livwir Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 I can't download due to these two error messages. I only have 2 torrents downloading at the time, and I am getting these on both. I can force start, but it only goes for a few minutes before I get one of these messages again. I have used Utorrent in the past, but set up a new pc and just reinstalled today. Can anyone help me to figure out what is going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Either the "Semaphore Timeout Period Expire" error is due to hardware failures...or it's VERY buggy security software (firewall/antivirus). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livwir Posted July 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 I am running the regular windows firewall and AVG antivirus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Just to be certain, can you post a Process Explorer list (with DLLs) and/or HijackThis log?(1st link in my signature, last post, very last part of that to explain how to do this.)Malware may also be to blame!

livwir Posted July 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 getting a different error now. It now says "the system cannot find the file specified". I have disabled toolbars and the antivirus as well. Not quite sure where to go with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 Have you scanned the hard drive for damage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livwir Posted July 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 yeah. I'm thinking that is where the issue is, but the scan showed no damage. Every time I restart windows it says that the disk needs to be checked. I'm looking for another hard drive now to put all my stuff on before this one totally takes a dump on me.
