    how can I copy C: to another drive and still boot it?

    Is it still possible to copy the contents of a boot partition to another drive and then boot it, kinda like back in msdos copying the c: and the "sys" the drive to make it bootable? Can I copy a win2k c: drive and make it bootable? I tried ghost, but I dunno if the drive is too fragmented, or if...

    How can I get currently logged on active directory dc info?

    I have some active directory oriented code, and I have it working, but it all starts with something like Dim dEntry As New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://DC=domain,DC=com") but how do I get info that goes inside the quotes? I currently have it hard coded for my domain here, but I will need it to pick...

    Why does system.io.directory.exists() sometimes fail over lan?

    I have code that checks to make sure a certain share is on the network before doing some stuff, so I have a block that includes this: Dim dir1 As System.IO.Directory if dir1.Exists("\\server\share") then blahblah() It works in the IDE, and it sometimes works from the compiled and installed...

    OOP trouble with user control

    Ok, I have a form that has 3 strings, 3 buttons, and a user control. The buttons each instiantiate a new instance of the user control. The user control has a text box and an ok button. The idea is that the user types text in the box, clicks Ok, and the user control passes the text back to the...

    how to simulate tabcontrol functionality?

    I'm trying to rewrite an existing program that is somewhat "graphically rich".. pretty buttons, etc. I figured out how to roll my own button rollovers, but now I need to have a column of buttons running down the left so when you click them then the main content portion of the form swaps out all...

    open/save dialog won't open

    I have a page where users download files, and it does one of those deals like most download sites where you don't get a direct link to the file, but a link to a script that sends the file.. It thinks about it for a second and then pops up the file save dialog box. But every now and then users...

    weird problem, command line font corrupted

    So I'm dorkin around at the command line following some instructions on building linux from scratch, and it tells me to create a dumy.c file with just "main(){}", then compile it, and then do a grep on the resulting a.out file to check something out about the linker.. Well, the grep came up...

    is this hash function any good?

    function dohash(val) { var result=1; for(lp=0;lp<20;lp++) { for(i=0;i<val.length;i++) { result=result*val.charCodeAt(i); if(result > 10000000000000) { result=Math.ceil(result/5923); } } } return result; } This isn't really a JS question, more of a crypto question, but I...

    Can someone test for Mac compatibility for me?

    I've convinced my company of the benefit of supporting (or at least trying to support) all platforms, so we're testing firefox and opera on PC, but they won't buy me a Mac, and nobody here has one, so I'm stuck.. Would someone be so kind as to try my site in any Mac browsers that you have...

    How can I make this install a little easier?

    I run a web site that serves up streaming video. Some of the older videos were made with a certain codec that notbody has anymore, called Voxware Metasound.. We have a plug-in for it that works, but the installation is far too tricky for the average user, so we have to walk them through this...

    Is there a way to parameterize this or something?

    I have a really slow query on a web page that I'd like to speed up. Basically, this search page accepts a list of product numbers and has to search a table where that value could be present in any of 8 fields, so the more products in the list, it gets very expensive, because it's using OR on 8...

    *need* to insert binary data into sql server image column

    I know all the pro's and con's, but this is not my database, so I am stuck with it. I have a hard drive full of .TIF files that must be inserted into an sql database in a column of type IMAGE. I have used cffile action=readbinary to read it, use tobase64() to convert it, but what is the syntax...

    short answer on server redundancy?

    I have searched for this, but I found too much information.. I was wondering if someone can give me the short simple truth to this without a bazillion if's and options: I have a single cf server running win2k, cfmx, and mssql.. Now that we're getting more traffic, we want to put in some kind...

    Original DC is down, now group policy doesn't work

    I had a single DC on the lan, so I added a second one, and then eventually the first one's hard drive crashed, so it is completely down, unrecoverable. I thought everything would be fine on the secondary controller, but my group policies don't work. I can add users and manage their passwords via...

    Newbie question: what's the best version to start wtih?

    I have written some 1.0 programs in VB6 and Access, and I am considering doing the 2.0's in Delphi, for the multitude of reasons I have read in here. I went to download the demo, but there are several backlevel versions still available, and what's more, it seems that some older versions are...

    500 Invalid token '' found on line 22 at column 20.

    Well, I messed up really bad guys.. I was doing something funky, and I trashed my server by touching every cfm file on the whole server (c: and e:).. I couldn't get into the administrator for a while, but I copied cfide from another machine, and now I can get into cfadministrator.. but the...

    Is there a way to list currently executing templates?

    I am getting occassional 100% cpu usage, which I suspect is just bad code. Is there a way to track it down? Maybe list currently loaded/executing templates?

    Cookies work on some computers, not others

    I'm a web developer, and I've already posted this in the appropriate programming forum, but I'm trying here as well. I have a simple password-protected download page. When you log in, it sets a cookie, and forwards you to the download page. Very standard stuff. But on some computers (only on...
