Help with new 64bit HP Pc

[Dean]

Hi all

 

We have purchased a few g64bit Window 7 HP PC's and they work fine until we add them to the domain.

Once added to the domain 32 bit IE stops working, but 64bit IE is ok. We also use Centrastage here which will no longer connect to the internet on these machines once they are added to the domain.

 

As I say 64bit IE continues to work but all other 32bit apps seem to stop working!!

 

We have tried a clean 32bit windows 7 install but we still get the same issue.

All other PCs work fine it is just these Hp 8200EM/i52400 product code XY150ET#ABU

 

I have probably missed something really simple but I am now scratching my head!!!!

Did you use the pre installed HP OS?

If you did then try a compleate clean install of Windows 7 and then manualy install the drivers + add to domain.

Hi

 

We have done a complete clean install of windows 7 and even tried both a 32bit and 64 bit OS install downloading drivers from the net.

But still once its added to the domain it doesnt work, so it nust be something on the domain permissions!!

 

Really doesnt make sence!!

Have you tried putting the Computers account in the builtin computer accounts in AD so it gets minimal policies.

Hi

 

Short answer is yes.

Can you clarify a little about "stops working"?

Does it not get proxy settings or just not connect?

Can you see the clients ip trying to route to your proxy?

Hi

 

Sorry Clarify not working - The internet is working as I can get internet access via 64bit IE and I can ping any external address and get a reply.

However the 32bit IE no longer returns internet pages and just returns the internet explorer can’t display the page error..

 

Also we use Centrastage and that can no longer connect to the Internet. I am going to look at the Centrastage logs again and see if that shows any possible problems.

 

I thought it was a GP problem that is happening on any 64bit processor based pc with Windows 7 64bit installed, but we did a 32bit install on the same 64bit machine and it still on a happened.

 

Thanks
