Have you tried running the software in compatibility mode for windows 95/98?

Are you using static or dynamic IP addressing? Have you tried to retype your WEP key? What type of wireless router are you running? In the driver configuration.. is the channel set to auto? In the driver configuration.. is the mode(b/g) set to auto? What mode is your wireless router running in? Are any of the advanced "108mbps" settings enabled?

Please be more specific..........

Yes there is much more that you need.. I would suggest doing some reading up on Windows Networking. For starters.. you will need to use hard drives in your client PC's unless you are talking about doing LIVE CD's or Thin Clients and Terminal Services which in this case it would not be W2K networking. And as for booting to the LAN, this is only necessary when deploying operating systems. I would start with this article to get a better idea as to which way you are thinking of going http://www.pcworld.com/howto/article/0,aid,102461,00.asp

I know.. dont you love it.. e-Acadamy is awsome.. I too have all flavors of 2003 and XP along with Visual Studios and Visio, Project and Virtural PC... all for free... YES... THANK YOU UNIVERSITY

for starters i would run from the command line sfc.exe /scannow this will verify your system files I would also check that your automatic updates service, BITS Service and DCOM and COM services are started.

you would want to use the second repair option.. the first one is the recovery console.. you want the repair installation. This is what I did when going from a cracked VLK to my msdnaa version from my school and it worked for me.

Agreed.. I think RIS is soo easy to use. Most modern network cards are compatible and you can deploy either base images or integrate drivers into the image. Makes for a quick setup.. especially if it is a Gbit connection and a decent computer.. 15 min setup.. beautiful

what part does it hang on. One of the most common mistakes i see people make is they have the wrong DNS server in the TCP/IP Properties. Make sure the Primary DNS Server is pointing to the Active Directory DNS Server for your network and not an public external DNS Server

I have used that tool before but after playing with GPO's and regsitry for a while, i found that this tool(atleast the parent tool to this product) was more expensive for what it was worth. I can accomplish the same results with group policy and default user profiles

By the way you explain it.. you have the same version I have through my school. Just run a repair install and this will change the license type

It depends on the student version you get and what their school gives to them. My student version for my school is a full version but it can only be activated on one machine. That is the only difference. However if I buy a new computer I can call them and activate it as well. As for performance or anything of greatness.. NO.. there is no difference.. Just a different licensing model.

What I normally do is create the folder called profiles$ but I share it as full control. Then the profiles are created in the shared directory with the permissions necessary for the user to work. what did you do that eventually fixed the problem?

When you delete something from a workstation where the files are located on another computer. The files are infact deleted from the server and to my knowledge are not recoverable(normal methods) unless you like say.. restore from backup, restore from Volume Shadow Copy services or other recovery methods

wow.. thats weird

What operating system is this on? How are you setting the user folder? What is the users folder? Is it their profile of a personal drive?

Have you tried booting into safemode and detecting drivers and whatnot? This KB article may be of some use to you http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=122926

I have it.. am testing it.. not worth downloading it unless you are feeling interested or want to test website development with it. It kinda give me the same fee as firefox does with the tabbed browsing and what not..

I would say WSUS is not what you are looking for.. many people on this forum have these projects and scripts for like "XP SP3" and 2000 SP5 stuff going on.. I would probably say that would be more what you are looking for for WSUS you would have to edit the registry on the machines to get them to download from your WSUS server I dont know how any of those projects work or exactly what post they are in. I dont have any use for them.. I do all my stuff in corporate enviroments and just run a domain at my house.. so i have never tried that.. Anybody who used these patchers have any input?

Minimum for VLK is 5. It is like that for Office, Windows, and just about any other MS Product.. Not sure about their specialty products(MOM, SMS, etc...)

I have installed IE7.0 on 2 machines. 1 is just my regular machine (laptop that just about always works fine) The other is a new install of WinXPSP2 When I go to Windows Update. the first couple parts are right but when I select custom for my installation method.. the updates show up in the left frame(as opposed to the center frame(normal)) I installed it on the second fresh install as my control factor in my testing. The same thing happens on both machines.. Is anyone else seeing this.. is this just a beta glitch.. NOTE:My updates install automatically, I am not having a problem.. just wondering if anybody else experienced the same thing with IE7 as I did.

This should not be the case.. exactly what hardware are you trying to install? Have you searched the manufacturers site for the most up to date drivers? Home and Pro will be compatible with the same set of drivers.

I am yet to install it but from what i have seen on a few screenshots, there is an option to "Load Drivers" http://www.winsupersite.com/images/showcas...98-clean-08.jpg Is this option available to you?

Sounds like a DNS issue.. did you join the computer to a domain? Have you logged onto it successfully yet? From what I have read so far.. Vista has a few network drivers issues. Can you verify that the network is infact working?

Just trying to cover the basics... If you can connect from the lan but not from the lan. Is this RRAS server infront of or behind a firewall. If it is behind a firewall make sure you have port 1723 open to the RRAS server. Error 721 means the remote computer cannot see the server on port 1723. What is it that could be blocking it from the wan side What firewall do you have in front of it.
