Nice one, glad to help cheers!

So you say that the internet is done via your server? If so is it ISA? and can you plug his laptop in behind the server (eg straight into the router) that will rule out the server (or more specifically an ISA rule) as the cause. As im sure your aware BT's DNS Servers are 194.74.65.68 and 194.74.65.69 so just incase you need them to resolve stuff behind the server then thats the ones you need. I cant think of much else off top of my head but that should give you something to try fingers crossed!

If it works from the Wlan and not the Lan then surely there is an issue with the lan drivers. Also its a long shot but check his HOSTS file, a big list can cause name resolution delays. Other than that who is your ISP, what is your network schematic? thanks:)

XP start menu anyday. Not that i ever use it, i think i know the run command for everything il ever need lol

yeah nvidias drivers in vista are terrible they account for 70% of the BSODs i see nowadays

use group policy to force the windows update settings out to the clients.

Lol @ Clubertis comments, its the same thing i thought when i read this post. Come on guys you know if your password is secure it doesnt take a website to tell you that

can you elaborate on what it is you are looking to purchase?

wow another 7900 that has died, jesus christ they belong in landfills not computers lol

check your c:\windows\minidump folder. are the any *.dmp files there? if so upload one somewhere and link it, one of us will tell you what the issue is

Always been a fan of regshot, but this is just that bit better. Many thanks!

you say that you have set the share permissions, have you set the NTFS permissions? is the computer a member of the domain? and are you logged on with an account on that domain with enough security to access the folder?

Hi, there is an article from microsoft here that has helped me many a time in the past with setting up OWA and OMA, hope it helps. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/883380/en-us CAUTION use at your own risk! it has worked for me as i say, but please be careful

i would love to use Vista X64 on a day to day basis but i cannot run peer guardian due to the whole WHQL Drivers thing. So for the time being i use XP X64 although honestly i cannot wait until the day i switch to Vista X64 permanently

I believe that the registrar of a domain, in your case example.org must own the authorative name servers for the domain. This means that 1) you can register the domain with whoever you wish - they are the registrar 2) you can create DNS records anywhere on the internet with any name server......BUT they aint gonna mean jack to no-one, the only ones that matter are the onese held by the authorative name server, they are the ones propogated across the net during zone transfers. regarding the third level; if you type in http://example.org you will be taken via an A record to example.org for example: example.org - A - 80.22.243.31 similarly if you then type in FTP://example.org you will visit the same place, but on a different port. and assuming it is configured, you will be prompted for credentials etc. both of these require as explained a single A record to have been created on the authorative nameserver. Lastly, for anything to actually be at example.org, whether its http or ftp you must have a host. this host can be anywhere on the planet, it could be in your house, as long as you have an A record created on the authorative nameserver telling every other DNS server that example.org is at your IP address (also assuming you have the ports forwarded at home lol) I hope this helps, if you have any questions please ask

it will depend on the type of Connection that the virtual systems have, if you can select the actual ethernet port of the box they are running on as their network adapter both should pick up an IP on the same range as your physical machine if you have a dhcp server. Im not very familiar with VMWare though so i dont know if what i am saying is possible (although im sure it is) try it out and post back

you say "virtual environment" do you mean its running in vmware or virtual pc?

there is a key update tool available from microsoft, i cannot verify if it works with 2003 but its worth a try

this is a vista like theme http://www.sokoolz.com/addons/r64/Ricks_Vi...ddOn_v1.4.1.rar choose the 'black' once installed, its the best

try turning off memory remap, i think i did that too. Im not sure about the drive tho. I used an IDE to install mine

run dxdaig from the run box and turn the sound acceleration down, does the problem still occur?

mine is almost identical and X64 installed in no less than 20 mins. check your Media or the drive itself, it has to be the cause. If not run memtest 86+ and windows memory diagnostics and see what they pickup

there is some sort of filtering in place. Is the WLAN encrypted? if not then there will be a high level of filtering due to the fact anyone can connect.

no, because the date is the "Last Modified Date" and a copy counts as a modification, sorry!

unplug all your drives except the one you want windows on and reinstall it.
