When you mirror two disks you do not have both disks active. If the active disk of the mirrored pair fails, you need to make the disk active. Load a boot disk (CD or Floppy) with fdisk, follow the prompts to make the disk active. Reboot and it should find the disk and boot.

Hey,
Thank you for your help.
What disk should i use) I tried win98 stratup disk, and then fdisk, but there is no option for active hdd. Should i use the option with active partition? Works that for disks as well?
If not, then what disk should I use? The Installation CD, as far as I know, doesn't have such on option like fdisk.
Thanks a lot!

Hi, trying to enable remote desktop on a machine at home, it has Norton Firewall installed. What's the process name of "remote desktop" (server..?) so I can exclude the process in firewall setting?
Thanks

The Terminal Services service runs in a SvcHost.exe process, which it shares with the DCOM Server Process Launcher service, at least on my XP SP2 system here.
You might be better off opening the specific port: TCP 3389.

I'm sorry that I never use vista too  . Now i just download 1800 MB of 3200 MB from Microsoft website. But in my opinion, I think its windows registry is the same as before. Try to check an information from this article[^].

hi !
Thats fine no problem. i think your right, as windows is know for the standardizations, they would have not changed the registry, i hope so. i did try to get info about this from the net, but was not successsfull. i think i shall download this OS and find out the fact. Thanks for that suggestion.
Kind Regards
Sandy

Ok, let see the below information and you might know about the time that you could download based on your own connection speed:
1. Download 6 hour every night (around 300MB of size is download).
2. Connection: broad band and the maximum speed is 15kbps.
3. The file size is 3200 MB
4. Currently i download 2200 MB which take me completely one week.
5. The remain 1000 MB might cost me around 4 days to complete it.

I'm sorry that i could not answer you for this question. Because i didn't get the full download yet. But according to Microsoft, this version is a beta 2.

Does anyone have experience using either VMWare, MS Virtual PC, or a similar product?
I need to set up a build/test environment for my personal use in building small desktop and mobile apps.
I plan to build a new server with Windows Server 2003, then create additional virtual servers on it for DB Server, Application Server, and Web Server. I'm guessing that I'll need roughly a 3GHz processor, 2GB RAM, and 200+ GB of hard drive. Does that sound adequate?
Which of the available Virtual products do you recommend and why?
Thanks,
Bob

Consider more RAM. Rember the part about "Virtual" memory is where these servers live, give them enough to run.

When FindFirstPrinterChangeNotification returns a value that includes PRINTER_CHANGE_PRINTER_DRIVER (e.g. when a printer driver is added/removed or modified on the server) is there any way of getting additional information on that event such as which driver on the server this occured for?
The "PRINTER_NOTIFY_OPTIONS_TYPE" doesn't seem to have any fields for anything except printer and print job notifications...or have I missed something?

Go to Start -> Run and type gpedit.msc and navigate to User Configuration -> Administrative Templat -> Windows components -> Windows explorer and try to check the key "Hide these specific drive in my computer" and "Prevent access to drives in my computer".

THen what's the software you lost? Without it, there is no interface between Windows and the "filesystem" of your logical drive, and heance, no way to get at that data. WIthout the software that created the logical volume, you're SOL.

You're not getting it. This software created a "virtual" filesystem that only it knows how to access. Without it, you're screwed. It's like storing a bunch of stuff in NTFS under Windows, then removing the NTFS portion of Windows. No NTFS means no access to that data. In your case, no software to interpret this virtual filesystem, means no access to that data.

oh ok this is really very enlighting kind of stuff. you mean to say the software will make my drive's file system inactive. hence i will not be able to view it. Is it done with the help of registry or disk management?
Kind Regards

Where did you get this software? Try to get it and install it again. I think this is the best solution.
