Re: Blue screen Dave Kreskowiak5-Jul-06 5:45 Dave Kreskowiak 5-Jul-06 5:45  That file missing means that your registry is corrupted. You'll need to get the machine started on the Recovery Console or using something like ERD Commander to fix it. You'll have to have the drivers for your RAID controller handy in either case. There is no DOS boot disk that will help you since DOS can't see NTFS partitions, let alone read/write them without special drivers. You're only other option is reinstalling Windows.

You should never install your OS on RAID 0 - if any of the disks goes down you lose the whole volume, doubling (at least - for 3 disks your chances triple, 4 disks quadruple etc) your chances of a catastrophic failure. If you really mean RAID 0, striping, not RAID 1, mirroring, you'll be out of luck. The file is vital to Windows - it contains the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software registry key. If you meant mirroring, RAID 1, if it's software RAID 1, disconnect the primary drive, select the other drive to boot from in the BIOS, and see if it comes up. If it does replace the primary disk. You might have been lucky and it was a software error that corrupted the file, and you won't need a new drive. I'd replace them anyway as a precautionary measure. If this happens with more than one drive look into the general stability of your system. Don't overclock anything. Check that your drive cables are rated for the speed you're running them at and that they're intact. Replace the disk controller. Consider replacing the RAM - RAM errors rapidly become errors on disk as the OS flushes in-memory changes to the disk. Mirroring is no substitute for backups. If software writes an incorrect value to the disk, or if a RAM error corrupts a piece of data before it's written back, the OS or disk controller will happily write the erroneous value to all disks that make up the mirror. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder wpa_supplicant fabiotriolo5-Jul-06 4:21 fabiotriolo 5-Jul-06 4:21  I have a problem with wpa_supplicant configuration.

Novell and windows logon problems WillemM5-Jul-06 0:34 WillemM 5-Jul-06 0:34  Hi, I am working on a new CRM v3.0 installation and I noticed that I can't login on the installation. It has something to do with the novell login. But I can't figure out why. When logging in on novell I also logon to a windows domain for exchange. This part works, since I can open outlook 2003 and it will access exchange right away. But accessing CRM doesn't work, it seems like it doesn't recognize my username and password. This while exchange is accessable. Am I save to say that both apps should work in terms of login, since outlook works allright. There's one special condition on the CRM Server: we are running biztalk with single-signon too on this server. (It's a test environment). Could this cause problems with the logon? WM.

Dave Kreskowiak Microsoft MVP - Visual Basic Re: Disk duplication Mekong River5-Jul-06 6:00 Mekong River 5-Jul-06 6:00  Thank you very much for your comment. I also implement a mini setup for disk duplication but what is an obstacle for me is doing an image of the hard disk. For example, norton ghost could be able to ghost a hard disk and restore an image to the other computer. And now what I need is a step by step guide to ghost/image a hard disk from a source computer to destination computer.

There is no "step-by-step" guide. You have to put your own pieces together depending on your own environment. Ghost, or any other image software, is fully capable of writing a hard drive image to a file somewhere, be it on a set of CD's, a DVD, an external hard drive, or a network drive. What you do depends entirely on your deployment requirements and storage medium. If you want to slam just one or two machines at a time, then creating a boot CD with the image software on it and keeping the drive image file on a set of CD's or DVD's is perfrectly fine. If you have to deploy to hundreds of machines, then a network solution would work better. I myself, use PowerQuest's (now part of Symantec) ImageCenter. It comes with a Server component you can setup on a machine to store and serve up nothing but disk images. You still need to create your own boot floppy or CD to get the target machines up and running so you can image them. You still need to build network support into those floppies/CD's by including DOS-based drivers for your network card(s) or CD drivers to get the read from a CD. But this depends on what image software you're using. You might even have to include support for loading different sets of drivers if you want those boot CD's to work on different network cards and/or reading from CD's...
