HI, When you say "can't stop it" do you mean task manager doesn't let you - if so download Process Explorer from SysInternals: http://download.sysinternals.com/Files/ProcessExplorer.zip it's much better than TM and it has an option "replacewindows Task Manager" so it then comes up via Ctrl Alt...

Hi Yepper, I've got ZA Extreme security - so possibly different but as I say - use task manager (or SysInternals Process Explorer - better than task manager) to see if ISWSVC.exe is running, if it is kill it and EasyBCD will start - but be quick before ISWSVC.exe restarts. If you don't have...

Hi Guys, I just posted a new thread on this - it's the Force Field part of ZA Extreme security - it runs as a service and doesn't unload even if you unload ZA from the systray. You need to kill ISWSVC.exe and EasyBCD will start. I've posted a question on the ZA forum as to why Force Field...

Hi Guys, Well, it took a bit of hacking around but I found how ZoneAlarm Extreme Security prevents EasyBCD from running. It is the Zone Force Field module ISWSVC.exe which runs as a service and DOES NOT unload if you exit / stop ZoneAlarm (right click in sys tray and shutdown). I found...

I guess so but I've got the best part of a year to go on my subscription. Can you confirm that if I set my boot stuff up with EasyBCD and then, once everything is OK, i can reinstall Zone and don't need to run EasyBCD for the boot stuff to keep working. A friend at work here suggested I run...

Looks like I spoke too soon - I rebooted again to reconect other SATA and check BRUB loader still working (it was) but this reboot caused the failure to re-appear. To prove it was Zone, I uninstalled it and EasyBCD worked again. Reinstalled Zone and, after its reboot to complete install EasyBCD...

Hey Edro, It doesn't help but i'm glad someone else has the same problem as me. I wonder if we have anything in common? At time of initial install I had a blank formatted SATA disk for Win 7 and an older partitioned drive with Ubuntu on it. I also have another SATA drive with XP which uses...

Hi Justin, I downloaded the file dotnetfx35setup.exe and tried to run it - Got the "Do you want to allow this program to make changes.." pop up. Clicked "Yes" and - nothing, no install wizard, no error message. Easy BCD still won't run

OK, tried it - turned off .NET (unchecked all) and just to test with no .NET ran EasyBCD - got exact same error. RE-enabled .NET - exact same error. BUT - I also tested for .NET at that time with netfx_setupverifier.exe utility and it reported all .NET versions verified even though those...

Control panel doesn't show much. In Programs & Features -> Uninstall a program All I see are the ones I have installed: Flash player, Adobe reader, EasyBCD etc. None of the "system" programs are there. But if I look at C:\Program Files & C:\Program Files (x86) there are all the system programs...

I'll try it - I am still learning my way around Win 7, I haven't found a comprehensive Add/Remove Programs list yet. Where I see .NET it is just .NET 3 but the .NET verification tool is finding the .NET 2 components and giving them the OK. I checked my ISP usage last night and I am getting...

I didn't really expect it to fully work on XP but the fact that it fired up without crashing was the "test". So I'm still not sure why it's not working on Win 7 given that I seem to have .NET 2 and 3 installed in both the XP & the Win7 environments. So in respect of XP versus Win7: XP has...

Hi, Just before I reformat my Win 7 disk, given that it seems that .NET 2 is included in .NET 3, I checked the .NET stuff using the .net verification utility netfx_setupverifier, it reported that .NET 2 SP2 was installed and working. So could there be another reason why I am getting "The...

OK will install with just Win 7 disk connected - I had that 100Mb partition problem last time , so I'll reformat the disk myself. Should be able to do it tonight.

Hi, Thanks for the quick reply. I found a thread on a Microsoft forum that said .NET 2 is included in .NET 3. But there was also info on how to check if your install has any problems in this area. Since I am only at the stage of starting with Win 7 and have not moved any data or apps over...

HI Jake, Installed latest beta and got the same error. Checking control panel in Win 7shows the .NET framework 3.5.1 box greyed (not ticked) and expanding this shows that the 2 "Windows Communication Foundation" entries not ticked. Do i need to activate one or both of these? Cheers - Dave...

Have downloaded and installed EasyBCD 1.7.2. Wheen trying to run it I get: Application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)

Thanks Terry, I'll give that a try over the weekend. Dave

Thanks Guys, Looks like it is possible. One question, given I currently have GRUB on the XP disk, should I (can I) remove that so the boot loader can be on the Win7 disk.

Hi, I have a machine with 2 SATA drives and an older IDE drive - can boot from either SATA. I have XP installed on one SATA drive (CMOS to boot from this one) and a copy of XP on another SATA drive - small partition I had been playing around at XP install time and never removed it. I also...
