  • sorry, i cant help but i just wanted to let you know that you are not alone :mad: I have the same laptop as you with vista basic and am having the exact same problem :confused:

    I did post the other day about DEP but no one seemed to be able to help with it. Hopefully someone will be along soon with answers for both of us!

    One way to run Live is by right clicking on it and then selecting "run as administrator" Ive tried this and it has worked. I have to do it everytime I want to use it, bit annoying!
