  1. I will claim exactly that! I will claim that as the Director of IT for a multi million dollar company that runs Windows Server 2003 as a server and all XP workstations. I will claim that having worked in other companies that ran everything from Linux, 2000, 2003, NT and every other flavor of server. I will claim that having worked in environments with thousands of PCs ranging from Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, XP. If you are having stability problems with XP then that's just an indication you didn't install it right or you are unaware of any issues your hardware may have working together. Your statement is ignorant. Any IT Professional will argue your statement. Every respected member of this site has already argued this statement in the preceeding posts. And when I say "respected" I mean the guys over the last 2 years who I have learned really know what they are talking about. I mean the ones who it's obvious that they do this for a living and aren't some "1337" 15 year old who is on the computer at 3am in a dark room with a bag of doritos by their side. I know you said you worked for Dell, but that doesn't really mean anything. For all I know you could have been an assembler, or a mail room guy, or worked in their cafeteria. Hell... I'm Dell Certified... know what that means? It means I was able to search their website to answer 10 questions for which all of the answers were on their website in 3 hours time. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ok first of all, you should trying being more tact and less condescending. Secondly, don't throw up your "extensive" resume...this isn't a job interview I don't care where you work or what you do. I worked TECHNICAL support for Dell not in the mail room or lunch room as you boldly claimed I did. Nor am I some "1337" 15 yearold up at 3am eating potato chips--that's quite immature to just automatically call anyone who doesn't agree with you a teenager. For all I know YOU are the young person picking the fight. I wasn't rude nor being an assh*le in my post YOU however predictably were in yours. I quit coming here before for a reason, now I wish I never came back to give this place a second chance. Instead of having a civil intelligent debate you turned it into a juvenile flame war. Only thing left for you to do is to run to the teacher and get me in time out--AKA ask a moderator to ban me. I don't need to prove myself to you or anyone else my age, my work experience, or my credentials, I stated my OPINION based on my own personal EXPERIECE to add to this discussion. And based upon my experience with XP and 2003 Server in my current job, my personal use, and past technical background I do insist 2003 is more stable as well as trouble free as a workstation vs XP. Didn't "install it right" you said? Hah, what a crock. I've personally build and serviced hundreds of computers myself in which a portion of those were XEON server machines...but that doesn't matter nor should anyone care. I simply added my opinion to the discussion in hopes at least one person would take something positive out of it. Now if you'll excuse me I'll log out and refrain from coming here again. Take solice in the fact that I won't be back to read your drivel. Good day.
  2. 2003 Server as a server or workstation kicks XP in the nuts. I've tried several tests dual booting them off of the same machine with the same hardware configuration, 2003 Server as a workstation or server out performs XP in every aspect. XP is full of holes and SP2 doesn't even come close to 2003 out-of-the-box stability. 2003 Server Standard can easily replace XP and do everything you need it to do. I've ran 2003 Server Standard for almost 2 years from the same install and uptime of months with zero BSOD or problems...can't say the same with XP. When I worked for Dell I encountered so many problems with XP I learned to hate it with every fiber of my being. Want a stable workstation? Install 2003 Server Standard. Want a stable server? Install 2003 Server Enterprise. I defy anyone to claim XP even with SP2 is better vs 2003 Server Standard...it just isn't true.
  3. Nevermind, I forgot I disabled the Cryptographic service for testing on something. Whoops.
  4. My 2003 Enterprise Server uses NTFS 3.1, so would it be better to use NTFS 5.x? If so...how to convert to it? And would it be even worth it?
  5. Try this: C:\DOC.OLD\Tomi\SendTo>attrib *.* -s -r Then: C:\DOC.OLD\Tomi\SendTo>del 3*.lnk
  6. If you would of read the first few sentances of my post I explained how to remove the file attributes and delete the file. Did you try it? You use an asterisk and not a question mark.
  7. If we are talking about the HISTORY of television then it's easy, Barbara Eden. But if you're talking about CURRENTLY then it's got to be "Do" aka Dominique the extremely hot Dutch singer from the song: DJ Sammy - Heaven.
  8. That shortcut is for 3½ Floppy that is present in the SendTo menu upon a right click...open that folder in a command window (start -> run -> cmd.exe) and just do type the following: "attrib *.* -s -r" without the quotes followed by: "del 3*.lnk". OR, you need to install support for language packs. What version of Windows is that 2000? Pagefile.sys is your virtual memory so don't worry about that, I do not know what hiberfil.sys is. Hope this helps.
  9. Simple answer...but often overlooked. Check your jumper on your HDD's, if that fails run the recovery console and then fixboot...that should fix your problem. If either these do not...I have NO clue what it could be without seeing it for myself. When you say "blank screen" you don't mean a QUICK flash of a Blue Screen of Death followed by a black screen do you? If so then your Windows installation is possibly corrupted. Also, some HDD's require the jumper to be set at Cable Select to function, check the HDD manufacturer's website for information on jumper settings. Good luck.
  10. Some basic programming code would be your best bet. As in Visual Basic, Visual C++, or maybe even QBasic. I'm not aware of a DOS command that runs a size compare...or even gets and stores the file's sizes in RAM for comparison then Prints it on screen.
  11. Ohhh cool. Thanks, I'll take a looksie at this.
  12. That's not a good idea. 4 years from now it will replaced with something else. Check out my timeline...I was being a smartass.
  13. Agreed. Also, NT4 had it's day...now every NT4 server should be on a 2000 Server platform by now...then in 2-4 years a 2003 Server platform...then some other non windows server platform...since all "new" windows editions are going to suck hardy if they don't already do...longhorn is a joke so far that I've seen/used/screamed at it. I'm about to install Linux and get it over with now while I still can.

    WinFS

    I understand it's just a pre-release beta but is the new filesystem working in anyway? I just got the MSDN disc with it on it...should I even bother? I haven't installed it yet, I can install it on a pretty hefty system so I won't worry about system resources even with a memory leak. Most of the reason why I want to even play with Longhorn is the new filesystem. Any relevant info is appreciated.
  15. Who cares...a bunch of rich white people, so let's drop everything and bask in thier "glory". I'd care if they reported on a subject that MEANS something or is worthwhile to mankind like; Who gave the most money to charity. Or something of that nature. Rich people make me sick.
