  1. That is true but, at least it wouldn't spontaneously combust like a BMW MINI!
  2. If you want a proper small call then a get a proper mini!
  3. Well as long as the M416 + Silencer hasn't be touched then i don't care what else they change If patch doesn't take long I should be on at some point this evening.
  4. Well I normally get a chance for a few rounds at some point between 6-9pm.
  5. Well I am on the Edugeek TS + playing BF3 for a couple of hours 3-4 evenings a week so jump in TS and have a game or add capncrunch1988 to your friends list.
  6. I jumped on TS a few times in the evening last week, and just like the BF3 server it is always empty. My Soldier - http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/soldier/capncrunch1988/stats/233818305/
  7. I feel your pain! I use Q for sprint and everytime i use it I get the spot commands. Rah!
  8. We are also having the same problem, we have used a different deployment method and are using windows XP unlike Andyrite, but we are having the exact same problem with our volume licensed CS5 package. When students log in it is asking for the serial number.
  9. Battlefield 3 - looks set to be the greatest FPS to date!
  10. If I want a really accurate selection I use the pen tool to outline the object then change it to a selection then cut/delete where nessecary. The pen tool is fiddly to get used to and takes quite a bit of time to cut out an object but it allows a perfect cut out of an object.
  11. This inside a batch file has done the trick. REGEDIT /S \\Server\scripts\logon_screensaver.reg Even though the batch file and reg file are in the same location without entering the full path it just would not work.
  12. I have tried that in the parameters but it still asks me if i want the registry changes to be added.
  13. No I am currently running it on it's own. In the GPO it runs a startup script called logon_screensaver.reg.
  14. But where do i put the commands? in the .reg file i have set to run in GPO, or in the parameters box in the Startup script GPO?
  15. Ok another question, I want to change the screensaver shown at the logon page. I have created a .reg file with the nessecary instructions, I have added that to the startup scripts. However when the computer boots it asks me do i want to add the information to the registry. How can I stop it from asking me if I want to change the registry and make it do it silently with out asking for user intervention?
  16. Thanks for the help folks, I have used your code glendda in a startup script and it succesfully copied the file across to the system32 folder.
  17. I was using this in the login script xcopy \\server\share$\screensaver.scr C:\windows\system32\ The share where the file is kept has everyone read permissions on the share and NTFS (it is where we keep our MSI's so i know the permissions are good) I have tried yours Glennda I call a seperate .bat file from the login script Call screensaver.bat Then in that .bat file i have put If exist C:\windows\system32\screensaver.scr goto end xcopy \\server\share$\screensaver.scr C:\windows\system32\ /c/y end But that has not worked either. The students obviously cannot see the C:\ drive and would have no premissions to system32, is this what is stopping it from copying? Your option sounds interesting chazzy2501 could you offer some more info or point me in the right direction.
  18. I am having issues trying to deploy a screensaver to Student PC's. I have created a .scr file and I know where to setup the screensaver in GPO. However I cannot get the screensaver itself to the machines. I have added a line into the student login scripts to copy the files from \\server\login script folder\screesaver.scr to the C:\windows\system32 folder However It will not copy, I suspect it's a permission problem with either the C:\ or the system32 folder. How can I get the .scr file in to the system32 folder either through GPO or via script?
  19. Plusnet - Plusnet | Home & Business Broadband Internet Access & Phone Services UK I have used them for 5-6 years never had a problem, I also have a couple of friends who use them equally never any issues. Only niggle I had was a high ping on a game server I used to use and I found their customer service excellent and they resolved it quickly.
  20. We are looking at Open Office, currently a couple of IT Teachers are testing it to see if it fits in with the ICT GCSE/BTEC and Functional skills. The only query so far as been the use of Open Office (or Libre Office) database, but it seems they have the nessceary functionality just that it is laid out differently to MS Access or operations are completed in a different order for example input masks and data validation is setup on forms rather than in the table view.
  21. I was wondering if anyone could suggest a good free stock control system, only needs to record basic details quantity/location/barcode etc for an inventory of the products used by the building and cleaning staff. Either webbased or from a central server would be fine. Any help would be much appreciated!
  22. I have asked a similar question and if there was away to turn it off in GPO but it can't be done from there either. We use custom exam accounts, which by default have spell check turned off in the options menu within word. Before the Exams the students are told that spell check is disabled and not many students have the nous to switch it back on and an Invigilator is always present so they would not be able to even if they knew how.
  23. I have had a look at backuppc but it does not look like it backs-up to LTO3 Drive. I am willing to try any ubuntu compatible Backup solution as long as it is free and will backup to LTO3, hence looking at bacula.
  24. To put it simply, i don't have a clue. After spending days reading manuals and forums Bacula still remains a mystery to me, and the tutorials offered by Bacula and Ubuntu are not making things any clearer (if anything making it less clear as they seem to skip bits out or they are far to vague) I am after a real basic step by step on how to create a job, run a job, restore a job. I have got Bconsole up and running on Ubuntu 10.10 Server but I don't know what to type in or the syntax. Or is it all done from the config files?
  25. I personally use OM lenses on my Olympus DSLR and i will continue to use them when I can afford to upgrade to my camera (probably to aCanon). Yes there is no autofocus and no automatic aperture control but they are muuuuuuch cheaper. An example being Tamron Adaptall2 80-200mm f2.8 bought off ebay for £150, the equivallent modern DSLR lens from canon with the same Focal Length and Aperture £1000
