Has anyone else had any issues with the Broadcom 440x dos client32 drivers. I have found it only work intermittently (hope i spelt that correctly). sometimes it works and sometimes not, I have not been able to track down why as yet. I have not been able to find any information on the net...

Umm, no bloody good mate, he had disabled the restore points items. worked out how to reinstall the server service though. pretty simple after the fact.... For those who wish to know how: Open "My Network Places" Open "Network Setup Wizard" Next Next Select...

Coyoteooc, Thanks for that, forgot all about that little option, too used to NT4. I'll give that a go this evening let you know how i go.

A friend has an XP PC and likes to play around, as we all do, and somehow he has managed to delete/remove the server service, so his shares no longer work, no surprise there. How can I help him reinstall the server service without having to rebuild his PC? Is it possible to do this? the...

Not sure if this will work but you can also try this key as well or instead off. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SourcePath=C:\I386 Clint

The easiest way would be to change the Welcome Dialog box to have the warnings and what not that you want the user to read. I will assume you are using Wise for Windows Installer 3.x. Goto Setup Editor and click on Welcome Dialog, In the right hand pane simply double click any existing text to...

Thanks John, pretty much cleared that all up. Obviously we were all a little too early in the guestimates, rusty memory banks will be blamed as the cause. Some other unimportant but interesting info there. Thanks for the link I have distributed it around and I am sure other discussions will...

Quick question, 'cause I couldn't be stuffed trying to search the M$ site for the info, what was the release date for NT 4.0? And for those who have been around longer don't suppose you know when Windows 3.1 was released. This all comes from a discussion we are having here about the release...

Yep, that worked, what a dud. Works like a charm once you select the correct options. Thanks for you help.

Haven't been back to it since I posted for first messge more urgent work keeps coming up, anyway I'll give that a go, couldn't see the for looking.... Thanks

Not sure how much you know about Wise so I will keep it simple. Sorry if there is too much detail. Got to Setup Editor Click on the Actions tab Hightlight the folder where you want the batch file to run. ie "Execute Sequence" or "UI Sequence" under whichever branch...

Same as davmar92, I wrote a script to get header information out of our own home made software distribution system packages, but I kept getting strange results and the odd error. What I finally did was open one of the smaller packages in UltraEdit, located the non alpha-numeric characters and...

I a pretty sure it is something to do with the Super User service and the SU.Exe that is also in the resource kit. Super User Service Service? One of the switches that is used is suss -install but what it does I don't know. HTH

tsuji, Works great as a stand alone vbs script but when I place it within a html file I kept getting the error: Error: Variable is undefined: 'Wscript" Code: 0 If I removed Option Explicit altogether I received: Error: Object required: 'Wscript' I even tried Dim-ing Wscript but still...

Michael, You could create a vbscript file with the following contents and call it from a batch file. Dim WshShell Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.RegDelete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\TheSoftwareKeyIWishToDelete" For Example: WshShell.RegDelete...
