  1. I could not get it to work on my PC. Kept getting errors that it could not find a INF file. Pissed me off so I starting using a different scanner that I had instead. ;(


  2. I would just rename the administrator to something that will not be easily guessed and then create a Administrator account with very little rights or permessions as possible.

    You can't delete or disable built in accounts on NT through the users console, so I'm still at a bit of a loss.

     

     

     

    You are correct sir. Administrator and Guest cannot be deleted because they are built in accounts.


  3. Check for the Blaster worm. I had to patch about 1500 PCs at work and it causes all kinds of havok on systems. Also make sure you have the most recent dat files. Just because you installed all the patches does not mean that you cannot catch it. The patch only closes the exploit not protect you from the worm.


  4. I agree with Sapiens74. I would go with the Intel processor and hyper-threading. Hyper-threading will help lessen the amount of time to compile and if he will burn it to a DVD, the rendering time. If I remember correctly on benchmark test the AMD processor usually does better for graphics but do not have anything like Intels hyperthreading to help process information. SCSI would help a great deal also.

     

    Adobe products are beasts themselves and if you have the best processor out there, will make any task that much easier. If it work that is purchasing it why not buy the best rig that you can. Time is money.

     

    AMD had chipsets that will handle dual processors but are not exactly the greatest on performance. Intel chipsets are usually supported by any M$ product with out adding extra drivers and are usually very stable but the boards are usually a littel more expensive.


  5. go into local security policies and in the security settings group give that user the ability to log in locally and that should be it. One other thing is that if you set the TS to be only accessed for administration, only 2 users can connect and both must be admins. If you set the TS for general use you must set up a license server within 90 days of setting up TS. The License server will connect to Micro$oft to check for licenses.

    Here's a new and exciting problem with my onboard NIC.

    I have the P4P800 board by Asus flashed to the 1008 revision bios, Windows XP SP1 and all drivers updated.

    Even AFTER formatting and reinstalling Windows XP, I still get:

    "404 Error: Page not Found" when trying to view certain pages on the internet, however, when I switch to my secondary NIC (PCI Slot), it works 100% fine.

    What exactly is going on? Is it a setting I may have wrong somewhere? I have even tried selecting "Automatically detect settings" in the LAN settings in IE, and I have also tried other browsers such as Netscape and Opera, both give me the same error.

    Any help would be great.


    I have had several issues with Windows XP and network cards that all of a sudden start failing. The problem is probably with Windows XP. I noticed on several of my PCs that sometimes when you change things it corrupts the tcp/ip protocal stacks so bad that the only thing you can do is re-install the whole OS. All the OSs previous to Windows XP syou could uninstall TCP/IP and then reinstall it. With Windows XP they intigrated TCP/IP inside of the OS that you sometimes cannot make any changes or it blows up the protocol.

    Give you a example: On my laptop I installed cisco vpn client on it for use on the standard NIC connected to my computer. When I installed the wireless card it would not get a IP or communicate with my network. After doing a system restore the network worked again but only if used the standard nic any attempt to use the wireless nic blew it up.

  7. I agree. Hulk would win. He could just crush the Terminator into a billion pieces. The second Terminator would be a bit more challenging but I think he could think of something such as throwing him into deep space or something like that.


  8. Yes it can be done. If you look on the internet you can find some links to files that will add the USB support to NT. I have one that we had used at work but now if a machine needs USB and and has high enough specs we just upgrade it to W2k. Be aware that you will probably only be able to find support for USB 1 only.


  9. Try this:

     

    The problem is with using Windows Explorer to modify security settings globally on a partition, directories, and files. This is in fact a less than optimum method of applying security settings. A more appropriate method is to execute the following command line from the root of the partition:

     

    (Note: If you are not at the root of the partition in question you must set your default there: CD /D drive_name: )

     

    Now the command line:

    CACLS * /e /t /c /g Administrators:F System:F

     

    (Note: If you see the message, ''Unable to perform a security operation on an object which has no associated security,'' you are executing this from a FAT partition. You must set the default to an NTFS partition.)

     

    This command will edit (/e) the ACLs, rather than replace them, and recursively apply them (/t) to subdirectories. CACLS will continue (/c) even when it hits an open file. Any number of ACCOUNT:PERM parameters may follow the grant (/g) switch. There is additional flexibility built into the CACLS command-its only limitation is the dearth of selections for PERM (permission levels) values.


  10. I ran Proxy with W2k for the longest time and had no problems. There should be no problems with compatability. My work uses Proxy and a large amount of the computers are W2k Pro and no one has any issues.

     

     

    The only compatability issues I am aware of with Proxy is that you need a special exe to install Proxy on a W2k Server. I did notice that W2k Server will run MS Proxy, but it doesnt like to run it. I did not have any stability issues when I ran it.
