Just use the lightouch.iso in the deploy share to burn a boot CD that takes the place of the pxe boot on those ones. Had this before and the time taken to track down dodgey cables, messed STP settings or broadcast throtteling errors was way longer than just doing those few with a boot CD to kick into the MDT share.

Samsung smart TV's do that too You want dlna controls instead, remotes work to if it is acting as a dmr.

Plays on nexus 7 unsurprisingly as it is there pet format, does not work on Windows Phone 7

Mpeg4? Sure it is not 'free' but everything modern supports h264 and usually in hardware. Web is still expencive computationally and power wise so killing students battery life and the environment. Webm also relies on googles limited benevolence so it is not up front as to whether there will be issues in future, whether they decide to defend it against patents or not is up for debate still and it still has the computational drawbacks. Personally, do a YouTube. Keep both, h264 for efficiency, compatibility and, well everything then webm in case they mpeg group decide to become a problem.

Push and connect, isn't that related to wps and so totally compromised?

[wanted] blanking plate for the front of a Dell Optiplex 760
SYNACK replied to RabbieBurns's topic in Classified Adverts
Lucky, I've been campaigning for a 3d printer for a while, I want to 3D print a Halo Spartan armour costume. The models are avalible so they would be perfect - to scale :-) Anyhow, on topic your metalwork department should be able to crank some out in plastic, either that or assign a few science teachers to make polymer casts of one as a project. Personally I'd just super glue metal blanking plates on the back of the front plastic casing. I prefer to solve a problem permanently rather than perpetuate it by not addressing the inherent flaws in design, I.e. removable is a powerful suggestion in a school. -
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387808/ it's not just a movie, it is an enditement of society. Nostradamus eat your heart out.

OMFG, we agree on something :-) , draytek also make some good kit.

Unfi is great in certain situations but simply don't address certain things, for a 90 user site it should be fine however anyone who does not admit that ruckus or Aruba hardware is technologicly superior and handles way more edge cases is delusional. kia make fine cars that work alright but compared to an Audi or bmw they just don't have the same depth of experience and skill. Referencing the dacia, I almost need to reference captain slow :-)

You'd need a garden VAC to make a snowball in that picture.

I did something like this ages ago, you want to edit the proplus.XML or something like that to add the default state and keys. You can also use the office configuration wizard from the installer to generate a msu that houses all the settings that you can both add to the updates folder and call as a parameter to the setup.exe in a batch file on the CD. Sorry if I'm a bit scrambled but its been a couple of years since I did this with a DVD for a charity to standardise them from their spread between 95 and 2007. You'll only manage 10 min if your on a fast machine with no other versions of price and no service packs in the updates folder or by using 2013 instead.

[ipad] iPads in primary schools - proxy kills everything?
SYNACK replied to boojieben's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
Depends on the lea, some have a transparent proxy you can use and others require you setup your own transparent proxy to bypass security and let apples drivel through. Proxies really are at the end of their lifespan though as they generally just get in the way. If you have an Isa/tmg server or smoothwall this should not be too difficult to sort though.- 3 replies

Their new thing with office 2013 is sky drive pro which ties into SharePoint. You can also just map a sky drive collection page as a drive. Sky drive is consumer focused and they'll probably drop it eventually it to unify with pro at some inoppertune time that suites balmernomicly. It's reinvention should be a way off though as it's tied into Windows 8.

[sccm 2012] How to use SCCM with Ultrabooks with no network port
SYNACK replied to RabbieBurns's topic in O/S Deployment
Does SCCM support remote deployment media like MDT. You may be able to chuck the deployment share stuff on a USB key for the initial build and do it that way. -
[ms office - 2003] Why does Office think I'm offline?
SYNACK replied to bandgeekmafia78's topic in Office Software
Isa can easily be set as a transparent proxy thus solving the issue, you can even limit it to certain machine IPS . I think you can also force windows 8 to use the IE proxy information with a netsh command, think I saw @Arthur post about it. Edit: last bit was from a different thread, same command should force lower versions to look to the proxy too. -
I guess dell has tech MS may want, they seem to have mastered the broken and useless so you need a new one each year manufacturing process. I know lots of people have had good experiences with them but I've never had a good Dell.

Epson network projection software if you have the right projectors. There is network projection stuff built in to windows that uses reverse RDP. There are few devices that support it but a raspberry pi could probably be retrofitted to use that or even a reverse vnc connection.

That process is nowhere near as disapointing as when you actually get the device.

No great loss here, always found their workstation boards to be flake personally.

Just saw that on the news here, classic.

[ms office - 2003] Why does Office think I'm offline?
SYNACK replied to bandgeekmafia78's topic in Office Software
Going through some dodgey lea proxy from the nineties? -
Not sure, you'll probably have to do it manually. I think the BOINC client for distributed computing has some benchmarks in it to but they are all pretty limited to exactly what they are testing for. Larger metrics like responsiveness and Wi-Fi Antenna quality are things you'd want to test separately.
