General Computer Support / No MDAC in Win 7 again
« on: August 11, 2013, 12:42:14 pm »
Greeting tweakers - new guy here -
There was an excellent thread here:
http://www.tweaking.com/forums/index.php?topic=942.0 about one user that had a 64 bit Win 7 machine that couldn't use programs requiring MDAC. I could have been the original poster. I've tried everything suggested and my results were the same. The thread died in March with over 3500 views, so I assume my problem isn't unique. he only possible difference is when I run the repair tool. I get it never seems to complete. Even though it says the total repair time is .05, hitting Stop gives the message shown in the attachment. It never finishes. Maybe there is something there.
Anyway, I believe it was pretty much decided that the original OP should backup and rebuild his system. The thought of that gives me gas.
Has anyone discovered anything new?
Thanks for any help.
Steve
