shortcut pointing to network share causes reboot


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am stuck with an odd problem...

We have a Win 2k3 AD which my login.vbs creates shortcuts on bootup.

These scripts execute a program on a network share \\program\program.exe

for about 75% of my users whenever they click on it, the computer (XP SP2) simply reboots!

I am stuck, any thoughts?

Thanks!

The problem as I see it is not with network share, but with application...

Check %windir%\MiniDump, if you can see any files inside...

I'll log in and take a look, however even bginfo caused a reboot when ran from a network share (unix, samba share)

Thank you.

We are testing out the udpated driver on five machines and I will let you know!

I apprecaite your help in this.

Also, is it possible to push this driver update via a .vbs script or GPO?

Thanks again!

so far so good.

We have had no reboots reported in the last 24 hours, which is sadly, a record.

So it seems to have taken care of the problem.

As for WSUS, I have never touched it before.

How dummy proof is it, last thing I want to do is really muck everythign up.

Thanks again!!
