Hi all,
I did experince file corruption problem including corrupted files, loss of files,
corrupted hibernation file... for years on my system. I thought it was Window's bug
or it was aging problem of my pretty old system.
I have download patches, latest drivers and changed registry but it don't solve the
problem. I did backup my system registry files to restore my system in case there
was system file corruption.
I used to overclock by CPU (600@927), overclock my RAM (CL2=>CL3) and optimized my
mainbroad. I do run through stability and burn in testes to ensure that my system
is "stable", so I did not think it would any data corruption problem.
Fortunately, I turned out to find this forum and some posts indicated that the problem
may be caused by setting in mainbroad. So did the following change;
1. Restored all the default settings of my mainbroad
2. RAM changed back to CL3
The data corruption problem went away and I can now hibernate my computer (no hibernate
file corruption anymore). I can now even overclock my CPU to 945MHz and the system
still run stable without file corruption problem.
That is my own experience and it may just happen to be good for my own computer configuration.
Hope this would provide some hints for you guys to solve the problem.
