The XP Drive was a dynamic drive. Vista Home Premium 64bit does not support dynamic drives. Using XP and changing it to Basic drive will lose all the data. I backed up the drive, re-partitioned and formatted the drive in XP, dumped the data back hooked it up to the Vista machine, we're off and...

thanks again simon I know what your talking about....advanced - security properties....I know this in XP, gotta find it in Vista...........I hate new operating systems

Thanks Simon, Makes a lot of sense, so there is some importing utility within Vista to make this happen??

An ASUS mobo machine running XP an NTFS 350g Seagate IDE drive shows 29 gig free and all the data in perfect shape, yet when dropped into a New Gateway with SATA native and one open IDE slot running Vista the Data is gone and showing 297g free. I bring the hard drive back to the ASUS all the...

I have a one laptop that can not reach the corporate intranet homepage. I can ping it by name. I can hit other pages hosted by the same server, but can not get to the home page. Any ideas?

RPC over HTTPS thanks

The log in form for remote connection to the Exchange server has a default entry, in this case username\domain. Of course, it should be domain\username. Where is this being stored? Thanks

I agree, ya really can't beat some deals out there....but you know what your getting. Barebones may be the way to go...you can cannibalize the old machine It's not my computer so not my decision. But he has a couple options. Thanks

Power supply was not the answer. I still think power is the issue, but the problem is on the mobo. I'm gonna take a stab at swapping out the system memory. thanks

Yes, I've done that myself. But a little late...it was rather easy to rip out and I have do a local search for a replacement.... Thanks kestrel1... it's always great to have someone o bounce ideas off of.... I probably would have not looked at the pws....

One other issue is that bios was telling me the battery was dead. I replaced it but the original issue on this thread still exists. Like i said in the previous post, I am now leaning towards the power supply and see what I can do to getting another. Anyone know if the Dell 4550 can take a...

Thanks for that suggestion, I'll try. I noticed that the DirectX 9 tests caused the video to lock up on bouncing box full screen. I uninstalled Directx 9, now back to 8.1...I'll see if that does anything. Actually the power makes sense becuase only high-end cards cause a problem. Have to see...

Syptoms of problems was video going black. Seemed computer and monitor was running fine, but required reboot. I had a couple XP blue screen boot up crashes indicating hardware problems. Originally had an AGP nVida GeForce, video is not on the mobo with a BIOS of V02. I updated the BIOS from the...

I have a two server net;(1) NT4.5 Primary controler with SQL and Exchange, (2) NT4.5 Secondary with SNA connecting to a remote mainframe. I want to introduce (3) W2K as the primary, get at least SQL and maybe Exchange on to the W2K. Move or recreate SNA on the original primary NT4.5(1) as the...

IBM MultiProtocal. Ths driver comes with SNA 4. I got it to work, but very inconsistant. Typical ISA problems, only certain IRQ and memory settings are allowed. It's was a test machine on a frame circuit. I had it up for days, then moved it to another location and got it to work. Thanks for...
