F3000 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 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)
burgemaster Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 One laptop to go!!!! She just won't bring it in....!!!
SkreeM1980 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 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.
Sylv3r Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Not for student or staff use, but our cashless catering tills and Display screens across the school will probably remain as XP workstations.
Jamie_Evans Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Think we have one left that I can't seem to convince the teacher to let go of
cooka Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Think we have one left that I can't seem to convince the teacher to let go of Don't give the teacher the option to choose ;D
pantscat Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 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...

Nibiru Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 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)
