Go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections right click on your wireless adapter, properties, ipv4, properties, and make sure obtain IP automatically is set and obtain DNS automatically is set.

Please do, I'm looking at doing a similar thing.

"This issue occurs if the original operating system contains a registry key that is larger than 8 kilobytes (KB). " Sometimes I really do wonder how problems occur over the tiniest of things.

Clint Boessen's Blog: Migrate Data to New Domain without ADMT

I've read somewhere, where people have created a Ghost image of the virtual server and then installed it on to the physical. Or maybe it's possible to sysprep it and create an image from that and inject the drivers needed for the physical server, in to the image, but I'm not too sure.

Can you not do this by disabling them from mapping network drives?

Windows 7 can only have 1 remote desktop connection at a time. Use another server.

Well, I'm guessing either: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\windows\Start Menu\Programs or... C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs (for some reason it keeps replacing W I N D O W S without the spaces, with window s)

Terminal services with rd gateway to encrypt the session.

You could get them to press ALT in Windows Explorer and then a bar will come up at the top where they can press file --> new --> file, folder etc..

You could go to an ordinary 64bit PC, print management, print servers, your print server, drivers, and then add the 64bit drivers there.

In the Microsoft Agreement (for Windows 7, but I'm guessing this can be applied to the rest of the operating systems), it states: "The software is licensed on a per copy per computer basis. A computer is a physical hardware system with an internal storage device capable of running the software. A hardware partition or blade is considered to be a separate computer." and... "One Copy per Computer. You may install one copy of the software on one computer. That computer is the “licensed computer.” b. Licensed Computer. You may use the software on up to two processors on the licensed computer at one time. Unless otherwise provided in these license terms, you may not use the software on any other computer. c. Number of Users. Unless otherwise provided in these license terms, only one user may use the software at a time."

Haha, surprisingly enough, Google Maps is able to produce a route to the heart of India, but not to China, oh well; nothing will beat a good old map.

"They do need to install printers and add the laptops to their home network."

How about a login script which will run on the local user's account, which will check if it's connected to the school network, and if they are connected, the script will log off the local account. I'm guessing this could be done by pinging a server in your network, then if the ping request receives a reply, log the local account off. EDIT: But then again, if they disable wireless on the laptops, they could skip this.

So you want to disallow local access when connected to the domain, but allow local access when at home?

That was also mentioned in the thread I posted above. Instead of no longer using it though, couldn't you use a .reg file to write the settings instead?

Can't you just add another virtual disc? And then use this to help you: How can i move Exchange 2007 DB and storage group to another drive, I&#39m running out of space on C

How about creating a batch file, then add it as a logon script. rmdir /s /q "C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Downloads" rmdir /s /q "C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Links" rmdir /s /q "C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Saved Games" rmdir /s /q "C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Desktop" rmdir /s /q "C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Contacts" and so on...

What about just adding... TASKKILL /F /IM "explorer.exe" explorer.exe ...to your batch file, maybe not the best solution, but if stopping and restarting explorer works, this should do.

Surely your serial key could be used as proof of purchase, "Proof of purchase can be: PID Number/CD Key number". Also, I've just read some where that it's not illegal to download Windows if you have a valid serial key; it's illegal to crack Windows or bypass the activation technologies. However, I'm unsure of that.
