Hey all, I’m trying to help a user out with their home PC running win2k with the latest and greatest MS updates, SP 4 ‘an all. Long story short when you boot the computer you receive the following: *** STOP: 0x0000007B (0x820B8030, 0xc0000006, 0x0000000000, 0x00000000) INACCESIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE...

I hear your suggestion and I agree with you. However in the situation I am in, I don’t make those decisions, I’m just the guy that gets blamed if it doesn’t work. I have checked with the vendor and talked to software engineers, they say that as of now the product is only compatible with SP1...

Yes Internet Explorer, i ended up just installing IE7, and all was well after a reboot. Yeah i find it interesting myself, you think by now they would have separated the two.

Pat, The paging file is on a separate partition as the exchange data, as for disks, we have (3) 72.8 Gb drives in a RAID-5 array. We don’t really have the means to put the database files on a separate dedicated array, as much as I wish we could, we can’t. As of this morning event id 1221...

Very good question, I look forward to seeing some replies...

Hey all, I have a question about Exchange and Defragmentation. There are a lot of resources out there available that talk about exchange and defragmentation. I am curious as to what the effects of running the disk defragmenter via computer management mmc on an Exchange partition. The drive’s...

Well reinstalling / upgrading IE seemed to fix it for me. Thanks for your help!
