Hello,

Place the text below in a .bat (batch) file (e.g. paste it into a new

notepad document and save it with e.g. the name fixdb.bat)



Then run the batch file by double clicking on it.


You should run the batch file just after a reboot of the computer (as

the first thing).



The batch file will tell you when it is finished.



Please post any result back here, good or bad

Hi! I appreciate your suggestion, but I can't seem to get this to run. Are
there only certain parts of the script that need to be pasted into Notepad?
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hello,

***Create a RESTORE POINT before running this***

I have created the BAT file and attached it to this message. Hope it works.

Save it to your Desktop, Close *all* programs (esp. Explorer and Internet
Explorer) and run it. Leave it for a while. and restart when prompted.
