    I have a computer that has both an SSD & HDD. I tried running combofix on it & gave me an error message (see attached - screenshot in Word doc). I should also mention that I'm running Windows 7 64-bit. However, I've successfully ran CF on Win7/64 with regular HDDs. Has anyone complained of this before? Can it run on SSDs?

    Well, started to run it, and it hung on the first section where it says: Scanning for infected files... this typically doesn't take more than ten minutes...

    Had to use task manager to end it's process and then we got the same error as you.

    Trying again now for a second attempt. I will bring this thread to Chaslang's attention so he can take a look.
