You can try to change the partition type and maybe it will be enough. If not, you can try either Acronis partition expert or Disk director to recover it.

The fastest way shouldn't be the repair install but simply imaging the old disk on the new or cloning it depending on the tools you'll use.

For X64: http://www.nzone.com/object/nzone_download...ta_x64_rc1.html For X86: http://www.nzone.com/object/nzone_download...ta_x86_rc1.html

Try this: - stop spooler service - delete all file in the c:\windows\system32\spool\printers if you didn't move it - start spooler service Check also the disk space available on C:\ if you didn't move the spooler directory. Then if all this doesn't work reboot the server.

I'll rewrite your script like this: IF /I "%COMPUTERNAME%"=="RISSERVER" ECHO "Do not run from Server!!!" && PAUSE && EXIT FOR /D %%i IN (%~dp0Global\Mandatory\*) DO (start "Installing %%~nxi" /wait /D "%%i" "CMD /C %%~si\install.cmd %2" ) FOR /D %%i IN (%~dp0Private\Mandatory\*) DO (start "Installing %%~nxi" /wait /D "%%i" "CMD /C %%~si\install.cmd %2" ) IF /I "exception"=="%1" ( REM Nothing to do here ) ELSE ( FOR /D %%i IN (%~dp0Global\optional\*) DO (start "Installing %%~nxi" /wait /D "%%i" "CMD /C %%~si\install.cmd %2" ) FOR /D %%i IN (%~dp0Private\optional\*) DO (start "Installing %%~nxi" /wait /D "%%i" "CMD /C %%~si\install.cmd %2" ) )

Did you installed chipset drivers for your motherboard ?

Try to boot from a CD using this CD/DVD reader. If it doesn't boot then it is most likely out of order and you'll need to replace it.

I had the same kind of problems with the Asus P5B and thier first bios: it didn't support double sided memory in dual channel mode.

Uncheck the box at lower side then close it with the cross and it should be ok.

Cutepdf and freepdf.

You simply need to modify this setting in the bios.

I don't there is a standalone dll or .exe which is used to copy from drag and drop. Explorer.exe handle this task by itself.

Try to low format your drive with the hard drive manufacturer utility. This might solve your problems.

You might try this: for /f "delims=;" %%i in ( 'dir /b "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\" ') do (if not "%%i"=="index.dat" del /F /s /q "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\%%i")

What 's the error code if there is one ?

If you want to boot from an external drive, as far as i know the best choice is e-sata or usb 2.0.

I don't know for pcmcia sata II but if you're going to buy an external case you should find one with e-sata/usb 2.0 and if you want firewire and ethernet because if you have low speed with usb 2 (like i had) you'll be able to try with another interface. For me the fastest was firewire. Also if you're going to buy an external case, you'll have to be sure to choose a case which will allow you to use the hard drive you choose. Because some case doesn't allow you to read or write more than 128Gb.

You might also check the network cables.

Perhaps that was a password requirement as you can set policy to disable "easy" passwords. Run gpedit.msc, go to computer config, windows parameters, security parameters, account policy, password policy. If you set something too complex there you'll have a hard time finding a password matching your settings.

You can still do a convert.exe after the first boot of the 2k. Also what happen when you try to boot with ntfs ? Does it boot and crash right after ?

With 2003, you must uninstall from add/remove windows components the component terminal server and then check the checkbox allow remote desktop user on computer properties. The method described by Crahak should work only with 2000.

You can also use a batch script with netsh.exe.

There is a simple trick to solve this issue: don't use secondcopy on the shared drive letters but on the same share the users use.

The only i can think is a local policy with a startup script which will delete/disable disallowed accounts.
