Sometimes those FixIt tools are just changing registry entries run RegMon (ProcMon) from SysInternals while you apply the fix and youll see what it did to the registry.

Ran into a situation on a laptop where I couldnt get the system to see the drive. It would recognize that the drive existed but wouldnt load the drivers. I went to the manufacturers website (Dell) and after poking around on the support site for a few minutes, found a troubleshoot my problem section and followed it on down. When I got to the part about the system not recognizing the drive, the website suggested downloading and running a Microsoft FixIt tool. I did and that fixed it, but Id really like to know what the issue was that was causing the problem! ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
