All USB controllers offline
by Guest SLoweCSL- 0 replies
- 313 views
I am in a unique situation with this system. It is a new Dell with no PS/2 ports and is all USB. After installing the latest Intel chipset drivers, on next boot no USB device would work. I see over the network looking at its device manager in read-only mode that all USB Host Controllers have yellow bangs saying that the drivers are missing or corrupted. The kicker is that if you can't use a keyboard or mouse to access the system, how do you redo the driver installation. (They don't work in Safe Mode either). Thanks -- An Engineer asks "How does it work" A Scientists asks "Why does it work?" A liberal arts major asks "Do you want fries with that?"

Mighty Gurus, I have two win2003 servers. One hosts a web browser that gets PDF files from a reporting server. Previously the reporting server was W2k and the service which created the PDF ran under a user/pass that was identical to one on the W2k3 web server. After upgrading the reporting server to W2k3, I find that this 'trick' no longer works. (You use the same trick in connecting an SQL server to a web server on different machines, if they are both W2k or less.) This is either a security enhancement or a configuration setting. Anyone know of a work-around? Thanks Harry

Windows Server 2003 is experiencing slugish performance and at times bringing it to a halt. After a reboot the server appears to run fine.

Flashjester jugglor engine
by Guest Cloud Dancer- 0 replies
- 81 views
When I installed a Creative Webcam, Zonealarm gave me a message that Flashjester jugglor engine was trying to monitor activity on my computer. I denied it but the webcam would not install. I then allowed it and since my computer has been sending out up to ten times the data received from the Internet. If I go to Flashjester.com there are no instructions to uninstall this program. It's not in the add/remove list. I can kill it in Zonealarm program control but that has not changed anything. I have scanned for a virus and spyware but have not found anything. I think I have been hacked. I may have to zero-fill format my hardrive and start over. Does anybody have a c…

This patch is being offered to Windows 2000 Professional SP4 through Windows Update even though the O/S is listed under Non-Affected Software. However the two affected files, ntdsa.dll and sp3res.dll, are present in the system directories. Should the KB document be ignored and the patch applied?

Installation Qualification for Win2K3?
by Guest Rowan Prior- 0 replies
- 199 views
Good day, I know that every environment is different but I am hoping someone here can provide some information. I have a need to move one of my Windows 2003 servers into an FDA regulated environment, and I need to create an Installation Qualification (I Q) for the hardware, operating system (Windows 2003 Std R2) and Citrix. Does anyone have documents that can assist me with this? Does Microsoft have anything that is in the public domain and can be used as a guideline? Thanks
