OEM Licensing question.
by Guest Carlo Piva- 0 replies
- 49 views
Hi there everyone. Just have an issue right now with an MS audit that is being done on our company. They are claiming that we are illegally using OEM licenses on our laptops and desktops. The only licenses we use for our laptops and desktops are what comes pre-installed on the hardware from HP, or what comes with their recovery CD's. Literally, they are saying we are re-using the same keys over and over again. Again - we are not installing any OS ourselves we are only using what HP has deployed on the units. I have managed to pull up a report through ManageEngine Desktop Central that indicates which keys are being used on what systems, and it appears that HP has been…

Hello, I have a HP Laptop whose hard disk crashed (on which i ran Windows 7 x64 Professional) and had to replace it. So had to install a trial version of Windows 7 and enter my product key. I have also installed linux in windows with the help of "wubi". My problem is that windows is not getting updated (not able to upgrade to SP1). I have tried skipping SP1 and installing but failed. My computer has not been able to update for a month now. And every time I try shutting down the computer, it installs updates (which always fail and takes my time ). I have tried the following methods to solve my problem in the past few days: 1. Restart my computer. (clean boot) 2. Tro…

I've only successfully completed this once using this article to configure an Exch2003 mlbx & a Exch2010 mlbx under one Outlook 2010 profile: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee815819.aspx Following the article, it looks like this can ONLY be done during setup using the OCT tool. Is that accurate or can it still be added later from Control Panel - Mail like other regular profiles? Thank you... Continue reading...

by Guest FrankPolise- 0 replies

I reported another hacking incident to Yahoo a few days ago (because I uncovered their email address as being Yahoo). Have no idea if it is the same individual. They somehow were diverting my emails to themselves; both hotmail and gmail. Average 30-40 emails a day with both accounts and all of a sudden none. I am getting paranoid about using the Internet. What do I need to do? I only know about the request for money referred in the "Title caption" because my friend called me Saturday on my cell phone and asked what I was doing in Cyprus.

The latest Windows Defender (WD) scan that I ran the evening of March 25, 2012 reported that PWS:win32/ldpinch.bl was malware. WD removed it from my disk.

I cannot install windows 7 x64 with AMD/ASUS RAID driver
by Guest fatman45- 0 replies
- 49 views
Trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on an ASUS M5A97 mobo with AMD SB850 RAID, two WD 750GB drives configured as RAID 0. No drives are recognized by W7 install, so I choose Load Drivers. I put the drivers on a USB stick. Install finds the drivers there, starts loading them, then comes back with "Installing an unsigned 64 bit driver is not supported and may result in an unstable Windows installation." I downloaded the latest drivers from ASUS website which are WHQL certified (as are the one's on the motherboard disk). I saw other posts that recommend clicking Repair instead of Install, but I don't see where that option is. All I am given as options are Upgrade or Inst…

Hi All, I am Arun, currently working as SysAdmin. In our network there are both desktops and laptops. But I am facing issue with the laptops users. The issue is as follows, most of the user call me and say that they have forgot their AD password and help them to reset it. I will reset it through AD, but the problem is all desktop users connected to the LAN are able to log in, but the laptop users using wifi cannot log in with their new password. They are logging in using the old password to the system, but they are accessing their outlook mail using new password. Once they are connected to the LAN the new password is reflected to their system also. Is there any way to…

- 51 views
I want to use IE9 but.... the first problem is that I am getting a constant error msg for a current update. All the threads are saying that I need to uninstall IE9 and reinstall it. I have found the IE9 program under the updates section and have faithfully pressed the Uninstall button but constantly get an error message that leaves the program in tact. I have found the threads that give this long command to run on the command prompt but still no joy. At the end of the day, I wish Microsoft would just pull this update and send us a new one that works Continue reading...
