I've got a text this morning to tell me there is swgfl issue with access to google services... I don't have it here, thank god...

I ran into this problem. The boot device must contain files like bootmgr.efi and the efi folder that you will see are on the Windows DVD. I noticed some of Microsoft's tools do not add these to boot media correctly but you can simply copy them from the DVD and it should work ok.

Windows deployment services with USB Hub, USB key with capture or discover boot image for Windows deployment services, USB Ethernet. Also USB keyboard and mouse since WinPE doesn't support the touchscreen. Works quite well, about 30-40 mins per tablet since they arn't the fastest in the world.

You should be able to make your own with a pair of scissors, firstly cut off the connectors you don't need then near the exposed end you score around the cable to weaken the plastic and then pull the plastic insulation from the cables (hopefully without the wire). It takes a little practice but no special tools required other than a reasonable amount of patience.

ICT Systems Manager - Poole - £25,727 - £28,127 pro rata

It's the Network Manager equivalent but without line management resonsibility which reduces it by 2-3k from the full blown network manager you would get a secondary. -
Details here Term time + training days only, the pro rata works out approximately 85% of the listed salary. A great job. I'm sure I will miss it when I'm working in my new role. PM if you have any questions.

There is a group policy setting: Admin Templates > Windows Components > File Explorer (Windows Explorer in Win 7 I think) > No Entire Network in Network Locations Enable that one.

Control Panel > Region (this might be named slightly differently in Win7) > Administrative Tab Copy Settings, Tick Welcome Screen This should set the correct input language for login. -
Adding User Name To Print Jobs
BHMS replied to Richie1972's topic in Network and Classroom Management
Doh I managed it before I had papercut doing it. I guess the syntax is slightly different than I remember. Try opening your IE and going to print > page setup. Change one of the items to custom then %username%. Try printing, then if that works you can copy the reg key from your computer with the correct syntax. -
Adding User Name To Print Jobs
BHMS replied to Richie1972's topic in Network and Classroom Management
You can add usernames to IE printing quite easily using a registry key to edit the page footer. Just add %username% to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup\footer. -
Defrag to move the unmovable? Best scheduled app?
BHMS replied to dany2010's topic in Windows Server 2008 R2
The unmovable files include the pagefile and the hibernation file. Disabling both of these will allow you to shrink it further. Just re-enable them after. -
My papercut 11.8 doesn't inspect the drivers. I turn watermarking on and the printer either starts churning out error pages or it works, depending on the driver.

RM were 3 months late sending a modem and router for our new DSL connection with the SWGFL. I had to chase them up by e-mail twice. On the plus side I'm happy it's now installed. A good service when it finally arrived.

Try the Broadcom 5.93.97.83 wifi driver. The others I tried had quite a few issues, e.g. looking connected but actually not, including the newer ones.
