- DjLizard : @Titotinton: The way this economy is going, I could definitely use any donation and it would be most appreciated. I have begun working on Dial-a-fix again and hope to be able to release a new version in the distant future.
- Tarun : @Titotinton: Any amount you can spare DjLizard is always helpful. People who show appreciation by donating help keep developers interested and motivated. It shows an active interest in their product.
- Tarun : @biff: 7 is going to be a lot like Vista, so DAF should be able to work with it without any major issues. But that's speculation right now.

It's too bad it doesn't tell you what file it is. This has happened twice in our shop for two different machines with two different classes of devices. One was a printer and the other was a wireless network adapter (both were USB devices, though). After the typical chkdsk /r, getting a new driver download, etc, we have come to find out that reinstalling DirectX 9 fixed the problem. Why? I don't know, but if the system cannot find the file specified, try reinstalling DirectX 9 just in case.
Hope this helps someone.

I have this cases of "the system cannot find the file specified"
i solved it this way:
Go to Start » Run and enter "regedit"
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
With CurrentVersion Highlighted, go to the Edit menu and select New » Key
Name the key RunOnce - Leave everything else about the key alone.
i hope it helps.
Works fine, thanks a lot !!!!!!!
