So I started up my computer this morning and once I get to my desktop a notification saying "sprtcmd.exe - corrupt file" and "The file or directory C:/Program Files/Dell Support Center/ gs_agent is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility." I ran the Chkdsk utility and nothing happened even in admin mode. I am also blocked from restoring my computer and removing/repairing Dell Support Center. Any ideas? I am using a Dell XPS M1530 with Vista Ultimate if that helps -- e0d0d |

Uninstall the last update from Dell.
Or, sprtcmd.exe from starting on startup. Start Run Type "msconfig.exe" without quotation marks. Click OK Go to Startup tab Uncheck the sprtcmd box (to prevent popup). Do not uncheck the dsca box (so DCS will continue to operate on Startup) Click OK Restart After restarting, a System Configuration Utility window with message will appear. Check box so this message will not appear again when next restarting. "e0d0d" wrote in message ...

'Dell Support Center' (http://www.dell.com/content/topics/g...gen&redirect=1) Here is where the DSC software is. Download it and reinstall it and it should work again. -- hkancyr Ultimate 64 QX6700 Badaxe2 6Gigs Corsair 6400 8800GTX 768 6X 500Gig 2X 160Gig Rosewill 950watt PSU BenQ 24in LCD |
