FixIt Ceter Pro

Wow, that doesn't look too bad. I know the simple little Fixit scripts they provide, but something like this is a lot more robust for us forensic troubleshooters. Thanks!
 
Can't get to the MS site. I get as far as trying to login then it hangs and dies. Doesn't even get that far if you are not using IE.

I'll try again later as it looks very interesting.
 
In the meantime, Rich, you may want to check out these KB articles referenced in the TechNet article:

926079 - Frequently asked questions about the Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT)
973559 - Frequently asked questions about the Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT) when it is used with Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2
 
Definitely interested in the result.

Check underneath Rich. I got in with IE9, but three windows opened. A sign-in screen that would NOT let me enter my credentials to sign in popped open on my primary monitor, but on my secondary monitor, a Welcome to FixIt Pro window opened and when I dismissed that, I realized under the welcome window was indeed, the FixitCenter Pro (beta) page, opened with me signed in.

Interestingly, when I went snooping around through Guided Search and selected Windows Internet Explorer, it only provided help for IE7, and IE8 on Windows Server. No IE9. Under Windows, no W8. So I think they have some updating to do.
 
I guess. That said, I did not see much in there that would be for me - programmers might enjoy it though.
 
Um, I never flush my cookies. I prefer to keep them and remove only the ones I specifically want to.

I am of the same mindset and that is why I like CCleaner. It lets me tag the cookies I want to keep (such as the forums I visit) so I don't have to sign in to all my regular sites after flushing my other cookies. I notice on some sites when clicking the link in notification emails to visit the most recent reply, I am often taken back to the most recent before my last reply, not the most recent in the thread. This happens on WTT all the time for me, so I have to flush WTT cookies, then it works again - for awhile.

I wonder if you need to have a subscription to TechNet or something to get access.

Have you tried logging in from a different computer?

Does this mean my hardware adventure troubles are over? :)

As a hardware guy, I can unequivocally tell you, "it's a software problem!" ;)
 
Try running IE9 "As Administrator"

Try Safemode w/ Networking.

Try - activate hidden admin acct.
 
I have UAC off. I tried it from the hidden Administrator account (which is not hidden on my system) and have also tried it from Safe Mode with Networking. All do not work.

I do not have a TechNet subscription, is that required? I never got far enough to receive any kind of error message.
 
No, a TechNet subscription is not required. Otherwise, there would not be a public post about it. Just got the following:

Connection problem

There was a problem connecting to the Fix it Center Pro service.

Please try again later.
