    New PC Restart problems

    One of the first things I would do is reset the bios, either by berg pin pull or battery removal. If you can move the video card to a different slot, try it. If you are overclocking, bring the settings back to the defaults. ........................................ "Computers in the future may...

    Windows Server Backup

    I'll just wait and see when disaster strikes and try to make lemonade out of lemons. " Trouble with that is the client will still blame you for the disaster. Best one I have.... Nasty client will not take my advice. I loose the client because he thinks I am creating work for myself by...

    Windows Server Backup

    Not sure but you might be backing up the recovery partition for the C: drive, but NOT the C: drive itself. You should really get a robust backup program, not a freebe MS puts little effort into. ........................................ "Computers in the future may weigh no more than 1.5...

    Hard Disk Storage

    Once all the above is done find the deepest iron mine you can, and rent some space at it's lowest point and store the drive there.

    Advice on DNS setup/configuration

    Have this setup on approximately 25 servers. Leak data? First of all there is no DNS data worth anything, secondly if setup as noted, the outside world has no access to your DNS server or workstations information, firewall blocks it. ........................................ "Computers in...

    Advice on DNS setup/configuration

    Here is what I do..... On your firewall allow your DNS server to reach/search only trusted DNS server ( like DNS servers provided by large ISPs), by adding the trusted DNS servers address as a "forwarder" in the servers DNS setup. With forwarder(s) in place, your internal DNS server is only...

    Windows 10 unusable after 2004 update

    Looks like you have become an unlucky victim of 2004. You should be able to get to system restore in safe mode. If successful I would not attempt 2004 again. https://wccftech.com/and-it-begins-all-the-windows-10-version-2004-known-issues-list/ ...

    Windows 10 unusable after 2004 update

    Had a few updates which required multiple restarts (and re-installs) to get machines running again which is always loads of fun when trying to bill for the time. Then there was a few machines I needed to do an "upgrade install" to recover from an update, not fun. "Sounds kind of like Russian...

    Windows 10 unusable after 2004 update

    This scenario seems to happen more often in the last 4 years due to Microsoft being lax on testing. As to why it happens, it rarely affects multiple machines so I general do not trouble shoot, I do as you did, a system restore, then I repeat the install. 90% of the time it updates with no issue...

    Suggestion for a SoHo "server"

    Dell servers are relatively cheap but not nearly as a decent Dell desktop. For a few user network a full scale server would be nice but not necessary, believe a Win 10 desktop with raid is the best option You know most of this, this is for other readers... Most of the Dell products come with...

    Windows10 Pro

    Well, that's why computer guys are stressed out - illogical problems that come and go. I hope your problem stays away. But, why would it be fixed. " Thoroughly agree about the stress A possibility, one of Microsoft great updates caused the issue, and a newer one which just came in fixed it...

    Win 2003 & IBM X3350 M2 Server (7946AC1)

    Both drives are recognized during the raid array config - 146GB 15K ...." Because the drives are recognized does not mean you have an array capable of being recognized by the OS. Do you have an array, does your raid bios setup show a raid 1 (hopefully not a raid 0)? If not the OS will not see...
