Hello,
I'm not sure if this is the right section, but a couple of weeks ago I got an error saying something along the lines of "WINDOWS HAS ENCOUNTERED A FATAL ERROR AND WILL RESTART IN ONE MINUTE". I restarted into safe mode and ran chkdsk, and it gave me this error:
"The master file table's (MFT) BITMAP attribute is incorrect.
The Volume Bitmap is incorrect.
WIndows found problems with the file system.
It asked me to run CHKDSK /F, which I did, and the computer has been running fine since. Except today, which is why I'm making this thread.
I went AFK for a few minutes and came back to my computer off. Just randomly. There was no error so I can't be sure what it is, but I'm guessing it's related to the MFT. Is this a serious issue? How can I fix it?
My specs:
CPU: AMD FX 8150
RAM: 10.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 1333MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard: Gigabyte 2AC8
GPU: 3072MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series (HP)
Hard drive: 1863GB Hitachi HDS723020BLA642 SCSI Disk Device (SATA)
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit
PSU: SeaSonic M12II 620w
Case: NZXT Phantom 630
I just upgraded to the case late last year, and I noticed the SATA cables were a bit short. Could this be an issue?
