unfortunately I need to have the computer up and running. so I slave the hard drive burned the files onto DVD. and now in the process of rebuilding. this should take 3 hours. better than the 5 hours I spent searching for answers =). I'm sure someone will have the same problem one day, and no...

yes, this is a odd problem. can't find anyone else having the same problem on google!!! I may be the first to many!! Thanks for the suggestion but I think it would be easier to slave the drive to another ntfs OS and back up the data.

I am just about to give up and reformat this computer. Recently updated to Service pack 2, everything was great for a day. Then after a restart the welcome screen with all the user accounts (5 of them) was gone. The welcome screen still loaded but the only option was to shut down button. I...

that's exactly it. the line is ......... On Error Resume Next Rem : if an error occurs where there is no printer connection to REMOVE, the next line of code is execute

Yes, Awj I took all your suggestions into consideration when I created the stack. It only happened that one time for a split second and programs using a network connection errored out. I did not have to reset the stack or turn off the power. It has been smooth since.

tsuji, Yes your code did work. I guess leaving out the first line Dim WshShell, cal1 results in the error. I guess that a bisic declaration line you must write. =) But the confusing thing is the working code from my last posting did not require the first line "Dim WshShell...

tsuji, well here is the working code. I just tested it again to make sure. (notice "cal1" is all lowercase to avoid any confusion) The registry key in regedit.exe reads My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\cal1 working ------------------------------------------------------- Set...

CAL1 = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\cal1\" did not work for me But WshShell.RegDelete cal1 & "\" did! Thanks a bunch!

Phv, what do you mean by in my box? so your suggesting i should try WshShell.RegDelete cal1\ (with the trailing backslash) I am at home now. I will try it at work tomorrow. thanks

yes, i have tried this. I'm pretty sure I'm getting the error because there is a default string inside the key. Windows will not let you delete a key with anything inside of it. Gonna have to find another way to delete the string inside. then delete the key.

I get the error: "unable to remove registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\cal1" This key has nothing in it, just empty. I created cal1 to test the script. code below ----------------------------------------------- Option Explicit Dim WshShell, CAL1 Set WshShell =...

it worked like a charm thanks JPBERGEz

I'm trying to get a script to delete all printers from a certain printer server (cal1) and add the printers I want with the default setting. however on some machines only one eng5si printer might exist. when i run the script it gives me an error that one eng5si connections doesn't exit, this...

For some reason my stack of 4 (3300 series switches) failed or something. All the servers and workstation connected to these switches lost connection and a reboot was required for all. It seem like the switches failed that instance for some reason. It can't be the power because it has UPS...
