Tom,

Curious thing. I ran Sysnative's SFCfix and it only reported 4 items that it couldn't fix. That seemed odd, so I ran it all again. Same result. So, this morning I registered with Sysnative and posted my case in their forum including the SFCfix and SFC /scannow logs and the whole background. In their instructions, they tell us to expect 5 days before hearing a response. Meanwhile, I've moved to the backup drive which continues to hum along just fine. BTW, I did try restoring the bad drive from a system image created on the good drive. Windows on the bad drive refused to recognize it. I'll report back here as soon as I head anything.  Thanks again for all your help. I'll be in touch. Jim

Yes. Bad choice of words.

Good morning,

I'd tried the Installation CD FIX without success and also a variant of the MSI script, but the rest, I will start working through the list and will be back with you. Thanks again,

Jim

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your quick response. I generally keep my TEMP folder and Recycle bin pretty clean, but went ahead and took them both to zero; then ran ESET. I didn't see anything I didn't recognize.  Still all the same problems. That said, something that might be helpful: I set up two computers here at the same time 2 years ago that are basically identical but for the the drive size (1.5TB [Main] vs 2TB [Backup]). The second is mostly just a backup of the first. I'll call them Main and Backup. We're working on the Main. When I run SFC on the Main, I get 14 pages of stuff it couldn't fix. When I run SFC on the Backup, it's totally clean. I've attached the Main's SFC log for your consideration.

Aside from that, what would you like me to try next?

Thanks so much for your help.

Jim

Win 7 Pro 64 bit with SP1 Intel Core dual, 8Gb 

Started when I noticed running slow. Slow boot, slow browse, lots of updates were failing. 80070005 errors, wouldn't load "some" new programs. Won't load any anti-virus scanners. Won't do driver updates.

Tried running windows_repair-aio, (including in safemode), but time out after five starts.  To follow is what I've done before trying .
Defraf is done automatically.
Installed all the Verified MS fixes I could find for 80070005. Some took, some not.
Chkdsk - took hours but looked normal
SFC /scannow  (3 times with reboots) took hours - many items couldn't fix....about 100 pages. Code I'm not familiar with.
RKill - ran but nothing found.
Ran MBAM (renamed) from remote computer. Wouldn't run.

Scan with MS Security Essentials - clear

Ran RE-Image - froze during analysis. No results available.

DISM - returned: my version of Windows not familiar with any of the typical parameters.

Installed MS standalone MSI installer from MS archive site.

reran Windows updates. A couple took including one rollup, others provided no change. Many still failed. Didn't keep track of which took.

Plenty of free space on drive.

Found your post for changing DNS and ran your script. No change that I could detect.

ran windows_repair-aio one more time, still timed out afer 5 attempts.

Can you help? Thanks!  Jim
