Hi,
I am new to the boards so here it goes...
I have Windows XP for an operating system.
Recentlly when I went to run Norton Disk Doctor to diagnose my C Drive it is giving me this error:
" The Operating System, or another process, currently has exclusive access to this drive, or some of it's files. Norton Disk Doctor cannot continue with a repair under these conditions. A repair can be scheduled to occur the next time you restart the system. Norton Disk Doctor can still diagnose this drive if 'fix errors' is unchecked. Would you like to schedule a repair?"
On re-boot the Disk Doctor still does not work and I get the same error message.
I thought it may be a virus, spyware, adware etc on my computer. I ran Nortin Anti-virus, and found nothing. I donwloaded Spybot search and destroy, and Ad Aware SE. Both found tons of stuff hidden on my computer.
Spybot kept showing 5 DSO Exploit files and after looking through this forum I found the link to the DSO Exploit removal patch for Spybot which solved that problem. Thanks!
Unfortunately I still cannot solve the Norton Disk Doctor issue. I have Norton Utilities, AntiVirus and Internet Security on the computer, all are completely updated, however Disk Doctor is the only portion of the program that will not work.
Not to mention the computer is slower than death.... better than before but still terrible...
Has anyone ever encountered such a problem before? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
