    128MB memory stick?

    Thank you all for your thoughts. No it is not a driver issue. Yes I have tried it on multiple machines and get the same results. I don't care that I lost the data that was on there, I just want to be able to use the device again. It's like having an unformatted HD in you computer, the OS sees...

    GPO disable Hibernation/Standby?

    Thanks bcastner, sounds like more of a pain than it's worth. I was hoping for a simple GPO, but obviously MS is sleeping on the job again :) Thanks anyway.

    GPO disable Hibernation/Standby?

    Does anyone know if there is a way to disable hibernation using group policy? Also, is there a way to set the standby settings using group policy? If it these can't be done with a GPO, is there another way to do this for all users on the network? Thank you Scott

    Scheduled task monthly onlogon?

    I was using the schtasks.exe /create command to create the task from a batch file, but you can only choose Monthly or Onlogon with the /sc switch. What is a "date test"? Thanks

    Outlook Express - Accents/Symbol?

    How do you insert a symbol in outlook express. For example, in Word, if you want to insert an "e" with an accent over it, you go to Insert, Symbol. How do you get a letter with an accent in Outlook Express? Thanks

    Hide Disk Cleanup as Scheduled Task

    linney- thanks for the registry location, that solves one issue :) I still need to find out if it's possible to run an exe hidden or at least minimized. I would think there has to be some kind of DOS command to minimize. Thanks for you help
