Thanks have questioned my CRM developers and they assure me all indexes are fine and maximised. It wasnt the anti virus removed that and we still have the issue so i have installed again. I have high average disk queue length on Performance monitor maximum at 148 could this be an issue?

Just recently we have had considerable slow down as the database has grown. Yes we get the odd lock etc but nothing as drastic as this. We get random freezing with our SQL Server and CRM tool. It is completely random. Working with my CRM tool provider we have looked at profiler it doesnt seem to...

We have a freezing/pausing issue on our current SQL Server Standard Edition database. The database is 14gb in size and has about 80 users logging in. Is this a big database for Microsoft SQL Server to handle? The current server is dual Xeon processor 3.6GHZ, 2GB RAM, Windows 2003 Server Standard...

I have tried to update my gpo files to XP SP2 and found that there the system.adm file in use on the server is actually date stamped later than the one I am trying to copy, so it wont allow me to do it. Any ideas on how I can update the templates without this "newer version" update rule being...

Thank you, I didnt think that would be an issue because its not AD integrated. I will keep the formatting of it in mind. Thanks John

Hi, looking at taking ISA server off a DC and installing on its own small server with a couple of other smaller applications. Can I install it on the second server and put it on the domain at the same time? Then remove the one on the original server? Thanks John

Thanks for all your help guys. Rgrds, John

very true, I will leave well alone. Cheers John

Yes it is working fine and I guess there is no reason to move them. Good point! Does it matter?

Yes, I know thats why I am rectifying the problem. I want to move the FMSO leaving the old one possibly as a second DC. Noticed you are an exchange consultant, want to move my Exchange database to another server whats the easiest way to do that?

Hi all, want to add a second DC to my Windows 2K network, and make the new DC the FMSO? The process as I see it is: 1. Add the new server to the network - Done 2. DCPRomo to get it replicating 3. Once replicated check and confirm. 4. DCPromo older DC to demote it, leaving the New AD as...

I have a 4400 3com switch. It has two 1000 modules connected to two servers. I use Network Supervisor and it asks me to enable Fast Tree Spanning on the two ports. How do I do this? I have tried to speak to 3com and looked through their knowledgebase to no avail. Any help gratefully appreciated...

I think you can run it from vb script script using shell.run this run command line and also I believe you can run this executable from within vb. The syntax is something like from shell: shell.run "\\Application Path\setup.exe /qb+ /i",2,True And similarly msiexec /i "\\Application...

Think its the HOMEPATH. Not sure though. Thanks John
