    Citrix Printing Problem - Print Spooler Service Stops on Servers

    We ONLY use native drivers to server 2003. If it's not there, we don't install it. First we map all the printer drivers to something else if we can find a compatible native driver... ie hp color laser 5500 to a 4500. If we don't find one that way, We use the Citrix Universal Printer and the...

    Problem loading XP Media Center on new laptop with SATA drives

    Yes you either need to make the setting above or get one of the select few USB floppy drives that the windows set-up will take. You will not have this problem with Vista. One other option is to slipstream the driver onto you windows set-up disc. The program n-lite is an easy way to do that...

    You can try editing the path in the registry. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services] You should see your service in there and what path it points to.

    Garbled printing using ICA client 10.0 for XP.

    He should just have to do a printer mapping in the management console. That way you can leave the client driver as is for local printing and it will mount as printer driver X when the user prints from citrix.

    Garbled printing using ICA client 10.0 for XP.

    Are you using native drivers on your citrix server? If not, you should be. Map the client's printer to a native 2003 printer driver and it should go away.

    Imaging

    RIS would be the most cost effective as long as you have a server to spare and the space. It's a little more difficult to get going, but I really like it compared to other imaging solutions. Otherwise go with sysprep with Ghost/Acronis and the like...

    Can you load a registry hive with VBS?

    Thanks guys. I've already used reg.exe to accomplish what I need. I was just hoping there was a way to do it with VBS script. The VBS script posted uses the reg command as well.

    User passwords in XP

    Keep in mind something like ERD Commander makes your password a moot point if someone physically has your machine. While you SHOULD do everything you can to prevent people from cracking into it, if they want in bad enough they will get in. Strong passwords and encrypting your important files...
