We have only got a handful of laptops to upgrade now and any which can’t will be blocked off the network (if there on it in the first place)

One laptop to go!!!!

She just won't bring it in....!!!

 

Just tell her she has 7 days to comply or you will remotely disable it.

 

Failing that just write it off and wash your hands. Make sure it cannot connect in remotely.

Not for student or staff use, but our cashless catering tills and Display screens across the school will probably remain as XP workstations.

Don't give the teacher the option to choose ;D

 

Exactly - disable the computer account in AD... then when they bring it in it has some catastrophic hard disk failure et voila! It's returned with Windows 7...

All classroom network pc's upgraded to win7.

 

Theres a handful of machines built as xp sp3 standalones that dont go anywhere near the network which I'll keep going for depts as long as the hardware keeps running. They are only use for word processing or for some music software and dont cause me any issues past an occasional blown power supply (Dodgy capacitors - and theres a pile of scrap base units in store for parts donors so the fix is zero cost)
