  1. Sounds more like a connection issue rather than an issue with the credentials. Does your internet connection require a proxy?
  2. The following registry entries (one does sticky keys, one does high contrast) sorted it for us.
  3. We've just started to deploy 64bit and not seen any issues so far, although we've only had few staff in over the summer so far testing it. It also seems to work fine alongside 32bit as well with regards to the Chrome profiles loading correctly, as long as it's the same version of 32 and 64bit being used.
  4. We did this a couple of years ago with this script run at startup, I'm not 100% on if ours were read only or not, but if that proves to be an issue you can change the read only property with a couple of VBS lines: How Can I Change a Read-only File to a Read-write File? - Hey, Scripting Guy! Blog - Site Home - TechNet Blogs OPTION EXPLICIT Dim objFSO, oExec, wshShell, objLogFile Const ForWriting = 2 Set wshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") If Not objFSO.FileExists("C:\ChangeOutlook2010PRFDone.txt") Then If objFSO.FileExists("C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\custom14.prf") Then objFSO.DeleteFile "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\custom14.prf", True objFSO.CopyFile "\\server\share\custom14.prf", "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office" End If Set objLogFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile("C:\ChangeOutlook2010PRFDone.txt", ForWriting, True) End If
  5. Best pair I've come across are these: TECEVO F3 Freedom Bluetooth Stereo Earphones With: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics - not much good for running as I find they tend to fall out with the weight, but I use them all the time in the gym doing weights and rowing, so would imagine they'd be okay for cycling, they are in ear though so will block out a lot of sound if you're on the road.
  6. Have you tried swapping print drivers between PCL5/6/Postscript?
  7. No idea about Veeam unfortunately
  8. We do this, however our setup is slightly different in that we have two SANs which are replicated via Fibre Link and then the Hyper-V hosts are connected to the SANs via iSCSI (copper) links. Assuming you're using storage built into the Hyper-V servers then you should be able to set it up fine, as there is an option in Hyper-V to set which link to use for replication/live migration IIRC
  9. Would probably help if you mention how many laptops there are and what access points you're using.
  10. Do they want different slideshow on each screen or the same on each screen?
  11. There's a GPO under Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Logon which is something along the lines of Wait for the Network at Startup - have you got this set to enabled?
  12. You'd be lucky if all your devices support 5GHz. It should give better range and less interference but lots of devices will only be 2.4GHz - I've found most Apple Products support it and newer Laptops/Tablets do but also a lot won't support it, a quick google search should reveal if the device supports it or not. Greenfield mode is supposed to increase throughput on 802.11n I believe, but given the shocking performance I've seen from most VM Superhubs you'll probably not notice much difference. I gave up on ours after not being able to get anymore than 10meg tops through wireless despite playing about with all the settings and got a separate TP-Link router running OpenWRT which is great.
  13. Sounds like it could be the firewall doing something strange, have you tried disabling it temporarily to see if that has any effect?
  14. I've used these and generally have found them pretty good, just make sure they're well stuck on/can support the weight as had one picture frame break when it fell off the wall after being up less than a couple of hours, otherwise the rest have all been fine and in place for 6+ months.
  15. I'd imagine you most likely have a separate start menu somewhere on the network for the students and you need to create the shortcuts in that start menu for the programs. This post should explain it a bit more: http://www.edugeek.net/blogs/thescarfedone/973-start-menu-desktop-redirection.html
  16. It's custom written, I'm planning on making it available for download once I've ironed out a few problems with it, drop me a DM though and I'll get something sent over to you
  17. We've got an app which grabs the Mac addresses and AD groups from our Spiceworks database so they can be woken up on a per machine or AD group basis, and updates automatically if the machine changes.
  18. How are you looking at what the CPUs are doing? If you're just looking through task manager try Process Explorer instead (Process Explorer) which should give a more in depth view as to exactly what processes are running.
  19. Hard to pin it down exactly without looking at the server direct but I'd imagine it's down to DNS scavenging not being turned on from the DNS server, and is your DHCP server set to update the DNS?
  20. Try changing the line which has: SELECT * FROM Win32_LogicalDisk to: SELECT * FROM Win32_LogicalDisk WHERE Name = 'C:' (haven't tried this, just a guess)

    Sibelius 7

    What problem/error are you actually getting?
  22. Long shot - but does it work if you hold down the shift key when you try to launch WMM? That workaround used to work for Movie Maker when launching through remote dekstop - no idea if it will here though.
