Also explaining the system requirements for an infected computer makes it very simple for anyone to know if this is the right option for them. I think it’s great that you can even run this tool without having to boot into windows. If you take a look at this post I wrote, it will give you step-by-step instructions as to how to install the new System Sweeper tool on a flash drive or CD: http://bit.ly/qyczwfAlexandra Lawrenzhttp://blog.tune-up.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30199100.post-80154445511147230102011-07-29T15:53:56.696-04:002011-07-29T15:53:56.696-04:00Hi, Mitzi.
In checking the Dell Dimension E521 ...Hi, Mitzi. <br /><br />In checking the Dell Dimension E521 Vista System, it appears that it is a 64-bit AMD processor. <br /><br />First, make sure that the CD you created was for the 64-bit version of the System Sweeper (mssstool64.exe) even if you used a 32-bit computer to download the file.<br /><br />Second, although in the specs I found, it does not appear that your computer has a 3.5" floppy drive, if that is the case, I suspect that is the source of the error. <br /><br />You can disable the floppy drive either via Device Manager or BIOS.<br /><br />1) To Disable in Device Manager: <br /><br />Go to Device Manager. Select it and Expand FloppyDiskdrives. Select FloppyDiskDrive and right-click selecting disable.<br /><br />2) To Disable in BIOS:<br /><br />Restart your Computer, pressing Del to enter into BIOS. In CMOS Setup, click FloppyDrive A and select Disabled. When you Save your Changes in Bios, you won’t see FloppyDrive in Windows.<br /><br />In either process, restart the computer to ensure the changes took effect. Reverse the process to re-enable the floppy drive.Corrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02110007723754751966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30199100.post-86525469265284725312011-07-29T12:28:55.816-04:002011-07-29T12:28:55.816-04:00Microsoft System Sweeper Error Code 0x8004cc05 boo...Microsoft System Sweeper Error Code 0x8004cc05 booting on a Dell Dimension E521 Vista System.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30199100.post-10004675561961509692011-07-29T10:03:11.727-04:002011-07-29T10:03:11.727-04:00error code 0x8004cc05 when system sweeper failed t...error code 0x8004cc05 when system sweeper failed to start from cd.mitzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12607939758330788418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30199100.post-27045355231163376222011-07-29T10:00:29.150-04:002011-07-29T10:00:29.150-04:00Made the cd and started from it, no problems, but ...Made the cd and started from it, no problems, but the program would not start. error code: 0x8004cc05<br /><br />what went wrong?mitzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12607939758330788418noreply@blogger.com
