Windows 10: Disk Space Error, 7-zip CRC error, install error, fail installation error code 1603

I have no idea if I am asking in the right place but here I go. I will write in detail the issues I have had and lead to where I am now. Specs I have a Dell XPS 8960, Microsoft Windows 11 Home, Model OXD433, Version A01, BIOS 2.6.0, with a RTX 4090, i9-13900k, 64Gb ram 4800mhz. 3 hard drives installed, one with 2000 gb ssd, another with 1000gb ssd and the other with 2000 gb hhd. Two of the hard drives I have added seperatley in different occasions.I originally I was playing Diablo 4 at max settings with raytracing and the game was crashing, found of foru

7-Zip CRC Error

That usually means the hard drive has errors, as in it's failing.

Try another usb cable to confirm if still crc errors.

 

7-Zip CRC Error

If the CRC is incorrect that means data is corrupted. CRC errors tend to reflect a failing drive. You may be in trouble because in order to correct a CRC error you need to correct that part of the file that is corrupted and since you have no other copy of the content, you're in trouble.

It's like saying (albeit very basically,) I stored a number on my computer. Now that number is wrong and I was to get it back but I have no idea what that number is. Simple fact is, it's gone considering CRC determines data integrity. CRC does offer some level of protection against data corruption but there must have been a significant number of errors to begin with to make it do this.

I usually get CRC errors on damaged optical disks or failing hard drives.

There is no replacement for maintenance and proper monitoring of your drives in mission critical environments.

 

7-Zip CRC Error

He is using 7-Zip, not Zip. *Wtf :wtf:

Agreed. Try checking out your SMART logs to see if your drive really is failing. CrystalDiskInfo does a pretty good job reading SMART through USB and RAID on Windows.
