There is never a BSOD occurring.
It is either in a reboot loop or mentions a system32 file missing on bootup (SAM for example). It's not always the same file.
The problem has been happening since about October 2013.
Hi all,
In the company I work for, hundreds of Windows XP PC's have stopped booting up.
Either they get stuck in a reboot loop or state missing files in System32.
In all cases, running a chkdsk /r from the Windows XP CD resolves the problem.
But I want to know what's causing this as it's very...
I've d'loaded PsService, that looks to be ideal. How would I go about scripting it in a batch file.
I can use - psservice find [servicename]
this lists the pcs with that service running....
How would I then tell it to 'disable' that service on all those pcs that it was found on?
pskill just...

Hi all,
I work for a company who has over 8000 pcs on the network.
We are running a mix of XP and Win2K.
Recently random pcs are running extremely slowly (also giving virtual memory low errors). Openning 'My Computer' for example takes ages.
If I run any of these pc's in safe mode then they...
MrNick0483 - You are right, but it doesnt tell me if the port is not in use, someones pc might just be turned off at the time. So i need to see that if a port is off on the switch, how long has it been off for.
Burtsbees - I'll have a play with comparing those and see if it give me a good...
Hi all,
We have a cisco switch and all ports are currently used up.
Is their a command/program I can use to query the switch so that I can find out what ports have not been used for a long time etc. As some may not be in use anymore.
And I dont feel like tone tracing all the ports :-)
Thanks

I ran process explorer and found that 'hardware interrupts' was spiking.

Hi All,
Many times at work I get faulty systems reported to me that wont boot up or are missing a system file etc. All of which can usually be fixed by Windows System Recovery Console.
However, I'm looking for a boot disk that can automatically do this for me and fix/repair/replace system...
Hi All,
I have to look after several mailboxes at once, and it is only on my main mailbox that I can have the Display Alert appear.
Is there a way I can get a Display alert for new messages in one of the other mailboxes? Even if I require third party software.
Thanks

Again, bare in mind that...
