Wa HAY!!!!!
Yes it can standby now. no problem.[2thumbsup]
And you did mention that bit "If I needed to" but you didn't say I already had it in the framework folders I outlined So I thought that was something else.
OK off to get updates now.
Should be able to do that,
Can I just use the last...
OK sorry we are not there yet.
I carried the netfxupdate.exe change to .OLD.
For some reason certain files had their extensions hidden.
I always like to see extensions so thank you for the instructions on that. :-)
I rebooted, then went to the link to download v2 BUT on attempting installation I...
a couple of questions
1: Within the V1.1.4322
I can't find the ntfxupdate .exe file I only see a ntfxupdate file
Windows would not change the name.probably because it was NOT the .exe file. So where can it be.
I searched through all the framework folders.
I have 5 folders in Framework...

Hi I eventually got time to do the Hijackthis element of your help.
NOW do you want me to actually paste the log file within this space or add it as an attachment?
If the latter please explain how.
I have it saved as hijackthis.log100826.txt - notepad.
Thanks so much.

Oh Thank you. I must admit I didn't look at the dates. That was rather remiss of me, sorry.
BUT now more questions.
If I turn it off what effect would it have on my laptop. I mean would it not find new updates automatically.
What exactly is it updating?
Please can you tell me how to turn off the...
HI Kiv1611.
Well avira was another AV that caused the same problem, see that link I posted.
MAybe I have MSSE on there as well. maybe that is what is causing a conflict.
I will check them out as I mainly use that laptop for Serif software which I like for my card crafting design work. I don't...
Thank you for your thoughts on this.
I am not worried about it being a valid file... AS I am guessing it is a true M$ file, Though there have been suggestions elsewhere that it was a trojan.
BUT I will look to see if I can add an exception.... to my CLamAV
Do you think that is what is causing...
When I reboot my Compaq laptop then need to standy, hibernate or shutdown I get error message NETFXUPDATE.exe stopped the shutdown
I go into processes and delete that entry which then allows me to shut down.
BUT it is irritating me to have to do that each time.
so some questions. Do I need...
Yes I am in process of formatting it to NTFS. Hope I copied all the system files across first.
I had a distant memory that came to me in the early hours about Fat32 not being able to handle large files.
Though having said that I noticed one file if 11GB had copied across so don't know what is...
Thank you BigBadBen, I will try that tomorrow when I have access to the pc again.
I did try 'properties'on each of the AVI files and found all those over 1000 KB were the ones that did not copy over.
Forgive my lack of knowledge on Windows related problems as I am so used to my iMac I forget...
Hah! found out how to discover the hidden extensions.
Seems like all the files that wouldn't transfer are .avi, which is strange as quite a few .avi files did transfer.
I am now completely puzzled.
Hoping for help soon.
thanks

Hubby uses Pinnacle Studio 7 to edit his files which we know is old but when he used the most uptodate version 10, he could not get on with it very well so he went back to V 7.
I have found that we can transfer some of the files. unfortunately I don't know what makes the difference e.g. .scn...
Hi Again, I plugged in the new 750Gb Lacie drive but strangely it is coming up as the D drive, I expected the old Toshiba to be that as I unplugged the CD ROM drive to utilise the space using an IDE cable to link the Toshiba to the PC directly.
BUT the Toshiba comes up as an 'F' drive, so I...
UPDATE, good news so far.
I have now obtained an IDE cable stripped the box down, plugged it into the PC directly and IT WORKED. It was recognised as new hardware and I could see all the files.
So now I am going to buy a new Ext storage.
probably a Lacie as I have 2 of those and never had a...
yes it was carefully wrapped and sealed and I was careful when I took it out.
didn't work again so now I will try taking it out of its casing and plugging directly into the pc.
will keep you posted.
Thanks

Hi Guys, thanks for the suggestions.
At the moment I have it sitting in my freezer, which was a suggestion from a software engineer I know.
Didn't work the first time but he said it took four goes once for him to get a drive to re-awaken.
I don't hear any sounds at all when I try to start it up...
Hi Vacunita I tried that earlier, didn't show up in the management tool. :-(
Bigbadben, had also already tried changing the usb access.
still nothing.
Can anyone recommend data recovery software please, that doesn't cost a fortune.
I I have a feeling it might have become corrupted due to not...
I think the pc got the virus from internet explorer. Our subscription expired while on holiday and hubby may have used it before I renewed it, so I had to completely re-install the OS on my hubby's 390 emachine.
Now it does not find the Toshiba External hard drive 300 or 500 GB I think).
It has...
OK thanks Ben.
will try it but I am busy today and some of tomorrow so it might be a while till I can try that.
I am NOT going to let it defeat me now!
Even though he'd love a new computer we can't justify it if it is just a file glitch that can be fixed.
He mainly uses it for Video editing and...
