This program is a single exe file and it can run from a local drive, network drive, usb etc. There is no problem with this and it performs ok for any user. The problem is that it creates an ini file in the windows directory and writes to it on exiting. The permissions of the windows directory...

Whoops - filename was wrong - it was WebImage.ini - BUT anyway the copied file with everyone having access to it gets its security changed to the default windows setting using this method meaning the software wont work properly - well it works - its just that it tries to write to that ini...

When I run the vbs i get an error message: line 6 char 1 Error File not found Code 800A0035 Source Microsoft VBScript runtime error It comes with all logins - but the file is there I changed P: to \\server\programs\ but that made no difference - and i did that also because with the P: i got...

Is there a way to add Domain Users to the local administrator group via a script?? This will get the software to work for any user (but not the best option though!).

Thanks heaps, I will try it and see - but it looks as though it could be fruitless given what you said about the user permissions, which I am aware is the basic issue. My computer by computer manual admin login job looks the best bet in the end. Cheers dzm

I manage a small network but dont have any vbs expertise. My problem is that I have a piece of software that writes an ini file to the windows directory on the pc each time it exits. However, only an admin login will enable this to happen - anything below gets a permissions error. If I create...

Yep - or a red or two right now - chances are it will go better than before as i think his grumbles about the pc performace recently were obviously caused by the ram.

Yes - It was a faulty ram stick - running better now on half a memory - wish I could say the same about me! Thanks again. :-D

Thanks Ben - will look into that - it has 2 512 sticks so perhaps take one out at a time and see what happens.

I am trying to reinstall xp onto a pc (a bit on the older side) but have hit a few obstacles. Setup will get as far as reformat and start to load the setup files but at some stage then it will throw up a message that a windows file that can’t be copied correctly and another message that says...

Hey - that looks a real possibility for me to try - thanks a lot. :-D

Ok - thanks heaps - so i guess what i do is when i am notified by windows update on my computer that there are downloads ready to go I make a note of them and then go to the windows update catalog and do a search for them and then download them - once done i can then install them individually...

I have 3 pcs networked at home and rather than each individual pc doing its own updates i would prefer to do it via one download and then distribute them to the others - is that possible??

Hmm - a bit redfaced - but its my son's pc and he has wireless keyborad and mouse - it seems that although I could get into the bios by pressing 'del' it was not reacting to the keyboard prompt to press a key to boot from cd - so connecting a 'normal keyboard' enabled the 'press a key prompt' to...

It has two cd-roms - I tried both with no success. Other cd's run fine on both cd-roms. I suppose I could try another one from a differnt pc

I am trying to reinstall xp onto a computer. It needs to be reformatted 1st. I placed an xp cd into the cd-drive and on boot-up get asked to boot from cd – when I do this it still goes to windows and the set up does not continue. I have tried both cd drives and different xp cd’s. They work ok...

Yes - plenty across two domains and network printers. It was one particular network where the problem was occurring. After posting I discovered that various computers on this network were exhibiting dificulties in different areas such as logging on, shutting down, applications not loading...

All of a sudden any attempt to get to ‘My Computer’ or ‘Explorer’ either directly or through some software results in a ‘not responding’ message on my pc. If I ignore the message and wait - up to 15 minutes - eventually it appears, but then i have to wait for the next connection to be made...

Ok - thanks for all that Tony, much appreciated. For the moment I will reinstall the driver to at least not get that add hardware message. Des

I couldnt find any mention of it in the bios nor in the Belar printout which said this about model: MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD KM400-8237 Main Circuit Board b Board: MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD MS-6734 Bus Clock: 166 megahertz BIOS: Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG 07/28/2004...
