    PE1600SC - 2nd Xeon Processor

    Thanks for the info. This turned into a bit of a saga with Dell. I already had a spare Xeon processor which I intended to use. Unfortunately the power connector on Intel branded heatsink fan, was of a totally different design to that accepted by the motherboard. I tried to order another fan...

    RAID 5 - Extending Partitions

    Thanks - the exact answer! I hadn't noticed the disks were basic and not dynamic. Changing the status allowed me to extend the volume. Sometimes you just can't see the wood for the trees.

    RAID 5 - Extending Partitions

    Hi - We have a PE1600SC, 4 disks in a Raid 5 config using the PERC4 controller. OS is Windows 2003. Currently the RAID array is split into 4 partitions with 70GB unallocated space. I'd like to either extend the partitions or add a new one but Disk Management doesn't give the option. I seem...

    Word 2000 Closes Down When Certain Text Typed

    A user running Word 2000 has done something to her Word setup so that when she types in the first 3 letters of her name, Word closes down. I guess she's somehow put a shortcut in to alt+f4 but I can't find out how or where it is to remove it. Has anyone had a similar experience and if so...

    Terminal Services & Adobe PageMaker

    Thanks brontosaurus. My concer was whether her screen would refresh quickly enough given the complexity of some of the graphics and the speed of connection. Other techies are of the opinion there may be a significant problem with lag. I guess we're just going to have to test it out and see if...

    We have an NT server with 56k modem for RAS clients. Our network uses fixed IP addresses, not DHCP. I have a laptop which users want to use from home to access the company LAN. The laptop runs Windows 2000 SP3 and has a static IP assigned for when it's used on the LAN. The same IP address is...

    Can't Access Some Restored Mailboxes

    Just before our old Exchange 5.5 server died, I backed up the Private and Public Information Stores. After building a new server I restored the databases from the backed up copies. The Private Info store restored and I could see the users mailboxes but I couldn't access them. I created new...
