    Hello all, I'm hoping to get a cheap server to use as a host for back ups, file server and web server in the home. This server will be connected to a wireless network which will consist of a Workstation a PC and an iBook. I came across a refurbished HP Netserver LT6000R on eBay for about 150...

    Copying the reg Hive

    cyberspace - If I may, the answer to that I believe is no. The file format is .bkf which can only be opened by the backup/restore application within win so you need to have win working!?! (Don’t know if it works in dos, don’t think it does!) Bit of a catch 22! The main reason to backup such...

    Copying the reg Hive

    Just on a side: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307545 This is the MS support for restoring the reg in a corrupt PC. Reading the fine print and warning can be quite terrifying!!! A blue screen error on friends pc lead me to this article, then the fun started as i tried to get this working...

    Copying the reg Hive

    acl03 - I have already come across this but the issue is that this back up can be quite large (in my home PC it ran to over 300 Mb). My hope was to have something running at the beginning of every boot so that an archive of the reg could be created that could help monitor and maintain a pc. I...

    Copying the reg Hive

    Just had a thought! How could I put a command into the beginning of start up that would copy the registry to say a USB key or a second HDD or an external HDD? Any ideas of where to go? or how to perform an action like this? The idea would be that windows os would not be using the reg hive at...

    Putting XP Startup Disks on CD

    Thanks for the quick reply, MrTBC - Yes you can boot from the CD but if you don't have the proper CD, like if your calling to someone's house to fix their PC, or trying to do a clean install from an upgrade for someone, you need to have the startup disks to really begin for the begining! Also...

    Putting XP Startup Disks on CD

    Hello, Is it possible to place the 6 XP start-up disks onto a cd for easier and faster install/maintenance? If I create a WinPE CD how would I get this to boot the correct files in the correct order? Am I asking too much, should I just keep using the floppy? Any response would be...

    Desktop, Workstation, Server! Which one?

    Stussy, thank for that. I will have en external 300 Gb HHD available and I plan on having that as my back up system while also using some off site storage for weekly/monthly critical back up via DVD. About the internet connection, thank you for that as I only know what i do know form the...

    Desktop, Workstation, Server! Which one?

    Thank you both for that, I'm not going crasy. I was thinking about a refurbished Poweredge SC Server and looking at the specs I couldn't see the difference to a Desktop PC! Is there anything that I should look for in regard to reliability and remote management i.e. how do you make a normal PC...

    Desktop, Workstation, Server! Which one?

    I know this may be the wrong place but I couldn't find a general server forum. I'm hoping to set up a home/small business server. But what do I need? I've built a couple of PCs in my time but never got into networking and I believe it’s about time. What is the difference between a desktop...

    Find location of max value in a Table

    How would you compile these visual results with their coordinates in a list somewhere? Back to my work: what I'm trying to do is show, in a tabular summary sheet, how often and when the temperature went above a set point or identify the specific duration that a thermocouple was above a set...

    Find location of max value in a Table

    Would I be asking too much if I wanted to find the locations of all, say, 20s in the example given? I have a basic understanding of programming but I'm not the best at implementing them! What I believe is required is a loop that would "remember" the previous value and exclude it in the next...
