When I try to do a disk defrag it says defrag disk could not start. Why__
I'm trying to drive defrag, but it says it could not start. What should I do to fix this
Select Start, run, type cmd and press ENTER. Type "chkdsk c: /f /r" without the quotes and press ENTER. Make sure you include the spaces indicated. Enter Y when asked if you want to run chkdsk on restart the computer. Quit and then restart the computer.
Marking bad sectors on a hard disk takes time so be patient. Delimiting does not repair a defective sector. He places pointers to the reader by saying the system not to read or write to these areas that have been damaged.
If the number of defective sectors continued to increase after using the procedure above several times, then you should replace the disk. If an important system file is written to a bad sector, you can corrupt the registry hives and lose the entire contents of the disc.
However if have run chkdsk you not see more new bad sectors, then the reader can work for you for years.
Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell

I'm trying to restore my PC to the preassembled initial stateI followed this as mentioned in the help, but I got this messageCannot find "JScript.Encode" script engineC:\Windows\Help\OEM\scripts \launche. JSE
I use windows Vista
So what can I do to restore my system?waiting for your support with kindnessHello
There are two ways to do this.
Most computers these days don't come with recovery discs.
Instead, computer image makers a recovery Partition on the hard drive in order to reinstall the operating system to.
That the recovery process says return to factory (new State) settings
To access the recovery partition, you should be able to find it in the start menu > programs > list of software from the manufacturer of your > search for recovery options.
A simpler method to start the press a key or sequence of keys at startup (when you start your computer)
So maybe F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc. depending on your manufacturer.
You must ask them or online on their website or the Support Forums to know the exact key / s press.
Another method is to ask them to send you a set of recovery discs, which will do the same.
They will charge a small cost for this service.
Back up the data that it will be lost during the recovery process, and all programs that you have installed will need to be reinstalled from the original media (CD, DVD, download Net).
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
See you soon.

Photoshop cs4 access denied when you try to install from disk in Windows 7 64 bit.
Photoshop cs4 access denied when you try to install from disk in Windows 7 64 bit. I tried in
safe mode and it starts to install, but get an error there as well.
What should I do?
So when you put the disk in it does not work properly? When the disc is inserted, you should have a window pop up with 2 options. 1. install and another to see what is on the disk. Choose to open the disc or explore. Navigate to the folder where is the photoshop CS4 .exe file (which runs the Setup program), right-click on the .exe file and choose Run as administrator and it should start. See if it will install. If this isn't the case, then read below.
I don't know how long you got in the installation until so chances are, you will need to run the CS4 Cleanup utility. 2 levels to run but do not use 1 or 2 just type number 3.
http://www.Adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
You may need to run the utility windows install cleanup too
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/290301
Before you try to reinstall the software make sure that adobe reader is not installed. If it is delete. It has caused problems in the past with vista and CS4 installs.
You can also disable windows Defender and all antivirus software. You can keep UAC Windows 7.
When installing CS4 to 90 percent, it stops almost and may take 5 to 10 minutes at the end. It's normal. What a pain huh...
After the installation is complete, restart
After restarting, go to the icon of CS4 64-bit or 32-bit (depends on 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7) in the starting area, right-click on CS4 64-bit (if you have windows 7 64 bit), and then choose Properties, Compatibility tab, and then check run as administrator at the lower part. Hit apply, ok to finish.
Now, run CS4 and run the update.

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
