If you uncheck the DDA (Direct Disk Access) option under the Scanning Control Preferences and scan, does the scan hang? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you uncheck the DDA (Direct Disk Access) option under the Scanning Control Preferences and scan, does the scan hang? I was referring to me having to manually restart when it froze, surely that will have damaged something, with regards to the DDA option I will try it without it active ps what if it freezes again though my computer could get messed up if it froze Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManicTyrant Posted September 5, 2008 sorry for posting twice in a row but turning DDA off did allow the scan to complete successfully, what can be done to remedy the DDA issue now? ps when the updates say DDA compatibility improved, when do you see it becoming 100% compatible with all NTFS file systems?
