Reclaim partition space on SATA disk, WS2003
by Guest Mark- 2 replies
- 448 views
I have a client with three logical partitions on a single SATA disk. The original OS partition (C:) is 10 GB and is getting full. I'm planning to install a new disk and move the data on one of the logical partitions (E:) to the new disk. I'd like to reclaim the space in the emptied partition (E:) and make it part of C. I can't seem to find a software utility (e.g. Partition Magic) that supports such operations on SATA disks in Windows Server 2003. Anyone got a recommendation? TIA. Mark Peters

files locked

I have seen an more cases lately where files on a server share (2003 r2) say they are currently in use when this does not appear to be the case. I have had users complain about this as well. In some cases I am very doubtfull that someone actually does have them opened since no one else should even have right to open. Excel files and word files... maybe even some autocad files. any suggestions?

Find in W2K8 Enterprise changing to wingdings?
by Guest David B- 4 replies
- 557 views
I've been trying out Windows Server Enterprise 2008 and have to keep reinstalling. The desktop slowly sees the fonts change, over a period of a few weeks, from normal to wingdings, making it all unreadable. This has happened multiple times. Avast Server Antivirus does not find anything, nor do I see anything off in Hijack This. I'll attach a screenshot in my reply email, so that it is only by choice that you see the screen shot. This is the 64 bit version, by the way. On the same machine, 32 bit is happy as a clam. This one boggles my mind. David

I get this error only after a weekly reboot. Is there a process not loading up before hand? should I be concerned about this? Is it updating at other times during the week? Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO CN={6AC1786C-016F-11D2-945F-00C04fB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=mydomain,DC=com. The file must be present at the location <\\mydomain.com\sysvol\mydomain.com\Policies\{6AC1786C-016F-11D2-945F-00C04fB984F9}\gpt.ini>. (The network path was not found. ).

connect by name works, but not by IP
by Guest dave64- 2 replies
- 444 views
WE have a SBS 2003 server (server1) which crashed due to a disk controller issue. Once fixed almost everything works fine. A few months ago we added a server 2003 (server2) whch runs an application. The two have worked fine together (until today). After controller problem is fixed, clinets cannot run the app. Message is that the computer cannot be found or no permissions to access it. Indeed if one tries Start -> Run \\192.168.16.3 (that address of server 2) from server 1 one gets the errors messages. However, if you substitute the name (server2) for the address everything works fine. Same story on any client computers as well. I've tried ru…

Can't start the Intel PDS service Error 1053
by Guest Tom Wall- 1 reply
- 450 views
I have a 2000 server that I installed the latest patches on over the weekend 10/26. I am now receiving a message that the Intel PDS service could not start. Here is the error it occurs when Windows tries to start it at boot and if I manual try to start it. "Could not start the Intel PDS service on Local Computer; Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion." The service is set to automatically start. I have looked online for this specific error and only found two postings neither provided solutions.

High CPU Usage After KB958644
by Guest jason.hill- 0 replies
- 356 views
Hi, We installed the critical update KB958644 on a Windows Server 2008 machine 2 days ago and have experienced a massive increase in CPU utilisation, apparently for the System process. Our performance monitor reports typically showed the web server running in the 5-15% CPU utilisation range for the whole day even under fairly heavy load. For the last 2 days, the CPU graph now looks like an earthquake has hit and we have had to reboot the server both days to reset the CPU to normal. Today, the graph was showing 90%+ CPU utilisation and we were not able to RDP to the box and all web sites were non-responsive so had to get the ISP to do a hard reboot. The grap…

can't find server by address, but can by name
by Guest dave64- 2 replies
- 432 views
Hi. We had an SBS 2003 server crash dues to a problem with a RAID controller card. This is the controller for our network. Problem is fixed. Almost everything works well. A while ago a Windows server 2003 was added to run an appllicaton. All has worked well with it and the network. Now, after the outage earlier, we can see server2 in the network neighborhood just like before. However when we try to run the app it fails saying it cannot find the server. When the app was installed they pointed to it by address - 192.168.16.3\somewhere. In trying to see what is and is not working, we tried the old standby Start -> Run \\192.168.16.3 from a couple…

DHCP will not bind
by Guest darkstar_rising- 12 replies

I have a server 2k3 R2 SP2 which is a DC and I cannot get the DHCP service to bind to the IP address. I have followed this post http://www.winserverkb.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/windows-server-sbs/45189/DHCP-not-renewing-leases which pretty much describes what is happening to me. when I go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TCpip\Parameter\Interfa ces\[NIC''s GUID]\BindToDHCPServer - this key 'bind to DHCPServer' does not exist. Although this is a Dell machine I do not have open manage installed on this server. I have stopped short of restarting the server with a clean boot because I was wondering if the fact that the above registry ke…
