Verify that your monitor is capable of displaying the default resolution that your game uses. For example, in NHL08, the default resolution for the menu is 800x600, and is not displayable on certain LCD monitors that are not capable of that resolution. Unfortunately, the only solutions to those issues would be patches from the developer, application modification or running in an emulator or windowed mode.

So let's start out with looking at your paths. You specify H:\ which either means you mapped a network drive in a previous action or you are copying off a drive physically connected to the computer at the time of install. I am going to guess that the Setup cannot find the path you are referring to, or is getting denied to connect to it. If this is a network path, try using a UNC path as the Unattended Windows Setup Reference uses as an example. EDIT: I was confused by the code that you posted, as it included extra info not (immediately) relevant to your post.

Verify that the Theme service is running, if not then Start it and change its type to Automatic.

Well to start, it would appear that someone forgot the Administrator password or someone was trying to guess it. Windows had attempted to lock out the Administrator account because the total number of logon failures determined by your Group Policy settings had been exceeded. This was likely to have been done via an outside method. It may be possible that AD was denied locking out the Administrator account if it was actively being used to run specific services. So that being said, here are some questions... 1. Is this referring to the domain or local computer Administrator account? 2. Have you recently changed the password for either account? 3. Does any of the clients, or server applications use a static method of connecting to the server, by way of a script or program or any remembered password methods? 4. If 3 is correct, are any of those methods set up to automatically connect to the account every x amount of seconds, for example if you have an email client that connects to your mail server to access the Administrator email account but the password was changed or the client is configured wrong. 5. Does your network have the ability to be connected to by outside your domain, such as a VPN? 6. Try to map a network drive from a client to the server using the Administrator account to see if it works or gives you an error. And lastly, please post the "Data" that the event is referring to, which is located in the textbox (the hex info) below the Description field.

I'm not sure I understand the behaviours that the clients are experiencing. Are they receiving errors, or are they logging into the wrong domains?

I believe that this is in the Start Menu as Firefox (Safe Mode).

games uninstallation problem - vista sp1
Tripredacus replied to The Day Walker!'s topic in Windows Vista
Also make sure you didn't run any cleaner tools since you installed them, such as CCLeaner. These programs like to remove uninstall temp and temporary files which the installer might have needed to uninstall properly. -
whats the "REAL" hard drive size requirement for Vista Busin
Tripredacus replied to arachnyd's topic in Windows Vista
My standard Vista Business x32 image is 9.7GB. That is without drivers, but does include SP1 and dotnetfx 3.5. -
By "not on any map" do you mean that we do not have your country as an option in the User CP? BTW I hope you can learn many things here like the rest of us.

How Many MSFNers have a Windows Mobile Device/Phone
Tripredacus replied to PC_LOAD_LETTER's topic in The Poll Center
I am like that too. But since cell phones are pretty popular now, I know a few people who have their old phones after they got new ones. So sometimes if you know someone who is getting a new phone, maybe you can get their old phone. That's how I got my current phone, it was someone's old phone. It was better than my old (first) one anyways. Most times I can get one for free or for cheap from people that I know like relatives, etc. -
I forgot, I'm pretty fierce on the air guitar.

It is not likely a driver issue. You may also check to see if you are using any Domain Group Policies that are rejecting the MININT. Or perhaps you need to pre-qualify the PE if your server is set up to only accept certain connections, such as Trusted computers, etc.
-
I've also had difficulty getting an unattended XP from running off the hard drive in this way. I am not sure if I had the same error as you, but I tried multiple different steps. In my case, my "OS files" were a WIM capture of the C drive after the Text Mode reboot. I didn't research the issue any further, but I figured that this idea would work. Where did you get your OS files from and/or how did you prepare them?

You do not need anything extra. Verify that you can use this same net use command on another (non PE booted) client to verify that you have access. You may also try re-arranging your syntax, although from what I understand the order does not matter. I use the following command: net use \\server\share Password /user:user While the domain\user may work, you can also try without putting the domain\ or computername\ part in there to see what happens. The error you are getting means that you are in-fact getting a response from the server, but it doesn't like that account, that password, or that account doesn't have access to the share path, or that account doesn't have NTFS or Domain permissions set properly, etc. So try your command out on another Windows client to see if you get a similar error.

It appears that Cisco has methods to protect you if you have their hardware. I'll try looking into other options next week if this is still an active topic.

Also, which version of IE8? I could not open IE8 Beta 1 on my computer after I installed it. But indeed, you need to post more info, including: IE version Firefox version XP version total RAM free hard drive space amount
-
What happens when you have it do a restart? Does the computer turn off? I would imagine that if this is indeed an issue with the boot sector, it wouldn't matter how the computer was booting up.
-
I heard that Starter Edition (the one that would be most available in SEAsia) would be released earlier... Not sure about that though.

Is this Mobility or a video card? -
Win2003 client fails to boot restored using WinPe 2.0
Tripredacus replied to Mandar K's topic in Windows PE
My first question was if my reply or the reply with the links helped you at all. I have not attempted to use 2003 with WinPE yet but I doubt i will get that chance. I have not yet had the opportunity to streamline our server deployments, and time constraints make me think this is far off for me. Rest assured, I will try to remember this issue in case I get this chance. -
Integrating Update Patches Tool

Was either of our posts helpful to you? -
My Computer icon and user files deleted, maybe virus?
Tripredacus replied to IceBlackIce's topic in Windows XP
No this is new to me. My first question is whether or not the user saves their files in their profile (%user profile%) such as My Documents or on the desktop. I have seen profile corruption occur where files disappear. So here are some questions to get you started: 1. Does the user save his files in the profile directory? 2. On the Vista computer, is the UAC enabled? 3. Is the user in the Administrators group? (you might want to make his account a Limited-User account) Maybe I can think of more questions later. -
Yes it should also stop it during the apply. The difference is that you will still be left with files on the hard drive, unlike the capture process which will delete the file. So you are still going to have to format the drive again if you put the wrong image on it. Is your image time very long? My worst case scenario it would only take 4 minutes to image a machine, so if I used the wrong image I could easily redo it.
