Windows 10: What can I do with a Bogus reboot

I do
sfc /scannow
Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.
There is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete. Restart
Windows and run sfc again.


I have rebooted my computer 500 times, but nothing changes. What could be wrong?

Hi,

PC reboots (no BSOD) on CPU stress

Hi fellow TPU members,

not too long ago, the box my gf's PC was transported in gave way on the stairs. Yes, you got it right, that sent a PC tumbling down a flight of steps alright.

Stuff broke. Also, stuff remained intact somehow.

I bought her a new case, new CPU cooler and we removed the floppy drive, so far so good. But the PC started crashing for no apparent reason, without a BSOD.

I tested:

• Memtest86+, left overnight, 0 errors
• Scanned the HDD for errors, nothing there
• Left FurMark burning up the GFX card and drawing some power, no problems there
• Ran Ubuntu from a Live CD doing nothing special, didn't crash
• Ran OCCT, Linpack, Prime95, all 3 caused reboots within minutes
• Oh, and I disabled "Restart on error" so I'm sure it's not a BSOD.

Now, I can still try and test something CPU intensive on Ubuntu, but my guess is the CPU didn't survive.
Before I do anything drastic like whippin' out the magic wallet and get her a new AMD quad, is there anything I didn't see?
I'm guessing the motherboard could be borkered as well, but can I check that other than replacing the CPU with a working one?
Any suggestions on which proggies I can use from an Ubuntu Live CD to stress the CPU?

 

Bogus Hotmail "1 Unread" message indicator (WM 6.1)

Running Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional on a Verizon Wireless XV6800 device. My phone is displaying a bogus Hotmail 1 Unread message indicator, and I can't get rid of it. When there are no unread messages, the indicator nonetheless shows on the Today screen,
at the bottom of the main Hotmail messages screen, and also to the right of Inbox in my Hotmail folders list. So far I have cleared all of my messages, powered down, done a soft reboot, and pulled the battery. No luck. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks! Eric
