Okay gang, I loaded some app software for my digital camera. Additionally, I tried loading Adobe Photodeluxe 1.0... the autorun would lock up... Tried to load from run...couldn't get past browse before locking up... finally tried through explore (WINDOW button + E) and would also lock up... So I bailed on trying to load it. Now I get this ticking sound (the sound when you click to start an application) except it doesn't stop ticking... 21 times every minute!!
Task manager shows "Explorer" always on, though there is no app open... The only way I get it to stop is to press ctrl+alt+del (explorer shows open at the top) and hit cancel... the sound goes away. If I open explorer via start and then shortcut I don't get the sound... (task manager shows "Exploring C..." AND "Explorer" as tasks open. But no sound. As soon as I hit Windows Button+E we start ticking again... If I reboot I get the ticking again....
PLEASE!!!! make the ticking stop!!!! (and yes I am a Anandtech subscriber...)
