[corjello]

So, remmber that old computer i was messing with (has Windows 2K on it?) ya, well im back at it. I took rridgelys advice and ran dial a fix on it to try and fix the microsoft update problem, but it didnt work. It came up with an error something like "can not find sc.exe". So i ran i hijack this, and decided to post it here to see what i could do to get it optimized for speed and stuff. And look what i found

A new DAF is coming, and it can repair a lot more Windows Updates issues.

awesome! I love that program. Its become a permanent fixture in my 'fix it' utilities.

[corjello]

the issue with the windows update is that it had a critical issue for outlook that wont go away. I download and install, but its back the next time i search for updates. Anyone know what sc.exe is? and is this one safe to remove?

whats msdxm.exe?

I'd leave msdxm alone. Some people may use the Internet Radio feature.

Man, i love this place. Thanks for all the help. Ill try that new dial a fix when it comes out, and if it doesnt work, ill post a comment over at his site.
