Because both of your computer (winxp, win2003) have a difference user name or password. So windows need to recognize which user that you attemp to connect as.

If you managed to install 2 OS's you shouldn't have problems finding drivers for you hardware. By the way you never mentioned the type of audio and graphics card so how could we help?!

I found your driver from Intel website[^], but there is no driver for windows 2003. But the driver for windows xp is available. If you have a test machine, may be you can try an xp driver for your 2003 OS? Hope this help

This problem usually occures when malware installs itself as a handler for everything. Reboot your system from a known-clean boot-CD and use an up-to-date virus-scanner with up-to-date signatures to scan for malware. I suggest something like "Knoppicillin".
Cheers,
Sebastian

hi all! this is my first post here, so please bare with me.
do you know what could possibly cause a windows service not to start automatically at windows startup?
here are my settings:
1. Startup type: "Automatic"
2. Log on as: "Local System account"
3. When I install it under the "C:\Program Files folder", it works just fine. It starts automatically. But when I install it in a different folder (for example, under "C:\") it does not start automatically.
4. OS: Windows XP Professional 2002 Service Pack 2
5. User Account type: Administrator
i hope you can help a newbie like me.
thanks in advance!

the OS is japanese, but from what i can understand from the event log, access is denied or some permission error. i was wondering why, because i log in using the Administrator account.

The nature of a service means that it runs independently, under a default, or configured, user account, not the user account you log on as. It is normally a lesser privileged account.

Contrary to popular belief, the Local System account is very restricted. It doesn't have permissions to a lot of the system, including the root of the SystemDrive and about half of the registry.
Also, it doesn't matter what account YOU use to login to Windows, since Services run completely independant of a user being logged in at all.

I think you are wrong here, the LocalSystem account is the highest privileged level that a service can get.
For more info read LocalSystem account[^] and how the system account is used[^].
Just a quick quote:
"By default, the system account is granted full control to all files on an NTFS volume. Here the system account has the same functional privileges as the administrator account."

You'd think that's the case, but there have been too many questions about "Access Denied" errors when using it to get at various parts of the file system, registry, and of course, network access.
In practice, unless you REALLY need Desktop Interaction, it's best to create an account explicitly for the service to use so you have greater control over what it can and cannot get to. Truthfuly, how many services REALLY need admin access to the machine?

Hi all,
Recently i have read some forum said that if rename USBSTOR.pnf and USBSTOR.inf will disable usb storage even the usb drive never install in the computer or plug in when rebooting system.Is that true? Currently i only know the way is deny system group of USBSTOR key(in registry editor). Then, if rename the USBSTOR.pnf and USBSTOR.inf can archeive the purpose of disabling usb storage, may i know which is the best way to totally disabling usb storage(Deny system or rename .inf/.pnf file)?
any tips and suggestion are welcome.
thanks in advance

Hi Noctris,
Thanks for your reply.
Actually i am already set the registry key to disable usb drives. But if you just simply set the registry key, it only will work for those thumb drive which already install in you deskop, but not for those thumb drive which not install yet in your desktop when they are plug in the device before boot into OS. So, in my own solution, i am using registry key and .inf to disable the usb drive.
So, any suggestion?
regards

This command already works at the command prompt (just fix the spelling mistake)

Hi, one of my colleage control the server with more than one hard disk. Last week, my office has a problem with fire and he rush to shutdown the server and take out the hard drive with him. When he return back, he forget the slot of which hard disk is resided. He just know that his disk is configured as dynamic disk but he forget about the type of volume (spanned or strip...).
From here I have a question, if we plug the hard disk in wrong slot, will it affect the data inside the hard drive? Thank in advance

So much for backup to tape and documentation, huh?
This is what a disaster recovery plan is for. I highly suggest you write one after you get this back up and running.
No, it won't affect the data. You just won't be able to get at it unless the drive is in the correct slot and the configuration of the array is correct. If you don't have anny idea what it was, you're going to go through a lot of trial and error to figure it out. You may even never figure it out! Also, you may even make a mistake and destroy the data on the drive if you inadventantly make the wrong configuration permanent.

Regarding to Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Domain Services, I want to ask, when compared with other DNS, how the security level improves, besides for better administration (the number of administrator can be reduced)???

Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Domain Services includes a new feature called Read-only Domain Controller (RDC). It enables better administrative management and enhanced security.
For example, on better administrative and security level, it requires no password in the default platform which can lower the risk of passwords being tracked by others in RDC forum.
You can watch the video (Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) in Windows Server 2008 Technical Overview)http://www.microsoft.com/hk/webcast/default.aspx?sid=311
for a more detailed explanation.
