W2K SP4's Task Scheduler won't start because of "System error 1083has occurred." Hello. I am having a problem with an old Dell Optiplex desktop that is using old Windows 2000 SP4 (all critical updates). I noticed event logs say it has problems starting Windows' Task Scheduler service. I can't turn it on manually through GUI and command line. Here is what I saw in cmd.exe: C:\>net start These Windows 2000 services are started: Alerter ASF Agent Automatic Updates COM+ Event System Computer Browser DefWatch DHCP Client Distributed Link Tracking Client DNS Client Event Log Iap Intel® NMS Int…

Hi, I have MS Windows 2000 Windows explorer and it defaults to large icon view. Is it possible to default it at "full" for all folders so that I don't have to do it for each folder? I have a workstation at work, I'm not the administrator.

How can I confirm I can access an NTP server
by Guest Guest- 5 replies
- 368 views
Greetings, I really would like to see a 593 event showing up in the system log, that to me would be positive confirmation. I have bounced the time service, done a w32tm -s (it's a 2000 box), and the /querysntp returns the correct value. My 11 warnings have stopped, but I would feel better if I got some "positive feedback" so I know the new time server is actually working for these servers. On one of my servers, I got a 593 shortly after bouncing the service, and this one has the Update Rollup for SP4 installed, the other two servers don't and they don't get the 593 after bouncing the services. I don't know if this make's a difference. If anyone has …

USB drive stopped writing files

A friend using Windows 2000 has been using a USB flash drive to store documents since her machine is quite old - this is the backup. Suddenly last week when she was trying to copy a file to it, it said that the flash drive was read-only and nothing could be copied to it. I had her do a chkdsk on it and found no errors, but she was still unable to write. She was able to copy all of the files from the drive to her computer, then I had her format the flash drive in Windows Explorer. Now she can't write anything to it. She's not on the Internet so doesn't introduce visruses, trojans etc, to her computer. Is there any other way to get the drive usable aga…

Need hotfix for KB article 843186

All, I'm in need of the english version of the hotfix mentioned in KB article 843186 (winmgmt.exe stops responding when you run a custom WMI decoupled provider program). MS support is not able to provide this hotfix any longer, since W2Ks life cycle is over. The MS support technician suggested to ask here, so that's what I'm doing now... Anyone out there having it stored? Thanks in advance! Regards, André

NAS device - Block level access
by Guest Brad Pears- 1 reply
- 291 views
We are looking at integrating a NAS into our environment. One of the devices we are looking at is an Adaptec Snap Server 210. The saleperson sent me an email that indicated this devices supports block level access NOT file sharing and I should be aware of that... What exactly does this mean to me?? This device will store documents only - no databases will be stored and accessed from this device. There will be no real "locking" requirements. Users will simply be reading and storing documents from the drive. I am not 100% sure if I should be worried about this or not. Thanks, Brad
