Repair wont start in XP x64 even in safe mode, i tried 3 times but doesnt work.
Boggin:
I don't game except for the odd game of Klondike :) but I'm using laptops with Intel and AMD so can't check out your suggestions.
I don't think the repair program would have done anything for your sound problem anyway.
If you have a sound card rather than it being built into the motherboard, you could try gently cleaning the contacts with an eraser or cotton buds and Isopropanol.
Are you using external speakers on your XP machine and do you get the same sound problems when you plug them into your other machines ?

Yes i knew that program wouldn't fix my sound problem, i didnt rely on it from the start but i wanted to give it a try, more i wanted to use it for tweaking [as its name] and improve the performance of my o.s.
like Shane said in his quotes: "Why fix what isn't broken?" I reply "To make it better."
So i dont call it a "fix" from the start like others do, but for me its more like improving and boosting the performance of a pc, by cleaning the registry to make it work faster.
Im almost sure that the problem of the tiny stuttering audio i have, is related to the problem of my memory's slots of channel 2 , which even with memories inserted inside, it still being unrecognized by the bios.
Im positive about that because i already tried what u said and cleaned the dust from the contacts of my PCI-X Creative X-FI Titanium sound card, and either the internal built in SB,NETWORK,USB contacts, even that i dont use it. i did with air spray, cotton buds and alcohol, just few days ago [like i do once in a while for maintenance]
And i also tested the speakers with my other pc, but didnt get the same sound problem because the speakers are totally ok, but thx for the advice's anyway ;-)
jpm:
Sometimes the repairs need to run as a service. If it cannot load as a service you will see that error.
95% of the time this is your antivirus app blocking it.
If you reboot into safe mode it should work fine.
Stookza:
Im sorry to tell you but you are wrong this time jpm, because i tried already 3-4 times in safe mode and even checked in Task Manager that nod32 is not running in the background, and still it didnt work.
Boggin is right in a chance of almost 100%, according to what he said yesterday, Shane never tested the software with XP x64 because of its unpopularity and thats the reason.
I will be very surprised if anyone in the world, will tell us that he succeed to do the main repair of the tweaking.com software with xp x64.
I can upload my XP x64 with a CD key, if Shane or someone of u has time and wanna try and test it, but if he doesnt, then no matter, i will understand.
Willy2:
- Do you recall how many CMD.exe windows opened (& closed) before this error message popped up ? before WR failed ?
- Did you try the latest WR version ?
