Feb 8, 2010I can't afford to lose any of my data (who can?), I'd like to have something on my laptop that monitors the hard drive - and any external USB drives. Free is good but I also want quality. Perhaps some readers have suggestions for software for me? Don't worry, I keep an external hard drive for backup and use it often. But, it wouldn't
hurt if I had something to monitor my drives. The external hard drives crap out to often and leave me without a backup until I replace it.
System Health [Diagnostic] Report
Oct 31, 2009After running the System Health Report from here;
System Health Report
at the System Diagnostic Report, I get a warning advising that the scan failed to detect running anti-virus, anti-spyware etc. protection, here and yet at Start>Control Panel>Security Centre, all protection requirements are shown as up and running, here
is there any way that I can get the scan to recognise the Security protection setup, and so include it in the System Diagnostic Report? I've had no problems with viruses, malware or spyware. This is purely an administrative issue to try and get the System Diagnostic Report to give a true account of the system.
Diagnostic Policy Service Not Working
Mar 23, 2008I have the Diagnostic Policy Service (DPS) set to automatically start, but it never shows that it's running. When I try to start it manually, it starts and then stops with a message that says that some services just stop when they are not in use by other programs. There are no error messages on the Event Viewer that are related to this. (Just informational messages showing that it started and another showing that it stopped). This service used to work, but for some unknown reason just decided to quit functioning. Does anyone have a clue as to what's happening? I've Goggled it and have found others that have the same problem, but no solutions were located.

Apr 4, 2009Okay, so I've had this HP Pavilion with Vista 64 bit less than a week (see specs below) and it's much much faster than my old Dell model [with XP] BUT today I was running a scheduled Hardware Diagnostic and it took like 30-40 min. and towards the end of it I tried to change the Power management so it would not go to Screen Saver mode (as it already had) and when I tried to do so, it took like 3 min. for it to open the Control Panel, 3 more minutes to open the Power Options dialogue, 2-3 more minutes to open the sub-menu there, and so forth - altogether about 8-9 minutes to do this simple task of changing Power Options while running hardware diagnostics.
I can understand that Hardware Diagnostics might take a lot of the computer's resources, but THIS is ridiculous! It was like going back to Windows 98 with 256MB RAM. Problem is, I have this*, so it shouldn't be this slow! Should it??? :
*Pavilion a6750y Desktop
AMD Phenom X4 9650 quad core processor
8gigs PC2 6400 DDR2 SDRAM
750 gig SATA Hard Drive (7200 rpm) (with about 650 gigs of space left!)
ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics with 256mb memory
2MB L2 _ 2MB shared L3 Cache memory
Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit
Is there a way I can tweak my memory or ? to make this not happen? Or does my computer have a serious problem?

Jul 29, 2009I ran Autoruns for Windows and under Task Scheduler it has Windows Disk Diagnostic User Resolver with a Red Circle with a White X inside of it. Image Path C:WindowsSystem32dfdwiz.exe
What concerns me most is that it is "Unticked" to autorun.
a. Should I have this item ticked to run?
b. If so what has caused it to become unticked and now apparently is not running?
c. What are the consequences of placing a tick back beside it to enable it to run?
In the past few days I had some erratic computer problems, but has now seemed to have settled down.
Memory Diagnostic Results: Completed Rebooted Back Windows
May 8, 2008I ran the Memory Diagnostics tool and after it completed and rebooted back into Windows, I didnt see any results. Where do you see the results of the test? I'm trying to diagnose this problem where my PC is rebooting at random, but I can't determine if it's a memory problem or not. So where can I find the results of this test?
View 7 Replies View RelatedDigidesigns M-box 2 And Pro Tools!?
Mar 9, 2008Lately I bought a new nice laptop with a strong cpu and lots of ram. The reason was, that a wanted to use it for both gaming, programming, designing and recording music.
This other day, I finaly had enough saved up for buying the M-Box 2 with Pro Tools software. At this point, I realised, for my big dissapointment and confusement, that it wasn't supported for my Vista system?
I learned, that Digidesign doesn't support Vista Home Basic, and overall doens't support 64 bit systems!? Ok, maybe this is Digidesign's problem, but then again - if I had known this before I bought my laptop, I would surely have bought a mac instead, so at that time it gets your problem.
My question is therefore: Why is M-Box 2 and Pro Tools not supported for x64 Vista systems, and why only a couple of x32 systems? This is simply not good enough, and I really must underline my dissapointment in this case.

May 20, 2008It reads in part "Ironically, the new operating system has been hailed by
Microsoft as the most secure version of Windows to date. However, recent
research conducted with statistics from over 1.4 million computers within
the ThreatFire community has shown that Windows Vista is more susceptible to
malware than the eight year old Windows 2000 operating system, and only 37%
more secure than Windows XP," Clausen said. "
DAEMON Tools Not Working
Apr 26, 2007I installed the 64 bit version of DAEMON Tools (the 32 bit version won't even install), and it gives me this error when I try to run it that says:
Initialization error 7.
This program requires at least Windows 2000 with SPTD 1.37 or higher.
Kernel debugger must be deactivated.
What are they talking about? I'm using Vista x64, and this is the Vista x64 version. What is the kernel debugger, and how do I deactivate it (and do I even want to)?

Mar 31, 2008I was poking around and noticed the following: Administrative Tools > Services (%SystemRoot%system32services.msc). However the following exists as well: (%SystemRoot%SysWOW64services.msc). So, is Vista 64 by default using the 32bit versions, or are the 64bit version in system32 as well? Note: When I run both neither have the "*32" which I'm assuming is a flag for 32bit support.

Oct 17, 2009I have a sound trigger for the 'Open program' event in Vista Basic sp2 x32 When my computer is idle and I "here" a program open the only thing I have to go by is the time it occurred. If I want to go to Event Viewer in Administrative Tools and see what this event was that triggered the event sound I'm overwhelmed with a bunch of categories and sub-categories. In order to find what opened at the specific time I need to check each category and sub-category. That is a real pain in the ass. I find no search capabilities in Event Viewer unless I've missed it. Is there some way of making a hunt for a specific time easier in Event Viewer? Or, is there some 3rd party software with the capability to sort all events by data and time??
