re: dmadmin.exe puzzle Thursday, July 23, 2009 at 4:08 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by normanw (1178 messages posted) No, I would never allow Norton on any machine I own, and it is definitely not responsible for dmadmin.exe, which is a MS file and integral to Windows XP. It should not be removed but it should run only when a disc partitioning process is in progress. Anyway, PeterD's solution for returning it to its normal sleep condition worked. ‘There’s always tomorrow.
