    Well basically I think it is disgusting the way the BSF is destroying the IT Support community in the Schools.. We are a integral part of the running of the school and not just as network support but for ideas and advice we give the staff.. So I say we should rise up and burn the BSF at the stake
  4. I have a problem with the new RRC 9,.1 Set tthe config to quite or ssilent installation Yet when I connect to the PC's in the classroom a fat great whopping RANGER TASKBAR is on top of the pupils screens.. Then the students do a denial of service by constantly using the chat a thousand times.. Is there anyway of getting this off ?
  5. So what will you be asking for ?
  6. We have over 50 Promethean Activeboards and they are great.... Promethean suuport is great, and the projector repair and bulb replacement is great... Had chairs chucked at them and they are toughh were as the smartboards would have been destroyed

    Sorry mate.. I have been through what you are going through... so good luck It sounds very much like double-speak to me. On one hand they say it won't be fully managed but the school would have to buy from a short list of suppliers (where is FMSIS in this?) but on the other they are saying you would become employees of the company - ie. managed. What they need to answer really is whether changes to the systems would have to be green stamped by them or not. So, rather than you being asked by staff and then going and doing it, would it have to go up to your new managers first? I think the consultant was using double speak so as not to totally freak out the ICT Staff.. or very vauge with the truth...
  8. He means that you can put what you want in the document but if you get it is doubtful..
  9. Just pay them 600 quid and they'll do it for you
  10. I also have this problem... Our database grew to 80GB.. SIMS has a fix and they sent me a patch.. The also have the DB Shrink file that works instantly
  11. OK... I found a type of Manual..... it was on the servers desktop after the Ranger for Networks upgrade...
  12. Hi We have just upgraded to the new RAM and is it strange ?!?! Are there any manuals around ? And is there different levels of user rights ? As I want the Techies only to make accounts and not have modify rights on the templates..
  13. our LFT's came with office 2003, Nero, Power DVD and a one year Norton AV all installed..
  14. There is no customer loyality with Virgin... I was very happy with Telewest.... then it all went wrong and we were handed to Virgin.. What did they do.. put my bill up to £18 per month for a2 mb line.. When I spoke to them saying I had been paying £14 pm they didn't care... when I said that other providors respect their customers and put thier bandwidth up evey year without the cost going up and here they did the opposite .. they told me to go then.. So I did and took up the sky 16mb for £10pm..
  15. you do not need a proper serial.. you can get a trail version of server 2003 for 120 days
  16. It's not just a road... its 2 blocks of 3 floor flats and a couple of houses in the way as well.. :-( All we want to run in the new building is about 5 PC's
  17. OI.. why the block on editing ? anyway wanted to add.. It also seems that you make a template for a user.. so how do you make other users that have different settings ?
  18. Started loading it but it asks for too much... We always used local profiles and not this is forcing us to use roaming profiles..
  19. We have just aquired a building approx 600m from the main site.. the new building is not on the grounds but across the road.. What would the best, easiest and cheapest way of linking the buiding to the School Network.. There is no line of sight..
  20. yea... we have an oldish Ascom Exchange and it cannot be linked to a VOIP.. so we are waiting for it to die before spending 10 to 15 grand on a new VOIP system with Digital Handsets..

    Well as the Consultant said ... you'll or who ever is left working on site will be TUPED to a new company that will control the ICT at the School.. (Managed Services)
  22. Use your head mate.... All the left wing, liberal love ALL mankind except your own muppets have forced councils and centres to stop with the Christianity of Christmas and make it non dominational in-case they offend the Muslims, Jews, Pakistanis or A N Other minorty group... So what we get is the dilution of OUR holiday and get these generic “Nativity” Displays.... which are rubbish I think Birmingham bans Christmas and called it the Winterval or something.. maybe they stopped it as there was a massive backlash .. But yes we have all the leftie love your “other” man and we English must be punished for the sins of our Fathers.. for the state of Christmas and so called Multiculturalism which is destroying our culture..

    IP Conflict

    Well seeing as it's the main file server thats the killer.. What freaks me out now is that I disconnect the server from the entire network and it says there is still a conflict ?!?! How can that be when it's connected to nothing .. LOL..
  24. We have serious issues with Capita Support.. You can never get past the first line drones... They take down your problem and then a cpouple of hours later you get an email solution that most times has nothing really to do with the problem.. Then you phone again and still can't get past the drone and they say they'll get an engineer to call back... but one really never does.. So basically they take so long to resolve a simple issue that if you had just had a 5 min chat with an engineer would have been resolved .. yet what you get is massive time and effort wasteage trying to get to someone to talk to.. but getting poxy emails and they think this is efficiant...
