Google to the rescue. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=S...amp;btnG=Search http://www.bioticaindia.com/trution-twc-1200.html The other one you posted is just the company name, not a model number.

OK I gots a question. My test server runs Server 2003 Standard 32bit. It has an Intel gigabit NIC, and connected to a NetGear gigabit switch. Yet in the Task Manager, Network tab, it only shows up as 100Mbps. Our other server which has the same OS, NIC(s) and Switch(es) shows up as 1000Mbps. What am I missing?

Yep I am not having any functional problems anymore. The only issue is that it seems to reject any legit security certificate it comes across. For example, the one used by our Trend Micro webinstaller intranet site. Our IE7 clients accept it but IE8 outright rejects it, although it does allow you to proceed. Since its a beta I can forgive it.

I could probably get a faster boot up if I could figure out how to switch to that non-CCC ATI display driver. I didn't know about that when I installed so I have like 5+ services for ATI...

How do you install software if you are a limited-user account without installation priveledges? What program are you using to assign keyboard shortcuts?

Which could be the cause of right-click causing a several-seconds-sleep while system "thinks" about what to do...? I think the virus some days ago attempted installing on my system (a trojan contained in a.exe and immediately detected and stopped by Avast) actually had time to do something malicious.... There is a registry setting that determines the amount of time between the right click and the appearance of the menu. They use a time delay to compensate for the eventual case of having too many items in such menu. But you can certainly change this value and get the menu to appear faster. I don't actively use this tweak so I can't tell you how to do it, but you should be able to find it in a tweak guide. Besides, that is a cool name for a program... a.exe...

Are you manually installing the SP1 redist or did you slipstream it into your install?

Its usually the motherboard for me. I typically try to get the newest one out there at the time, although by the time I actually buy it, it might be a 2 months old.

I tried this out. I installed it, and it ended up hosing up my explorer where it would crash every now and then. The search feature didn't work at all and I kept getting occache.dll errors in the event viewer. I had to reinstall it and so far I have no errors but we will see how it goes. All this and I haven't even tried to open it yet!

The normal install method is: - insert cd1, start install. it prompts for CD Key. - after GUI Mode is complete it prompts for CD2. it does not prompt for a CD Key. Did it prompt for CD2 or did you just try to install it after the fact? I am pretty sure that if you cancel the prompt after GUI Mode that it hoses up the install, which happened once for me. I have never tried to manually install the contents of CD2. EDIT: sorry, I have also used CD2 when Add/Remove Windows Components prompts for it.

Oh ... uh... ewww you use a universal XP image...

Don't forget about deleting your temporary internet files AND temporary files. Most of your temp files are located in c:\documents and settings\profile\local settings\temp. Also if your profile is larger than the amount of physical memory (RAM) you have in your computer, that will make things slow as well. And besides, a year isn't an old install at all.

How does it reappear? I've never had it re-appear on me before and I have multiple languages installed on every computer I use...

For me, its hard to answer this question. My computer (at home) takes between 2 and 3 minutes to boot. There are a few snags. Part is due to me having an older Intel board which takes 20-30 seconds with the Intel splash screen at POST, then the 30 second menu from the boot.ini, and then I have the welcome prompt where I click my username because I don't use automatic logon. But it's my professional opinion is that if you have to keep reformating your drive and reinstalling Windows because it is getting too slow, then you aren't doing something right or learning your lesson from the last time. Keep tabs on your services and startup apps (yes it is nearly impossible to stop the QuickTime app from loading), remove old drivers for hardware after you stop using it and don't save files in your User Profile (My Documents, My any other folder name or the desktop).

Hacked internally, yes, but the same would be true if there was a virus or other malicious program installed on the computer.

Wow, we have some old-timer here , I bought one in 1997 and loved it with Hexen .I go with ATI too these days, just for their better Vista drivers a while ago. I like my 2600XT as it does the job well without giving me some DLL error from time to time. ah Hexen... aka Heretic II or do I have that backwards... You try nowadays to spend $200 on a 6MB video card... But I bought it to play GL Quake, I didn't play Hexen on the PC only the Nintendo 64. I liked Hexen II tho.

I'm pretty sure you are supposed to use a relative path to the drivers from the location of sysprep.exe. So ..\..\..\nt\drivers\network\winVista presuming sysprep is located in c:\windows\system32\sysprep. Also you are already using drivers on teh C drive, I imagine you are copying them there during install? How does this differ than putting them in the image? Have you compared deployment time with this method vs injecting them in the image?

I agree, check your NIC drivers after Windows is done. When we run sysprep, it removes the NIC drivers sometimes. Our MS rep says sysprep is designed to do that and is malfunctioning if it allows the drivers to remain installed for some reason.

sorry i dont think anybody read that because i put an accidental quote after it. I read it. I wouldn't trust any Windows patches not acquired from Microsoft.com. Why did you opt to get it from a third party website?

In order to set this up on your own website you need the favicon.ico in your public_html root. And also add the appropriate code to your .htaccess file.

I chose ATI but that isn't my favorite. I started being a dedicated 3dfx guy, as my first 4 video cards were 3dfx. They were the Voodoo Rush, Voodoo 2, Voodoo 3, and the Voodoo 5500. There was a Riva TNT2 in that timeline someplace tho... By default I ended up getting an nVidia card (PNY GeForce 3 Ti200) which I used until just recently. I bought an ATI card recently because the price was good, had a decent amount of RAM and worked in a 4x AGP slot. I haven't been disappointed with it at all, so I have switched to ATI for now.

I just tried the facebook chat. Is is possible to have more than one person in a "room" with that? I tried to figure it out but I couldn't. I wish you could change what sound it makes when you get a message also. It definately isn't an IM replacement. I would say that only 2% of my buddy list is on Facebook, if that, and plus you have to be actively on the site in order for it to work. And lastly, facebook chat makes the browser lag down when you receive a message.

Well it doesn't hurt to try. To be safe, don't activate Windows right away. We didn't activate our 2008 server until day 27 because we wanted to make sure it would do everything we wanted it to.

There should be an error message too. Did you check that debug log? Everywhere else online I find a similar message there is an actual error given. Are you able to resolve DNS in the command prompt or connect to a UNC path?

what is the name of the function? i cant seem to find it..i only have 14 items on my welcome center.. (view computer details,transfer file and settings,add new users,windows anytime upgrade,connect to the internet,what's new in windows vista,personalize windows,register windows online,windows media center,windows basics,ease of access center,back up and restore center,windows vista demos,control panel) It might be Backup and Restore Center....? http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/documen...ocname=bph08097 http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/fastFaq...cname=c00809678
