  1. "ID 15016, "Unable to initialize the security package Kerberos for server side authentication"

    I get this one after a clean Vista x64 SP1 install using an integrated ISO I downloaded directly from MS. The name of my ISO was:

    SW_DVD5_Windows_Vista_Business_64BIT_English_64_Full_Int_MLF_X14-56048.ISO

    1. With a core 2 duo, both cores will be used.
    2. *Most* group policies can be set through the registry. Not all though.
    3. Wireless is fine
    4. Yes, MCE can be joined to a domain.

    Just my $0.02 :whistle:

    XP Home will use both cores in a core duo or X2 as well. Its running two physical cpus that Home will not do.

  2. I haven't checked yet, but can this update be uninstalled, or is it a permanent change? I always though Microcode was embedded in the cpu itself, but I'm probably wrong.

  3. Yea, thats been showing up on just about every celeron, pentium III, IV that I've scanned for updates on. I installed it without any ill effects. Microsoft would be in quite the pickle pushing this out to people that didn't need it and it wound up screwing a up an assload of PCs.

  4. I have one 98SE machine that won't allow me to uninstall anything from add/remove or from attempting to execute the program's uninstaller. When I try, nothing happens. The computer still responds, but the uninstaller never starts. No spyware/Virus infections found and installs go normally. Any ideas?

  5. I've noticed this problem on all PCs that have been upgraded from Windows update to Microsoft Update. Before upgrading, it was like 2min max to get the list and with MU, its now upwards of 5-9 minutes! Going to administrative options and reverting back doesn't make the problem go away, either. I know its also scanning for Office updates too but in the time it takes MU to scan it, I could've got a list from WU, manually visited OU and cut my lawn! This is a pretty severe problem and wastes a lot of people's time. Its hell on patch tuesday at work since we're poor and don't have a WSUS.

  6. I know you meant well and I'm an emulation nut, but its not a good idea to post romsite links. The main reason being its just telling their enemies where to look so they can be shut down. Second reason is that I'm sure it violates a rule on this board. Best advice is to keep the treasure sites to yourself and enjoy the hobby.

  7. While the Yahoo stuff is annoying, I don't classify it as adware. Besides, there is a checkbox to opt out of yahoo toolbar installation that anyone with half a brain can see during installation. He's surely getting a cash infusion from Yahoo for including it so let him make some lunch money.

    There are many people with brains who asking me over and over why they see popups of casino and when i am asking them:"Do you have installed MSG PLUS and disabled the sponsor?". They answer most of the time with:"Yes!! But which sponsor? Dont see a question about sponsor or adware?"

    Windows is to easy to use for dummies, thats why people earns money at this toolbar.

    And what do you understand at "adware"? I call programs which wants to install without my permission adware...

    But if they stay creating nontoolbarversions, i am happy then :D!

    They are asking for permission to install the Yahoo toolbar. Thats what the handy checkbox in the install options is for. Granted, it shouldn't be checked by default, but I'm sure thats a requirement set by Yahoo, not the Ccleaner dev. Konfabulator hasn't changed any since Yahoo bought them other than their name. The way I see it, if you're using a program like Ccleaner that deletes file and messes with the registry, then you should be smart and experienced enough to pay attention to its installation process. If you don't, then you deserve what you get. In this case, It could be alot worse. Imagine the stink it would create if it was WhenU or VX2 Ccleaner was installing instead of Yahoo.

  9. Hey denzilla? What did you end up doing? Did you clean it? Does the CPU work?

    UPDATE!  :P

    Hey again :)

    We settled and he refunded the money lastnight. He's somewhat irrate and swears up and down that he's right, but I don't want to risk ruining a board. He didn't ask for the cpu back, but I'm going to mail it back anyway.

    Thanks all for the advice!
