Did a job like this the other week for my mrs's mum the other day, fix the leak (might just be able to nip it up to stop the leak) then bleed each of the rads starting from upstairs. The small leaks cause air to get into the system and can cause an air lock so the rads dont even heat at the bottom on some rads. IF all your rads are stone cold then check the flow and return pipes going to and from the boiler, if possible down to the pump (just cos its making a noise dosnt mean its working). There more like circulators than pumps if you know what i mean. Also there will be a motorised valve probably somewhere near your pump that directs water to your cylinder for hot water or your rads for heating sometimes they can stick, there is a small metal lever that sticks out the left side that you can use to open the valve manually. you should see this move when u turn on off the hot water at the controls.

Ahh my bad, I thought BSF was an acronym for Becta, That's confusing.

School technology quango Becta says it is "very disappointed" at the government's decision to close the organisation. The announcement was part of the government's plans to save £6bn across the public sector, with chancellor George Osborne expecting to save £80m by closing Becta. Becta aimed to provide cheap technology packages for schools by entering into deals with vendors. Schools were then required to use those suppliers. Becta's chief executive Stephen Crowne and chairman Graham Badman said, "Naturally we are very disappointed at the government's decision. Becta is a very effective organisation with an international reputation, delivering valuable services to schools, colleges and children. Our procurement arrangements save the schools and colleges many times more than Becta costs to run. Our Home Access programme will give laptops and broadband to over 200,000 of the poorest children." The organisation is in the middle of its Fit for the Future programme, with the tender process for technology partners being accelerated earlier this year. It would have seen the agency work with the technology industry to identify the main IT-related challenges the education sector will face over the coming years, such as making use of data and the technology skills of teachers. The contract award notice was due to be issued in May or June. Crowne and Badman said, "The main priority now is to make sure we have an orderly and fair process for staff, and that as far as possible schools, colleges and children continue to benefit from the savings and support that Becta has provided. We will be talking to government departments and our other stakeholders including the industry about this."

What kind of RAID are you running and over how many disks?

What OS are you running the scripts on and what model of dell machines? does system information bring up the serial numbers? I know we've had some shuttles bought from a company that had its own custom bios splash screen and serial numbers replaced with there company name which was a pain.

I'm doing oracle and SQL at college, I'll dig out the oracle manual for you if you havnt cracked it soon, thin the suggestions are right might need to tweak the syntax slightly for your version of SQL. I never knew until todays lecture that you could assign variables in SQL and other such cool stuff.

yeh I'm on fire today, i even spelt it right (miracle) haha

Its caused by dirty power from your alternator, I remember when i was a kid on the school bus we always had atlantic 252 longwave on and it would always go crackerly when passing under power lines lol. FM is frequency modulation as oppose to AM applitude modulation so its alot less susceptible to RF noise, your interferance could be caused by the grounding on the car or might be from the RF generated by the alternator. if you buy cheap car amplifiers they can whine or buzz too that change with the speed of the alternator, Mine did and i used a beefy high voltage diode out of an old TV between the ground connection on the amp, you can buy proper suppressors and if youve ever fitted a car stereo before you shouldnt have any trouble fitting one, but it might not solve the problem if its RF interferance affecting it, im no expert though, maybe the suppressors fit to the alternator grounding and might stop it? Ask in some Ford owners forums is your best bet.

I'll give you the script I use if it will help, it renames the machines from serials and then I use a batch file to add a start-up reg entry that runs another vb script upon reboot to join the machine to domain, its dirty and it wont reset the SIDs but its worked for me untill i get a spare minute to work out the FOG method. Rename PC based on serial; Join machine to domain; I'll stress again its not perfect and it might not work for all motherboards, but it works for the ones ive used.

are your workstations trying to upgrade before the error, think were having similar issues with 2 or 3 staff laptops. the upgrade fails throws an error like that then tries to use the old install but will not let you log in. I did write the error code down today but cant bloody find it im having a really rubbish fortnight :-(

on there wiki, the bit that I read said they had the AD or LDAP page but it didnt work yet, Think the wiki probably wasn't up to date, I didn't spend ages with it I moved to openfiler and found it much more usefull as it easily pulls in AD users and you can do adjust share sizes and such on a per user or group basis. Another reason I chose openfiler is because of the linux filesystem as oppese to the FreeBSD one wich im not familiar with and don't fancy having to learn about should the array fail and I have to recover data (although it will be backed up).

I used freeNAS and but found it lacked proper AD support, I moved to Openfiler, and it's great.

I wouldnt bother upgrading XP to vista as it can cause lots of problems. If i was you I would simply boot gparted disk make another partition and install windows 7, then transfer what files and setting you need via a usb drove or you could create a swap partition that both OS's can see.

I used clonezilla for the FJ laptops with my vbs and batch file to rename by serial number n join dom, its pretty good and easy to add to the fog pxe menu, will use FOG to image other machines though as Clonezilla asks too many questions.
