folder redirection and doubing up of folders in user folder
by Guest anthonyx26- 1 reply
- 394 views
Server: TS Windows Server 2008 I set GPOs for folder redirection but when the user logs in and opens up his user folder, it shows all the folders in double. E.g., there are two "documents" folders. One has the regular folder look (it points to c:\users\%username%\documents) and the other has the green windows standard folder...and it points to the redirected folder location on the network (ie \\server\redirects\%username%\documents). I've added a "rmdir" to the login script to automatically delete the local C: drive fodlers, but it seems odd that I should have to do this. Is there a more official way to make this happen without resorting to my "dele…

I am trying to remove a programme by highlighting it and hitting "Remove" in the Add or Remove Programmes page of Settings. It fails, saying it can't find the program. I know that most of the programme's details have long since gone. Sometimes when this happens, the option to remove the listing is offered, but not always. When it's not, is there any way to remove it manually? donwb

RDP Sound skipping
by Guest Gretchen Hembree- 3 replies
- 444 views
I have successfully set up sound through my RDP session. My problem now is that the sound is skipping. I have tried a few tests with sound through IE or sound actually stored on the server HD. Both skip. When you log into the RDP (and have Windows default sound activated) the start up sound does not appear to skip. I am wondering if this is a setting that can be worked on or if it is based on the physical internet connection. I am trying this from a remote site. I haven't gone to the physical location of the server to test an RDP connection from that office. IE has always been a bit slower through RDP than on your local desktop. Is there…

I have a Proliant DL380 G4 with 4 72.8 GB drives in it. I added 2 more drives and expanded the array. In the HP array configuration, I have 164705 MB of unused space but don't see this in disk management. When trying to use diskpart in normal mode, I get error message the specified disk have less than 1 MB of free space available. The volume I chose has 34 GB of free space while the other volume (not chosen) has 11 GB free. How can I get diskpart to work?

Computer Booting Speeding 1 2
by Guest Shrikant- 28 replies
- 946 views
How to speed up computer start up ? I have removed all desktop icons. The booting is slow because of actions taking place in the 'tray' icons on right hand bottom corner. One of the icons is for 'HP Product Update'. Other Icon says "Keep your computer uptodate", then another Icon says "safely romove hardware". They get loaded one by one with the pop up messages as each one gets loaded. Can it be eliminated thereby speeding up the computer start up ? Is there any way to speed up the computer ? What is the 'normal time' to boot up the computer ? Even after my computer gets booted, I see some action on my hard disk. -- Shrikant

I thought I was wise to get XP on my new Dell PC, since I needed little problems with program compatability from the software apps I was running on my prior SP2 XP machine. But since the new Dell XP came with SP3 it appears I am screwed . . . SP3 doesn't (appear) to work with 16 bit apps . . . I've spent 8 hours testing and reviewing all the latest MS kb articles on this topic to no avail. E.g., I use a Cpen 800C handheld scanner in my work that will not work with SP3, and they don't make these devices anymore, the current versions don't work unless hooked up to a computer, the old version has an LCD display and allows you to work in the field and then come back …
