    I can remember that hassle with my laptops. The nice thing was I was still on when power would go out due to storms or whatever and didn't lose data. Now i would need to invest in a battery backup as I have a desktop computer. Probably should get one of those but keep putting it off when I see the fishing stuff I can get instead.

    same here. I copied the file to sys32. Uninstalled then reinstalled program using compatibility mode. Still no work.

    Went to microsoft win7 help and it said this didn't apply to win 7. Holy chit.

    Said I could have a virus, bad hardware, malware.etc. Just a cya spill.

    How long you had the problem Bill?
