Using AVg PC TuneUp, I get the window, "Not Enough Timers Available"  with an "OK" button.   PC TuneUp seems to function correctly, tho...Is this a problem?

I am getting the same pop-up,  and I just got the ultimate version.  It goes through the other steps,  but when it gets to fixing startup & shutdown,  the error pops and windows makes the spring sound like something broke.  Here is a picture what we are talking about. Pic of not enough timers pop-up box

Hello James,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Thank you for providing the screenshot.
We are sorry,  the image is not that clear, we can only see the message as " NOT ENOUGH AVAILABLE"  the inbetween word is not clear, could you please mention the word that is not clear?

Hello. I got a free trial of AVG PC Tuneup and I got the same message "Not enough timers available" in its first system scan. I send you a screenshot of the problem. What does it mean? I'm positive on buying this software but this message it's annoying.
