Locked BSOD ERROR Fat file system

[S.Prasanna Venkatesh]

hi guys recently i have this fat file system BSOD error Start up repair cant fix it a advice could really be helpful and also battery drains soon and when playing games heats up fast and hangs and while general usage it warms up fast

ACER NITRO 5 AN515-31-58SH (CORE I5- 8250U / 8GB RAM / 1TB HDD / 15.6 IPS / 2GB NVIDIA MX150 / Windows 10 OS ) SHALE BLACK

this is the screen shot of the problem

Let's start from zero, it will help you more and will be faster.

1. When you say BSOD, is too generic. Can you please post a screenshot or at least tell us the error code? The description you gave can mean 100 different things.

2. How long one has a laptop and how they did the charging of the battery can lead to long or short battery life. In short, there are certain practices that one must follow when they have a (gaming?) laptop. For example, never leave your laptop on permanent charge and remove the battery when its plugged for long periods of times, in general, don't let the battery go below 10% several times etc.
One thing you can do is let windows tell you a report of the battery (yes they can do that) by opening a command prompt or PowerShell and typing
powercfg /batteryreport /output MYFOLDER\mybatteryreport.html where MYFOLDER = a folder where you want the report to be saved.
After that, you will get a report similar to this:

3. Maybe you need to open the laptop and dust it off. The way you describe it looks like you will have a lot of dust on the fans which help increase the heat as the fans become less efficient. Open up the laptop case (or ask a friend) and get a compressed air can. Ideally, check the CPU/GPU thermal paste (if you know how) and replace if need be. Needless to say, you can also get a special cooling dock for laptops such as the one below. Remember tho that modern laptops, in general, do heat up a lot at full use (gaming) partly because of the "fake" TDP values of CPUs as well as inadequate cooling solutions.

Hope it helped

yeah many laptops claim they have good thermal solution but the reality is not all true the truth is only few laptops have good thermal solutions and yesterday when turning on laptop this issue occurred this the third time it happened and this is my laptop cooler

is this ok or should i change it

Sadly it looks like you have either 1 very big issue or 2 big issues and I'm not sure which one is better.

Volume Manager (volmgr.sys) is a system driver which handles the logical part (file system...) of disks etc.
Fat File System Bsod is a type of Bsod that is related to hard disk issues which includes anything from corrupt files and file system to bad sectors and /or driver issues.

The problem is that normally those 2 errors are VERY rare to pop concurrently and sadly either of those has an easy solution and the steps that you need to do are many in which case I would advise you to use google to find step by step guides on how to perform those tasks.

Before you start tho, first make sure you unplug ANY other device except the mouse, especially if its an external hard disk and see if the laptop boots. If it does then there is a software (driver) or hardware incompatibility that you need to solve. If you installed something recently that may be the cause of those errors, a system restore might just do the trick fine.

Now after you do the above, and always best to do from safe mode or a PE boot disk or win 10 installation disk :
1. Search for how to fix your disks for file system errors and/or corrupt files and physical hard disk errors (probably chkdks etc as @00Proteus00 showed above), for example google fix corrupt files windows 10.
2. Update your system and device drivers as there might be an issue there
3. Run sfc /scannow to possibly refresh corrupt windows installation if there is an issue there.

If the above seems complicated (they can be) a quick way is to save your files... and just reinstall windows. This time though you will add a driver and device at a time and make sure they work with no errors.

If you keep getting errors then sadly its a hardware issue with either a bad hard disk or a RAM stick which means you have to check both.

I can't get to more detailed steps as it would take several pages, but you can find guides with images etc on the web.

Best of luck.


PS, your laptop cooler looks very good which makes me worry more if you still get high temps with that cooler... time to dust the fans

Will try it out

The bsod rarely comes

 

[Spycrawler Nightfire]

have a look at this video

 

[S.Prasanna Venkatesh]

okie will try out the solutions like you said

 

[S.Prasanna Venkatesh]

hi admins you can close this thread my new pc has arrived so i will use that from now on

 

[Mr. Spacely]

@S.Prasanna Venkatesh Thanks bud. Thread completed.
