Hi. In application events I'm getting messages like these: Log Name:Application, Source:Microsoft-Windows-CAPI2, Event ID:257, Level:Error, Keywords:Classic, User:N/A, Description: The Cryptographic Services service failed to initialize the Catalog Database. The ESENT error was: -583. Log Name:Application, Source:SceCli, Event ID:1005, Level:Error, Keywords:Classic, User:N/A, Description: Some JET database is corrupt. Run esentutl /g to check the integrity of the security database %%windir%%securityDatabasesecedit.sdb. If it is corrupt, attempt a soft recovery first by running esentutl /r in the %%windir%%security directory. If soft recovery fails, attempt a repair with esentutl /p on %%windir%%securityDatabasesecedit.sdb. Then delete the log files in %%windir%%security. Ошибка при открытии баз данных безопасности, таких, как %windir%securitydatabasesecedit.sdb. But when I was tried to run commands: esentutl /g %windir%securityDatabasesecedit.sdb esentutl /r %windir%security esentutl /p %windir%securityDatabasesecedit.sdb All of them are reporting the "Operation terminated with error -583 (JET_errSectorSizeNotSupported, The physical sector size reported by the disk subsystem, is unsupported by ESE for a specific file type.)" error. Question is - how to fix it? It looks esentutl tool cannot do anything in this case because always report the same error (-583). :-( View the thread

I am trying to delete a "Live OneCare Backup" from my external hard drive. The file was created by a PC using XP Media Center 2005, SP2, or possibly SP3. I am accessing that external hard drive using my laptop with Win 7 Pro (64 bit). Everytime I try removing the file, an "Access Denied" error appears. Alternatively, I get a message that says "You need Administrator Priveleges, etc." I have tried: 1) changing the file permissions. I get no error message, but the file still won't delete. 2) I have tried the instructions in MS Article ID: 943904 "How to delete a Windows Live OneCare Backup file," and that didn't work. Below, is a copy of the command-line window after my last attempt at using the "Iacls" command: G:>Icacls G:"Windows OneCare Backup" /t G:Windows OneCare Backup BUILTINAdministrators:(OI)(CI)(F) Terry-HPTerry:(OI)(CI)(F) Terry-HPHomeUsers:(OI)(CI)(F) G:Windows OneCare BackupYOUR-45C550F850: Access is denied.

My computer used to be configured for RAID 1. Since this was constant resynching, I removed the RAID feature and used the second drive as a backup drive instead (a backup is actually more suited to my needs). The problem is, when I start up my machine, the bootloader still gives me the option for "Windows 7 - Secondary Plex", even though there isn't one. How can I remove this without harming my primary disk? View the thread

I have W7 Pro(64bit) on my laptop. I have been using XPMode very successfully for over a year for some older apps. I now have a program that will only install & run on W7(32bit) but not on W7(64bit). For more than this reason, I want to downgrade to W7(32bit) and keep XPMode as it is. (I.e. I do not want to reinstall all my XPMode apps.) How can I do this? Cheers, Ross. View the thread
