Disk corruption dual booting Win 7 and Win 10
Posted: Fri May 01, 2015 2:57 am
I have Win 10 and Win 7 on separate harddrives and all partitions of each
are hidden from the other. Win 10 is on Harddrive 0 and Win 7 is on
Harddrive 1, with the swap enabled. Whenever I have been in Windows 10 and
later boot to Win 7 using Bing, the C partition needs to be checked for
errors. Most times it finds none but sometimes it does and at least one
time it would not allow even a diskcheck, saying it couldn't get control of
the drive due to a recent program installation. (I had installed no
programs) The only way I finally got it checked and fixed was to unhide it
for Win 10 and then have Win 10 check it. It said it had no errors but then
found errors on it's own C partition. When I rebooted into Win 7, the disk
check problem was gone but then the Win10 drive reported errors, which were
eventually fixed and it booted. Of course, the next time I went back to Win
7, it again had to check the drive, but at least this time the check worked.
What could be causing this considering that the drives are hidden from one
another?
Thank you.
