Hi Rickravel,

3. when the problem started?

4. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

    These error messages are a pain in the neck to extract useful information.

    I suggest that you do a search online 'pilot audio free downloads' and find another audio program for your PC.

    If you find something that works for your satisfaction - remove your original pain in neck audio software and make sure you make your audio program newly found the 'default' device.

    Realtek and NVIDIA, for example get stuff good free audio driver.

    If the new program does not work - it would be a good indication that you have hardware on your PC, drive problems and no amount of play more with to try to correct the audio software will help. Period

    Suggestions?

    Hello

    1. have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

    2. which antivirus app do you use?

    I suggest you try these methods and check.

    Method 1:

    Anti-virus software may conflict with Windows Update. You can temporary disable them and check the issue.

    Disable the antivirus software
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2:

    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly.

    Follow these steps:

    a. click the Start button, click computer.

    b. now, go to this site: C:\windows\softwaredistribution\datastore\logs\edb.log
    Where 'C' is the drive of operating system

    I am trying to remove a user administrator account or remove the password and I get the error message below. Also, I can't delete the password as an administrator in Windows 7 32 bit or delete the account. I get this error message "Windows cannot remove the password.

    Someone has put a policy on your machine to enforce some rules for passwords. Best is to ask that person to change these rules for you. Alternatively, you can run gpedit.msc, then follow this path to edit yourself: Local computer policy / Computer Configuration / Windows settings / security settings / account policy / password policy.

    Note also that:
    -You cannot delete the built-in Administrator account.
    -Administrator with a blank password accounts is a big security risk.

  • When I insert a CD of the application, I get the error message - 'windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have access to the item. I tried pretty much everything including a new CDROM and loading on safe mode.

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    Hi Mefrombigd,

    1. it happens with all types of CD?

    2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    3 when was the last time it was working fine?

    4. you receive the error message when you insert the CD into the CD drive?

    Method 1

    Check if you can access the contents of the CD using Windows Explorer application.

    (a) click the start menu, and then double-click computer.

    (b) make a right click on the CD drive, click Open.

    (c) check if you can access it.

    Method 2

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you perform a clean boot and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
