| Having issues with this PC i’m fixing. It would boot into windows and only show black screen with mouse cursor. Tried a few fixes i googled. Changing file permissions, start-up repair, system restore (but no restore points). None of these worked. So did a scan for bad sectors, and it found some. Now from here i bought a new HD, ran chkdsk on the old HD, then cloned the old HD to the new HD. But the the problem still exists with the new HD. Tried swapping out VGA Cards too. Now i’m at a point where I’m trying everything which leads me to this. I’m doing a sfc scan on the drive and the log file is 3.5GB atm and rising. I’ve never seen a log file more than 50kb. Why is this file so large, or have i stumpled upon a bug.

It is a PC, not a laptop?
I’m pretty sure it is, the reason I ask is because you are right, the partition is usually 100mb in NTFS.
Did you delete all partitions during the install?
Make sure when you reinstall, you delete ALL partitions & format to NTFS.
W7 – Click on > Drive options (advanced) Then highlight each partition & hit > Delete.

Here are some examples of why you delete all partitions.
