Shottas,
I rebooted into a my old xl system so I could do virus scan without worry of an infectio affecting the results, I did get root kitted a few years back. That was a lot of fun. Hit man pro, avg, bitdefender and malware bytes all say I am clean.
Carwiz,
In my twain folder, there is wiatwain.ds
A Nikon folder for my slide scanner.
And epfb5 folder, that would be the epson folder.
In there are some dlls a .ptn .cnt .ds and a help file
Also, at this point I will just mention that I appreciate the effort everyone has taken to help.
Thanks.
Shottas,
I know the cable is good. I installed the trial version of vuescan, and it works fine. Trail scans are watermarked, so I can't use them. Besides, i am bothered that this used to work, now it doesn't, don't know what the problem is.
I am usually the "go to" person for tech support issues. So, you can get an idea of how bad it is if I am asking for help!!
Look
I think it might be worth a shot at running the Kaspersky rescue disk it will scan without involving Windows
I am on my tablet right now so just Google that and it will guide you through the process of creating the disk or USB stick. It doesn't take that long to run either. At very least it will scan everything from power up and root out anything hiding away until Windows gets going.
Rescue Disk
Dear User,
We are sorry to inform you that the Rescue Disk image is not currently available for download.
We recommend using the BartPE-based recovery disk.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Sincerely,

Downloaded and ran the rescue program. That was a nice little 9 hour scan.
Everything came up clean.
Hmm rather a long scan for the rescue disk and even though it came up clean doesn't verify everything is
ICIT2LOL,
Well, true enough, but I refer to my earlier post in which I essentially did the same thing, where I booted into a different OS, on a different hard drive and did several scans, all of which came up clean.Hmm rather a long scan for the rescue disk and even though it came up clean doesn't verify everything is
I really don't think this is a virus / malware problem. Just something isn't right in the configuration and needs to be fixed. Just can't figure out what. This used to work, don't know what has changed.I rebooted into a my old xl system so I could do virus scan without worry of an infection affecting the results, I did get root kitted a few years back.
