    Retrieve Deparment and map network printer accordingly

    I'm very limited in the freedom I have on the Domain Controllers. The script is not going to be implemented via login, but rather as we deploy the new machines to the users. I'm just going to make it a task of the team setting up the new 2k workstations to double-click on the vbs file to install...

    Retrieve Deparment and map network printer accordingly

    I have very minimal vbscript knowledge, and I was asked to come up with a script that will retrieve the user's Department in AD, and assign network printers accordingly. Our AD isn't structured well, and all users sit in the USER container and are not separated by OUs. Any help would be great!

    Automated Installation of winXP and OfficeXP advice needed

    Even with Ghost or other imaging software, there are minor tasks required for setup. If you use Ghost and Sysprep combined, you can eliminate most of the driver setup, but you're still required to enter the computer name on startup. If you are going to use the image route (Ghost and Sysprep)...

    Remote Desktop vs. other remote products

    We use Remote Administrator 2.1 in our location. It runs fairly "thin" over WAN connections, and seems to be a fairly good solution.

    how to flash BIOS and install cpu

    depending on the BIOS manufacturer, you normally update or flash the BIOS from a floppy. Some manufacturers have utilities that allow you to update the BIOS from within the operating system. Either way, you'll need to put the old processor back in to at least be able to boot to floppy or OS.

    185 Watt Power Supply in a Pentium 4?

    Martin, If you can point me in the direction of those calculators, it would be much appreciated. 185 watts should be plenty of power for the average desktop, but we're adding high end graphics cards, usb wireless mice, and gig NIC cards to a few select machines. These are critical machines...
