    Our office network runs on Small Business Server 2003 and our user stations are on XP Pro. We have drives R,S,T,U,V,W,X & Y mapped to the same locations on the network for each user. However, when one user logs in, some of his drives map automatically to the same location on the network. For example, he already has T:/project files mapped on his system, but at times it will automatically assign "project files" to drives M,P,Q & Z as well. Also, his login script was created using the same template as others in the office and no one else is having this problem. Any ideas on why this happens and how it can be fixed? Thanks!

    My mouse is double and triple clicking on its own. When I want to click back one page it might click two or three. So I bought a new USB / PS/2 Ativa optcal, much simpler than the previous Logitech Optical with software, and the Ativa is doing the same thing. I have recently blasted my pc and reinstalled all programs (not the Logitech Mouse). The Ativa has no software, it is Plug-N-Play. I have messed with all the mouse options as well as the file options concerning clicking, still it aggressively clicks too many times no matter how light, fast, hard or long I click the button.

    (I suspect the original poster no longer cares 2 years later, but for others who find this site...) I found with XP I had to disable Fast User Switching and the XP Welcome Screen to get things to work properly when I had the same problem. (You do this in the "user accounts" control panel under "change the way users log on" or whatever.) -- roadworrier ------------------------------------------------------------------------ roadworrier's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=31028 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=30610 http://forums.techarena.in

    The following server has Oracle installed on it, but running 32bit OS. The following events are found with the event logs and the server is now encountering very poor performance. Prior Microsoft case last week, indicated the Memory “Free Page Table Entries" were the issue and recommended that the /Userva=3000 switch added to the Boot.ini file. Everything ran fine for a weed, but this issue is now back. I have checked with perfmon and the “Free Page Table Entries" are 16,750. I have also opened a new Web case with Microsoft, but looking for anything that might lead me to a final resolution. I do know that if I reboot the server that everything will be fine,…

    I have a few video files on my computer ending in .avi and some ending in ..mpg. I used to be able to watch them all on Windows Media Center and now when I go to play the .avi files, it tells me that "one or more codecs required to open this content could not be found" and the film will not play, however, the .mpg file will play. If I try to play the films on Quick Play, the sound will play on the .avi films but there will be no picture. I defragmented my computer a few days ago, would that be the problem?? How can I fix this? Liv

    The FTP service on our Win2k3 was functioning normally until the VPN server was installed. With VPN server running if I try to access the FTP site I get the message "this folder is not available". I am able to download files but not upload files. Since this started happening AFTER the VPN server was installed, I figured the VPN server was the problem. So I took the VPN server down and thankfully the FTP service was back. Can anyone confirm this has been a problem? Thanks

    Hi, I've got a brand new install of Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition w/SP2 on a Dell PowerEdge 860 with 2 500GB SATA drives in a RAID1 configuration on a Dell SAS 5iR controller. I installed the OS on a 25GB NTFS partition. No problem. I then tried to create a new 25GB partition out of the unallocated space (basic disk, NTFS, default allocation unit size). LDM hourglassed for a minute, then came back with "The operation did not complete. Check the System Log for more information on the error". No messages were in the log. The volume shows as allocated, but not formatted or assigned its drive letter. If i try to format after the fact, I get a "The form…
