@SchoolsBroadband ?

We use them and I haven't noticed anything. Can you be more specific about the Netsweeper problems?

Does that mean your pets aren't allowed to smoke, or you can't smoke your pets here?

We turn off Presenter View by default as so many teachers don't seem to be able to cope with it.

Office 2016, W10 LTSC, Sophos, VGA to projector, not had this reported. First thing I'd look at is video drivers I think. Are they on "Duplicate" or "Extend"? Does one cause the issue more than the other?

Despicable

Watched "Venom 2" on Friday - Very enjoyable, same humour as the first. Watched "Red Notice" on Saturday - Not a heavy thinking plot line, Ryan Reynolds playing a Ryan Reynolds character and Dwayne Johnson playing a Dwayne Johnson character, but good nonetheless and I feel worth more than the poor reviews it got.

Just received an email from the DfE out of the blue! It links to here; https://get-help-with-tech.education.gov.uk/assets To get all your devices details. Seems to work for me! Good luck!

Anyone know how t o find out the BIOS passwords on DfE laptops please? This ones an Asus.

My IP range is historic from when I was with Suffolk LA. I have since moved to @SchoolsBroadband and as far as I am aware, I can use which ever range I like. I do realise though that I would need to co-ordinate with them to change the subnet mask, and possible gateway, at the same time.

That says; 10.161.0.1 - 10.161.3.254 So does that mean I have to use that rather than 10.161.2.1 - 10.161.5.255?

So would that give me 10.161.4.x and 10.161.5.x?

Morning, We currently use 10.161.2.x - 10.161.3.x with a subnet mask of 255.255.254.0. I need to increase the number of IP addresses available. I know that I am currently at the max number of IPs with that mask so how do I increase? Presumably I will also need to get my provider to change the mask and DG on their router which I don't have access to? Thank you Stuart

Now getting a message here saying the service is closed, and then being redirected to a page where I can't get my BIOS passwords. Anyone got a clue please? Thank you Stuart

Yes, completely normal, but when you find out what the charges are you have the right to cancel at that moment.

Out of curiosity, why are you ruling out WDS?

Yup, definitely in Computer Configuraiton; HiberbootEnabled (Order: 1)hide Generalhide Action Create PropertiesHive HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Key path SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power Value name HiberbootEnabled Value type REG_DWORD Value data 0x0 (0) Just noticed it says "Create" though. Changing to "Update" and see what happens.......

I have a GPO with loads of settings in it which mostly works fine. It has a registry key in it which sets "hiberbootenabled" to 0. It isn't taking effect on the clients, I can't see any errors, and if I run a results wizard then there is no mention at all of that setting. Any idea where else I look, or why it may not be applying please? Thank you Stuart

That's the one where they have a car chase in "London", but suddenly none of the cars have GB plates and the architecture just isn't England at all, and they actually decided to film that bit in Cape Town.

You pay for it annually, £3.84 per licence.

Just got this through; So they're still telling me to use old versions which are EOL. Does anyone have an opinion on what they're saying about it not being part of Office so isn't a threat?

These laptops seem to be an absolute bag of garbage. I am never buying Lenovo's again. Relevant? - http://www.edugeek.net/forums/wireless-networks/217346-lenovo-v15-iil-wireless.html

Veeam, just the VMs also.

I'm waiting for their thermostat......

Thanks for this. The 32BIT version won't go on as we are running 64BIT office. Going to send this; 2013 is also EOL, and your manual says “To install the latest version of Microsoft Access database engine”. It’s now a dead link in your manual, but in 2018 when that manual is dated, the 2010 version was not the latest. Once again – Can you please confirm to me that the DfE are recommending I install an out of date, unsupported, unpatched piece of software on my network? Thank you
