I changed a fan in my computer and now it will not boot up. I tried Safe mode and Last known good configuration, but nothing works. It appears to be booting then a blue screen appears but it disappears so quickly I cannot read what it says. Is there any way to freeze the screen at that point? Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thank you.

I was reviewing my programs in control panel and I found some programs that I do not think I ever use or need and want to know if I can delete them without interfering with some other programs or operations. Apple Modile Device Support: I do not own or use any Apple products. Apple Software Update: I still do not own or use any Apple products. Quicktime: If I use Windows Media Player do I still need Quicktime? I see a banner on top of the screen 'Click Here to Install Silverlight' What is Silverlight? JJ -- jj

We're using Windows server 2003 Standard version (5.2 SP2); we use the server to store user data & PST files. Everyones current PST file is stored locally on the C drive but all archive PST files are kept on the server with the users connecting to them via a mapped drive 'U'; i.e. user 1 may have: user1: C:\pst\user1.pst user1archive: U\userdata\pst\archive\user1archive1.pst The problem we are experiencing is that occasionally users are unable to open / expand their archive PSTs, when this occurs the whole of the archive folder on the server is 'locked'.

Hi Everyone, One of the sites I look after is running Win2003 server with a 512K ADSL1 connection that is going! ( Don't ask it just is :) ! ) It is being replaced with a 3G Mobile USB Wireless Internet Key Modem.

So I installed it on on of the workstations for the time being ( ADSL is still active until the end of November ) My questions: 1) If I can't install it on the server, can I tell the rest of the network that the internet source is via this USB modem on the works…

Speeding up NTFS access by enabling Content Indexing service?
by Guest MCT Since 1999- 0 replies
- 293 views
If i enable the Indexing service and create a Catalog called "system" and configure for indexing my Win2K3_STD-64 File Server (300.000 files), this will improve performance on regular operations? ("regular operations" is the day-to-day tasks for end users, open folders, subfolders and files). It will be better only in "searches" for files?
