Hello, Brand new server with Windows Server 2003 R2. The flash drive device loads fine without any errors and is seen under Device Manager listed under drives; however, the USB drive is not seen listed under My Computer. I've tried three different flash drives and rebooted the server. Can anyone help me out? Thanks.

I have a couple of laptops that have a problem with certain features like roaming profiles and syncronization where they do not seem to know when they are off the network. Sometimes when starting up at home or elsewhere a couple of laptops will give the users an error that it cannot find their roaming profile. Also a lot of the time when they shut down syncronization will not be able to run (of course) and shutdown just sits at the file syncronization screen with the failure message forcing the users to press OK. All computers are XP Pro SP2 and all patches up to a month or two ago. Server that holds the roaming profiles and the files that the user is…

I have a 2008 Server running the Hyper-V role with a bunch of VMs running. I had not planned on joining this virtual server to my domain, but I would like to do so now. Will my VMs be affected if I join this server to my domain? Thanks, Mike

I'm wondering if "security-wise" it would okay to create my TS Gateway server as a virtual server under Hyper-V, along with all of my other VMs? I could give it its own dedicated NIC if that would help matters, as the host server has 6 NICs. Our Checkpoint FW should handle all the filtering necessary... Thanks, Mike

I have a problem which is really annoying. My screen keeps freezing up, I can 'unfreeze' it by opening task manager, closing task manager with 2 clicks of the 'x', this is because the first clcik is still part of the freeze and doesnt close it. after ths my scren is ok for a while then it freezes up again. Its been like this for ages now and I have asked before but never got a good answer. I have tried just about every malware program. ewido, hitman pro and also I have AVG installed but never cured it. any suggestions. est regards

Any way to change the pc ip address without logoff user id ? currently user don't have right to chnage the ip address

Hi all, (I've asked this in the Vista group too, but forgot to cross-post here, sorry) I'm trying to copy a user profile to a different location in Windows Server 2008 and I can't get the junction points to copy (access denied, obviously). I would have thought that the 'copy to' function in the profile list in System Properties would be aware of the need to copy the junction points - but alas it seems that it isn't, basically making the function fairly useless. Does anyone know how to correctly copy a user profile in Server 2008, creating the correct junction points in the destination? Cheers, -- Chris M. Remove pants to email me.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what wrong it is? When I start Win 98, after it shows win 98 logo, then a mark keeps flashing forever.

Hi, I would like to know how I can add permissions for one user, and replicate that permission only down a folder tree... In Exchange Server there is a tool for managing public folders called PFDAVAdmin that replicates a chosen permission thruought a folder tree, I wonder if there is something similar for folder in Windows 2003/2008. Thanks, Paulo Gonçalves

Hi guys, for some strange reason Windows Management and help center seem to pop up at random times for no reason at all. Tried running SR, but it didn't help. When giving the three finger solute, it shows Windows Management with the vowels in management and Help Center with the vowels missing in center. How do I stop this from happening?

We have an SBS 2003 Prm (with 10 Cal's), and i have to install a Terminla Server on an Old Dell Server with Windows 2003 R2, we need Five users to come in on RDC via the SBS 2003 which has two NIC's one for LAN and the other for WAN(static IP Address). to go to the Terminal Server and run application's. can anyone point me in the right direction so that i can configure the SBS 2003 to use the Terminal server (we have bought 5 Terminal Server Cal's) and have installed them on the TS Server. Is it possible that the users come in via the statics ip address and be routed direct to the TS Server?. Many Thanks J

I have a Windows 2003 standard server that runs our internal company program. The program is configured to use the servers email system. There is not exchange on the server just smtp for sending and I'm not sure what is configured for receiving. I have talked with support for the program and they informed me that you just point the mx record to the ip of the server and it will receive email. This doesn't make any sense to me. How does it route to email boxes and such? I thought maybe it was a pop service but I checked add/remove programs and pop is not installed either. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks

Can anyone tell me a command-line command that would actually invoke a legitimate BSOD, without causing any permanent damage? I'll take either variety of: 1) being able to get rid of it with a keystroke, or 2) locking the system up, requiring reboot. TIA

I have obviously done something worng or incompletely, judging by all the reports of how easy TSWA is to set up. Any help is appreciated... I have a TS Gateway which also is to serve as TSWA front-end. I have a TS NLB farm of two nodes running 2008 EE TSwhich have an identical list (1 application now, for simplicity/troubleshooting sake) of RemoteApp Applications. They are set to use the TS GW. The GW is added to the TS Web Access Computers security group on both nodes of the NLB TS Farm. When I go to the TSWA Administration pages and try to set the "Terminal Server Name" in the web part editor zone, I get the following error: "TS Web Access was not ab…

My brother cannot install the above on his HP slimline. All updates are current. Here is the timeline that he provided for me: Service Pack 3 Setup Error (the heading in the box) Access is Denied (after you click on this you get the message below) Service Pack 3 Installation Did Not Complete (after you click on this you get the message below) Select 'Ok" to undo the changes that have been made Then you restart the computer and you are back to SP2 and all seems to work fine. Any ideas from the group or should I just have him Google for help? Thanks, Steve T.

I am trying to do a repair install. When I boot from the CD, I don't get a repair or recovery option, it does "Setup is inspecting" and then goes into a fresh build sequence (loads drivers, asks me to select a partition). The CD is SP2, and I know the install is SP3. I know that means I should do a slipstream. However, previous to that I wanted to see the repair option at least appear... and it doesn't. Thoughts?

I have XP with all service packs. My system crashed and I rebooted but lost all USB ports including PCI card. ALso internet access is gone. I think that I may have picked up a flash file that trashed my system. I ran system restore and that didn't help. ALso current Trend Micro software didn't detect anything. Anybody hear of flash files with this capability? Any way to get rid of them, even if you don't know where to look? Thanks

Hi At work, while away, someone plugged there mobile/PDA device into my PC (not a problem - hotdesking etc). However, every time I log in it comes up with, device not deteched etc etc. Is there away of stopping this, as I can't see a don't ask again box? I guess it must be set to auto start. Equally is there a way of getting any programme to auto start when opened? Anyway any help greatly appreciated Rexmann

If i have a win2k3 server at one site and another win2k3 server at another site and i establish triple des on both and enable L2tp over Ipsec on both servers. And the Server(request security) on one server and the Secure Server(require security) option on the other. Then would the tunnel that would be established between both servers be up on demand(only when traffic is intiated between the two). Or would the tunnel be up permanently(as if i set up an ipsec tunnel between both firewalls at the different sites). Thanks
