Techno Button Master

I was playing grid when the power dropped out.. booted and windows was stuck at the welcome screen.. reset a couple times. Same.

A nice extended welcome, Thanks Microsoft

There is nothing different from before the power failure so probably broken file or something…

Booted into safe mode..(f8)

1. Cmd
2. Chkdsk c: /f
3. Yes (do it on next reboot)
4. Reboot
5. Let windows scan
6. let windows reboot
7. Fixed
8. Back to grid

If that failed I would look at the event log and work my way backwards..

It was most likley related to this setting

Enable for Faster Disks & Data Loss

It mentions it in the help section, Basically ticking these will give you more performance but at the cost of reliable data.. in my case I am not running exchange server on this machine so there is nothing I will loose except time.. in this case, around 10minutes

End

After some thoughts about this. I wonder how can such small and possibly anoying problems occur in the RTM version of Windows 7? or is it just me.. lets hope for Microsofts sake.
