I've got a Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server. It had got SQL installed. But then SQL was uninstalled. Now I need to put SQL back in, but I don't see how! There're three CD-Rom but I don't see how and from which CD to install back SQL.

Hi The below routine works just fine on 32 bit Windows 2000, XP and Server 2003. But under WOW32 on a 2003 64 bit system the debug code (compiled with runtime checks) fails claiming that "Run-Time Check Failure #2 - Stack around the variable 'ncbO' was corrupted." Release version without the check seems to work ok but i want to debug. I'm using MSVC 2003 7.1.6030 and don't currently have time to convert the code to 64 bit. Here is the routine which purpose is to simulate use of "NBTSTAT -a computername" to check if a workstation is online. Netbios is after all considerably more reliable than ping. BOOL CheckOnline(char *p_szComputername) { NCB ncbO …

Hi all, I have a heavily used file server and users keep compressing their home drives. This is having an impact on performance and Id like to restrict who can use the compression feature. I know I can disable it across the board as an option but can I actually restrict compression to say the administrators group? Thanks

Keyboard bizarre
by Guest Bill Ridgeway- 0 replies
- 154 views
I have an erratic keyboard. Every so often (?every few weeks) on booting up the Caps Lock light shows that the Caps Lock is on and the computer will accept a password to boot up but after boot up the Caps Lock will go into reverse (the light will come on to indicate that the Caps Lock is off). This is only a slight inconvenience, more of a curiosity. Does anyone know why it may act in this bizarre way? Thanks. Bill Ridgeway

Welcome Screen login problems
by Guest Wilbur3- 0 replies
- 94 views
My user account passwords are irradically cycling through one character at a time on all three user accounts continuously until I finally interrupt it by clicking a few times or if that doesn't work I use key strokes such as the Esc button to stop it. I can then type in my password to log in and everything works normal until I restart, shut down or log off. I have scanned for viruses, spyware etc and nothing has shown up.

Windows Media Player will not open. I keep getting a window telling me to validate my copy of Windows. I do this, and have gone through all the diagnotic tests and each time I get a message saying both Windows and/or Office are Validated. Yet, I can't get a simple program like Media Player to open and run. What's up with this?
