Hi guys,
Not sure if this helps but I had the same problem this morning and have resolved it...I think it may happen when you install some new software or when you unzip software??? see below:
The problem happened when I installed SPSS (v.15) from university onto my ACER Aspire 3690 last night. After I unzipped it and installed it etc I turned computer off to go to bed, turned it on in this morning and had the same issues you guys have described above (see pic)
All I did was un-install SPSS and all patches, re-started my laptop and now it is ok!
The SPSS file size was approx 1GB so I am not sure if this is to do with the lack of computer memory I have which is the following:
ACER (C) Total size 32.5GB, Free space 2.85GB
DATA (D) Total size 32.2GB, Free space 26.7GB
Anyway I'm no computer expert but thought I'd sign up and post this for you guys to try.
Cheers,
Iain
