  11. Hello everybody, I’m facing some trouble with Windows 8 Pro and USB disks in NTFS Everything works fine (reading, copying files) until I disconnect my disk: it still appears in the explorer and the devices manager The explorer starts going crazy as it still seems to try accessing it… After some time, all the Explorer processes running hang and I must reboot (hard reset as soft stays blocked on Windows closing) The issue occurs with USB keys, external hard drives or via docking stations but only for devices formatted in NTFS. The same key formatted in FAT32 works fine and can be disconnected with no trouble. I got the issue disconnecting the disk or ejecting it ‘properly’ I got an X79 chipset the motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-X79-UD3 and all its drivers are up to date. Here are a few tests I’ve performed: - Process hanging also appears with the management console if I try to uninstall the USB keys drivers (with the key connected) - After disconnecting my NTFS USB key, no new USB devices connected are recognized. They don’t appear in devices manager and if I try a ‘Scan for Hardware change’ the process stays stuck - I’ve tried to check with ProcessExplorer (sysinternals) if any process was using the file handle associated to my key before disconnecting it but nothing. ProcessExplorer stays stuck if I make another after the disconnection. - Issue also occurs in Safe mode where (normally) only generic drivers are loaded Any suggestions are welcome ^^ Thanks, Tchouty View the full article

  13. Original title:Error message when trying to install iTunes on Windows Vista I am trying to install the latest version of iTunes available in South Africa. I am using Windows Home Vista. I have downloaded the file itTunessetup.exe, but when I try to run the installation, I keep getting the same message 'network error when trying to read from C:WindowsInstalleriTunes.msi' I am at a loss to understand this - I am not much of a PC expert either. Any suggestions? Thank you View this thread
  14. I own an HP a6703a Pavilion. Garden variety, running VISTA HOME PRE. I have tried runing a chkdsk /v /f from the command line ( of course ). I receive a return message which says I cannot do this that I must do this in an ELEVATED LEVEL. I have no idea what this is. It doesn't on my DELL 5100 Tower, running XP Home version. Help me, please. BUZ/GROVE, OK View this thread
  15. I am running XP and Microsoft Security Essentials. I ran a full scan from my admin account a few hours ago, but when I sign in to my normal account, it says I am unprotected as I "haven't run a scan in a while", even though the MSE home page lists the last scan as just a few hours ago. I have noticed a few other odd behaviors (such as real-time protection turning itself off on one occasion). Do I have a problem? View this thread
  16. When I print e-mails in Windows Live Mail the left margin cuts off a letter or two. How can I adjust the margin? View the thread
  17. I was online and an alert came up from Microsoft Security Essentials that a severe threat had been detected. I clicked on my security icon and it was spinning/searching. When it stopped, I clicked on the scan history and it said that the malware could not be located but the result said that the threat had been removed. Do I need to worry that something has infected my computer and is floating around in there somewhere? View this thread

  21. my virus scan found a trojan virus it is in qurrantine should i delete it or leave it in there View this thread
  22. Got a phone call from a man claiming to be with Microsoft Live. Said a problem report from my computer to Microsoft showed that I had a trojan virus and they wanted me to allow them to do a live fix. This sounds bogus to me, but gave me the number 315/277-9899 to call to verify and said to look under Windows Live Support to verify them. It sounds Fishy, and they keep calling. I have Norton Anti-Virus on my system and thought that would catch any trojan viruses, but had one a couple of years ago that actually deleted Norton from my programs. It was months before I caught that it wasn't updating and went and looked and Norton had been uninstalled from my system. So I am kind of paranoid that Norton might not catch everything. Is this for real? View this thread
  23. When I turned on my computer today, the MSE icon was displaying orange. I opened MSE and was advised my computer may be at risk. It then told me that "You haven't done a Full scan lately" (or something like that) and advised that I do one. Then I noticed that the weekly scan had been completed yesterday morning as scheduled. Just to be safe, I ran another scan today, just to check if something had snuck in last night when I was online. Today's scan was clean and the icon displayed green. Why does the orange icon appear when it's obviously been scanned? View this thread
  24. My old XP has run its Network Wizard, and it's prepared to share a drive and a printer. My new 7 (not prpared for a "Home Network") is able, via my explicit \ coding, to map the XP disk correctly. However, when I add a new printer (XP's) to 7, it searches the network (direct EtherNet cabling), finds the shared printer, and then refuses to complete the process because "a spooler is not started/running". I searched the indexes of both of my Dummies books (XP & 7), and I find no reference to the term 'spooler' in any context. What is 7 looking for, and where can I find it?
