@gibbsy81 the cbs.log. is a protected system file you can only open it with a elevated command prompt. (and even then it not that happy)

it easier though to copy it to your desktop and then open it there with notepad.

it sounds like you have fixed the problem, are you still having issues with the pc since the reinstall.

Yeah i have been having this issue since the reninstall i have tried the tool that Samsung uses seatools and that has come up fine and so has the western digital and windows disk checkers im convinced it is a hdd issue that isn't being picked up by the disk checkers.
