has SD Errors on it too in which case I'd suspect the Sata Controller/Driver , so possibly a MB issue ?

KB

Maybe the SD Errors are due to TRIM on the SSD ? , if it isn't enabled it could be leaving "garbage" behind , though that maybe a separate issue , to the powerup issues you are having...

Win 8 and Win10 new CHKDSK switches

New options of Chkdsk in Windows 10 and Windows 8 you need to know

Kbird

Will look into those and will post back.
