    Changing where XP creates NEW user profiles

    That would also work, but that's what I got Deep Freeze for. I just want it to lock the system partition (C:). The D: drive I don't want restored to a previous state. Hence, why I want all new users created on the machine to automagically be created on the D: drive. I know it can be done...

    Changing where XP creates NEW user profiles

    Ok. I'm locking down the C: drive with a program called Deep Freeze. This computer is for public use, and I'm trying to mitigate any potential damage to it from improper usage.

    Changing where XP creates NEW user profiles

    I'm trying to get XP SP3 to create user profiles for brand-new users on a different drive. I don't care about existing profiles. I don't need to move them. I just need all subsequent profiles on D:. The only things I've found that relate to changing the default location are to either 1. use...

    CD won't burn - not a hardware problem?

    @cdogg: Yup. Made the edit and rebooted. Didn't help.

    CD won't burn - not a hardware problem?

    It was the cable. I swapped the cable (both the original and new one) to the secondary channel and it didn't help. In fact, Windows (and the BIOS, for that matter) didn't even recognize the drive existed! Just a new cable in the primary channel worked fine. I did the registry edit, too, just...

    CD won't burn - not a hardware problem?

    Yes, same driver. Also, the burner used to work just fine in the trouble machine. The CD is IDE (cable) No, I have not moved the cable to a different slot. I suppose there might be a problem with one of the IDE channels...or even the cable itself. Yes, the CD device shows up in the device...

    CD won't burn - not a hardware problem?

    Hi folks, I got a weird one here... I have a CD burner that won't burn CDs. You can add files to be ready to be burned, but once you start the wizard and click Next, it tells you there is NO CD in the drive. This is not true. I've tried the CD burner in a different machine (XP SP 3, all...

    Migrating user data from local computer to server?

    Thanks. I did look at the link. The GPO seems to be done correctly. The link also suggested I add a key to the registry. HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Diagnostics does not exist. Adding the key and value does nothing (no log). Also, this is what I'm doing when I try to...

    Migrating user data from local computer to server?

    Okay, here's what I got. * I used moveuser.exe to transfer the policy settings and files from the local user account on Computer Number One (an XP machine) to the domain account, also on Computer Number One. * I edited the GPO to allow for folder redirection. * I logged on as the user, then...

    Migrating user data from local computer to server?

    Okay then... so, if I understand this right, these are the steps: 1. Join the computer to the domain (already modified the GPO for folder redirection) 2. Log on as the user 3. Manually copy from the user's local account to their new domain account 4. Log off and let the magic happen! Seems...

    Migrating user data from local computer to server?

    Ok, but does that automagically transfer a user's documents and settings from the local computer to a server?

    Migrating user data from local computer to server?

    Anyone out there got a good guide/recommendation/etc? I'm trying to migrate people's documents/pictures/settings/etc from their local computers and have it all stored on the AD server. Running Windows Server 2008. All client computers are (primarily) XP SP3, with a few Windows 7s thrown in...

    Can't run EXEs after virus removal, regedit is also broken

    @GrimR I got the AVG Rescue CD (bootable). I'm checking out the registry editor that comes with it. I see that AVG's registry editor loads the registry up by hive (SAM, Security, Software, System and Default). Which of these 5 hives holds HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT? Or is it hidden somewhere else...

    Can't run EXEs after virus removal, regedit is also broken

    Hi. I'm trying to fix a friend's computer. It was/is infected with what I believe is "Antivirus 2010" (ave.exe). Well, ave.exe appears to be gone, but now executable files will not run. Instead, when I try to run an executable, the "Open With" dialog box comes up. I've found fixes for this...

    Trying to get a report element to update from another table

    ...or I could just ditch the report the other guy made and make one from scratch. ;) Oh, and the combobox thing was the bees knees. Yes, I said "bees knees." No, I'm not 73. Thanks, guys.

    Trying to get a report element to update from another table

    I hope the subject is descriptive enough... Anyway, here's the problem. I have a text box element on a report that is associated with one table. I need it to display results based off of a value in that table that relates to a second table. Example: I have the text box currently displaying...

    Netscreen 5XT and SNMP--agent won't talk to manager?

    I have a Netscreen 5XT, hardware ver 3010, software ver 4.0.1r10.0, and I can't seem to get SNMP to work right. I get the following error: "SNMP request from XX.XX.XX.XX:1387 to XX.XX.XX.YY:161 has been received, but the SNMP version type is incorrect." To start (and this may actually fix my...

    Port Scan attempts...what do I do?

    I have been getting this odd warning for the past few days. I understand that port 3128 is used by squid proxy servers. I notified the ISP of this as soon as I saw it...they have NO IDEA what's going on, nor do they seem willing to try and fix the problem. Ideas? Here's the warning: [00001]...

    Can't uninstall Internet Explorer 8

    Oh lord, that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Why would Microsoft do that? OK, I'll give it a try. Thanks!
