  1. If you use ghost then you could ghost in then back out with new partition sizes - again backup before you do
  2. 2003 or 2007 - i was using 2003 as a reference
  3. Kids finish at 2 here -and so do we - off to the pub to either drown my sorrows or celebrate in style - either way a hangover may be in order tomorrow
  4. try, Exchange system Manager > Tools(folder) > Mailbox Recovery Centre 9/10 times they end up in there
  5. Would so like a facebook style 'like' button for this
  6. have you enabeld the TCP/IP configuration to enabled - without this the server wont accept remote connections Usually; start>Programs>MS SQL 2005>Configuration>SQL Server Configuration select SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration> protocols for Right click named pipes select enable do the same for TCP/IP restart the SQL Services see if that helps
  7. BBC Will have ti live on the Web - they do for all the matches that they televise Our place is shutting early to accomodate the spirit of the game so i'll be watching it in HD on a 50in Plasma with a few tinnies - bliss...
  8. also, did you set up SQLExpress with SQL Authentication or windows(mixed) authentication?
  9. Ok slap me if i'm wrong but spaces in usernames??
  10. @dhicks; it was, and as far as i know the personal ones can be used, but as a school is classed as a commercial building even the smaller ones require a license. It does seem that grants and funding are the way to go, we had one company in who wanted nearly £15,000 for the priviledge of setting up a school radio. Lets just say that the idea was soon put on the back burner surely to be forgotten at some later date...
  11. Ah, we dont have that issue as we host our own internally
  12. Sounds Good, i would up the Dells to 1Gb RAM though Low power FM Transmitters wont work - sorry i'll rephrase it will work but you will have to pay OFCOM a ridiculous amount of money (and go through reams of paperwork) just to get licensed - even the low power ones, in enough quantity require a license. The link from @rlweb looks like it will do what you need - and it's cheap
  13. Run the installer again - it should give the option to uninstall what do you mean by misspelling the name? Mark
  14. In terms of PCs the more HD Space the better - and the usual lots of RAM and a chunky CPU. I would go for XP Pro over win7 mainly due to the lower resource usage between the two. For streaming your man may be able to tell more, i know it can be quite intensive on RAM and processor E.G 25/30 simultaneous connections per 1Gb Ram (not including OS) as for bandwidth as long as you dont start streaming High Quality i.e. > 128Kbps (or even 96Kbps) Audio and you're not doing other network intensive jobs such as ghosting I doubt it would be a majore impact unless you're expecting 100's of simultaneous streams Have you considered getting the students to record their segments having the music Tech edit them into a 'show' or multi topic piece and then just making the files available for download from your VLE?? M
  15. I've installed ESX on 9 servers and only seen this once - it was when there was a drive problem (HDD Failure) try without the raid setup... maybe?!? i have also heard somewhere about the VMware HCL - is your server /RAID array listed otherwise there can be issues with installs sorry i cant be of more help
  16. 1 would be for the actual radio playout system (the box that stores your music) the other would be a more beafy box that would provide your hosting (i presume) Most schools have a PRS/PPL License - I would speak to whoever would looks after that (our finance bod does ours) as for music... it is up to you to provide, the license gives you right to publicly broadcast the music only. No music will be proivded. Sams is an all in one solution that provides a playout system and internet hosting more detail is here SpacialAudio Solutions, LLC - SAM Broadcaster - Internet Radio Automation Software Free software for radio is few and far between and somewhat less advanced than the paid for software and services. that is not to say that it would not be of use but I do not know of any... I have little knowledge of Internet radio i have only ever setup hardwired (100v line) and Broadcast (am/fm) but i can imagine one thing that would need to be checked would be the load that streaming audio would place on your network infrastructure. In short a trial may be best carried out with a company that would be will ing to set one up for you - I have dealt with the following Synergy School Radio - School radio manufacture, installation and support and Welcome To Schoolradio.co.uk HTH Mark
  17. Check your SQL config to make sure TCP/IP connections are allowed and also named pipes are enabled. was it a p2v conversion or was it a fresh build - the usual service packs etc i presume have been installed? Mark
  18. Applications is still spelt wrong at the heading of section 3 would love to send this out to staff but i know i will get harassed over the spelling lol Good work either way
  19. Usually makeup remover (sandblasters required for some kids), smelly stuff (cos some kids really need to wash) - the inevitable missing projector remote and the usual pens, pencils. did actually find a toothbrush and toothpaste in a drawer the once....
  20. You need to ensure that all the sophos application files (exes) are added to the application exception list in PCE console. you will also need to make sure that the policy central application files are added to the sophos exception list. we do have issues with IE Crashing but we put it down do it just being IE we have had issues with and without (mainly at the minute extremely slow responses from the server) try running IE without any addons both sophos and PCE have addons in PCE - disable them all then re-add one by one your culprit may be there. If there is anything else i can think of i will let you know. otherwise get in touch with Paul or Simon at forensic they are pretty good with handling any problems that arise HTH
  21. No worries Glad I helped Mark
  22. what was it if you dont mind me asking? M
  23. If it is internal, why not use LDAP and load the settings in automatically?
