Onto the next step, OTL
Cool :)
I started the OTL scan this morning, and after 11 hours, it is still scanning. It is slow, that if for sure, but it is not frozen, so i will let it go for now. *hearing the Jeopardy theme music*
Keep me posted...
On the corner of my eye, i noticed two black windows with DOS commands came up, and closed. OTL is doing Manual File Scan - Getting Folder Structure. I have no idea how far that is in the process, nor how long it will take that slow computer to complete it! But, it is not frozen!
That's good. Keep it going.
To avoid any false positive, what should i see when it is actually done? Will the log be popping on top of the OTL window?
Yes...
Is there something i should see change on the OTL window to indicate it is still working? (as opposed to being frozen)
You should see scanning progress.
You said before, there was some progress.
Yeah, earlier, i saw two windows popup, but since then (i admit that the screen saver comes on but i check often), i still see the Manual File Scan - Getting Folder STructure. I dont know if it is normally a long process at that stage or not. That is why i am wondering.
Stop that process.
Using another working computer, create CD listed below and boot bad computer from it.
Please download OTLPE (filesize 120,9 MB)
- When downloaded double click on OTLPENet.exe and make sure there is a blank CD in your CD drive. This will automatically create a bootable CD.
- Reboot your system using the boot CD you just created.
- Note : If you do not know how to set your computer to boot from CD follow the steps HERE
- Your system should now display a REATOGO-X-PE desktop.
- Depending on your type of internet connection, you should be able to get online as well so you can access this topic more easily.
- Double-click on the OTLPE icon.
- When asked Do you wish to load the remote registry, select Yes
- When asked Do you wish to load remote user profile(s) for scanning, select Yes
- Ensure the box Automatically Load All Remaining Users" is checked and press OK
- OTL should now start.
- Press Run Scan to start the scan.
- When finished, the file will be saved in drive C:\OTL.txt
- Copy this file to your USB drive if you do not have internet connection on this system
- Please post the contents of the OTL.txt file in your reply.
Okie dokie
Got the boot disk created, got the Reatogo desktop, double-clicked on the OTLPE icon and now, i have the window "Browse for folder". Is it looking for something specific? That is not in the instructions.
