Well I guess it's been quite a while since we bought anything new! I was aware of HT, but never paid it much attention - guess I have a little research to do. Thank you both. [morning] Darts. "Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday" -- Dale Carnegie.

I have installed an identical second processor kit in a 6-month old IBM eSeries x345 server and it seems to be woking splendidly. However, I was surprised to see that the CPU Usage History graph in the Performance tab of Task manager has been split into four panes rather than the expected...

Background: I have enabled IIS 5.0 services on an existing Win2K Advanced server. I created and configured a website using the new website wizard giving it a name and separate ip address along the way. The server has 2 NICs and tcp/ip is the only transport protocol. IP Properties of NIC #1...

Found a "Notandum for Windows XP Service Pack 1" while looking around for a similar problem with Win2K on a 9100. This didn't help me 'cos its specific to XPSP1, but maybe it will help you or someone else... The Yamaha driver AC-XG uses the "PortCls" function for checking...

I'll second the motion by jtb to replace that server pronto. Not only is it now unsupported by Dell, certain replacement parts may be extremely hard to find - as I found out the hard way! It may well last another 5 years, but it could cough it's guts out in 5 minutes... Can you or your...

You don't need the reskit for this, just look under Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Shared Folders... Users and open files etc are in there. You can also get to the same place via MMC if you prefer using that. Darts [morning] "Today is the tomorrow you...

Hmmm... I had a similar problem a while back when I was unable to join a W2K machine to an NT4 domain and got the same 'can't find..' messages (even though the PDC and BDCs were in sync). Someone suggested I manually add the machine ID of the workstation to the domain first, and then try...

This doesn't directly address your question, but a simple password protected screensaver that kicks in after x minutes of inactivity might do in the short term (we use the Logon Screen Saver as our default). Around here we have a company policy that says users are not supposed to leave their...

Check out www.firedaemon.com for a great utility that lets you run an app as a service. More info at the web page... Hope this helps solve your dilemma. Cheers! Darts [morning] "Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday" -- Dale Carnegie.

SP3 was installed rather painlessly (no errors/warnings) about three weeks ago. No special MS hotfixes have been applied. Looking at archived event logs, these error messages pre-date SP3 and actually go back at least a couple of months, but they seem to be getting more frequent. Lately they...

This may be something like what you're looking for... Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Shared Folders > Open Files or if you prefer using mmc, use the fsmgmt.msc snapin - it opens up the same thing. You can even double-click the .msc file directly (it's in the...

I've been getting these Event ID 2510 messages for a couple of weeks (sample below), but haven't got a clue where they are coming from. Nothing unusual otherwise, but I hate getting all these red X's. M$ has a couple of articles about eventID 2510, but they reference other error codes. This...

D'OHH!, Must've hit 'Submit Post' before giving this a proper title... sorry.

Setting: Toshiba Tecra laptop + XP Pro. 2 profiles - Office (dock) and Mobile (no dock). Problem: Hangs on boot about 50% of the time (in either profile), then reset button must be pressed as even the power switch becomes non-functional. It either gets hung on agp440.sys - that's as far as...

When upgrading BIOS don't forget to do the ESD and PERC FW as well - actually you'll get an out of date nag message on bootup if the BIOS rev gets too far ahead. I got burned about a year ago - a RAID container on a PE4300 went bad and system wouldn't boot(can't find boot partition). Dell...

Good suggestion imathec - it worked, however because I'm not a domain admin on this network it was a bit of an adventure (Corp I.T. is short staffed due to summer vacations, so for the next few weeks they are only handling 'emergencies') I had to follow that theoretical procedure outlined in...

Thanks for the reply CoolClark, however I managed to get that far by myself. It's after putting in the credentials that the message indicating the machine has no corresponding computer account. Or are you saying the account ought to be created automatically when the domain is joined? If so...

I am a container admin on a larger network and have the abilility to create computer accounts on the NT4.0 domain. We have a new Win2K Advanced server that needs to be joined to the existing domain as a member server. When I specify the domain name I get prompted for credentials - so far, so...
