No offense, but you're making this topic on the 30th of Septemer 2004 ???? Man, where have you been for the past 3-4 years LMAO

LMAO man, i'm on a similar, or perhaps worse connection than yours...I feel your pain

Well, be more specific about the problem, as in what error message dialog does it display? Does it cause the system itself to shut down in 60 seconds? If the answer to the question is YES, then I suspect you've somehow been hit by the Sasser or a similar worm which attacks the svchost process. Get a removal tool from F-Secure or Symantec or McAfee. Good Luck

It's really difficult to boot an 2000/XP system minimally in the way you want. The difference, ofcourse, lies in the architecture of these operating systems. The boot up process is fundamentally different than those of 95/98/ME........ But then again, there MIGHT be a way to get the system to bootup in the way you want, you gotta keep searching. Alternatively, you can call MS tech support, if you own legal copies of the OS, that is.. Best of luck to you, and ;et us know if you do find a way

Un-installing it and re-installing it again after a reboot usually solves the issue. Backup any custom configs/skins/plugins before doing so

F-Secure Antivirus for Servers is all you need

Use "Console" to do it, it's a SHELL for CMD.EXE Get it at sourceforge.net, do a search for "Console". The accompanying readme details all what you need to know to get it to work. I'm using it and it works like a charm

n00b question here, I really need to know how to slim down the installation package for WinXP and Win2k3. I'm tired of the multiple GB install size of these OS's....trimming 'em and saving a few hundred MB's is a good idea. Please point me in any direction, links, utilities used, tutorials, how-to's etc... I'll be very grateful

Version 9 is the newest but if you take my advice, dump norton altogether and move to F-Secure. I have F-Secure 5.41 for Windows Servers and it is very effective...

Okay, so I'm running a slipstreamed copy of Windows Server 2003 Enterprise. It's slipstreamed with the leaked SP1 build 1023. Now the problem I face is that even the newer patches (like WindowsServer2003-KB835732-x86-ENU and WindowsServer2003-KB837001-x86-ENU for example) WONT install. They all give the same error...saying that the installed version of the service pack is greater. It says this despite NOT having the particular updates I'm trying to install. Any way to get around this? Please help I don't wanna run an unpatched system
