  1. The screws on it are too short. Seems a bit of an odd way to mount though, as these desks flip up and down, so surely with the monitor just 'hooking' on it'd fall off easyily?
  2. Im confused. So i just need to get some screws, or is there some type of mounting plate that i need?
  3. Hi. Im trying to spec up a system that has the purpose of video recording. But im unsure on a few things. Heres what i have thus far: CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 Mobo: Asustek P5K-VM Mem: Kingston ValueRAM 2x1GB PC6400 GFX: onboard SND: onboard Optical 0: LiteOn 20X DVD+/-RW/RAM IDE Optical 1: LiteOn 20X DVD+/-RW/RAM IDE HDD 0: Hitachi Deskstar 7K160 80GB Case: Antec NSK 4480 PSU: Comes with case Monitor: Iiyama 20" E2003WS Speakers: Built into monitor Keyboard: n/a Mouse: n/a Tuner: Pinnacle Systems PCTV Dual Hybrid Pro PCIe Media Center Remote: Comes with tuner. The thing im a little unsure on is storage. The HDD speced there is literally just for the OS. Im unsure wether to get: - A large 1Tb drive for the system, mounted internally. - Have 2x500Gbs in RAID Mirroring. - Have an external drive for storage. - Have a NAS for storage. Thoughts? Thanks in advance all. .
  4. Some of those features look great. The registry ones look handy, and it looks like the settings are finally laid out logically! . Wouldnt mind moving to 2008 when the network here gets rebuilt, but our LEA wont support us if we do. .
  5. Hi. Can anyone help me find the right sort of mount that i would need to connect the monitor to the desk thing in the two attached pics? Ive been bugging Dell for ages, but they've been useless! Thanks in advance.
  6. So i should get the core books in a few weeks time. Then will start studying. When are the new ones coming into play? As im wondering which ones i'll get when i come to do an exam?
  7. Already looked at that. Gonna wait to see what powdarrmonkey can conjure up for me. .
  8. Im looking to do a MSCA now, and have persuaded SMT to buy me the core MSCE books. Are they gonna be able to be used on these new qualifications?
  9. Thats confusing. So the MSCE & MSCAs are ceasing to be, and in their place there will just be MCITP. And the MCPs will become MCTS? So i take it bar the names, its gonna be mostly the same, so several MCTSs in the right areas will = a MCITP?
  10. So do all you get a lump sum? And then you decide when computers/laptops/printers are needed? Because all i get is an amount for 'repairs'. And then anything above that has to be something ive had planned, and then approved at the beginning of each financial year. With the head of ICT deciding/suggesting to SMT rooms that need new computers in.
  11. When are they changing and what to?
  12. Thanks. Appriciate it.
  13. 2003. Ive checked the templates, but cant find nout useful. .
  14. Hi. Can someone help me with MS Access. Im trying to create a basic database that has one table/form for pupils, one for incidents, and then all the incidents that that pupil is involved in listed on that pupil form. With the 'menu' form on the database allowing editing of pupil information and editing of incidents. Its basically something to log incidents that specific pupils do, with the ability to see what incidents each pupil has done by just looking at their name. Can anyone help me with this?
  15. Yes. It appears to be a problem with the laptop that im trying to do it on, i wacked all the drives into a normal system and ghost picks everything up. Then in the process of cloning back to the new 160Gb, i didnt realise that the 160Gb drive i was temporarily using to store the image, the drive with lots of my work and whatnot on, was wiped! :-o . Luckily, i dont think,theres nout on there that i need. Hopefully. .
  16. Hi. I just got a new HDD for my diagnostic laptop. Its existing drive is a 40Gb split up into 4 partitions (windows, swap, temp, data). Ive been trying image it to a USB drive, and then reimage that back to the new 160Gb drive. But im having no end of problems. First Ghost wont pick up the USB drives, even though it used to. And second, it keep crashing out when i try imaging to the network! Ideas?
  17. Ive tryed everything to get the LameMP3 encoder to work. The regedits ive tryed dont appear to work unfortunatelly. . Could really do with that MSI file with Lame already configured/intergrated into Audacity.
  18. Not sure on the RIS question, but moving your images should just be a case of moving the files over on whatever medium is convienient?
  19. Any idea on my problem ICTNUT?.
  20. I was thinking of setting it up somewhere as an info screen?
  21. Hi. Im looking at doing a MCSE. Ive managed to persuade SMT to buy me the self paced training kit for the core parts of it. And then they'll buy me the other 3 when ive chosen them. But im unsure which of those 3 to go for. I was planning on: Vista AD Design & Infrastructure and Exchange 2007. Are they worth going for or should i look at the other ones? Ive been using this: http://www.qa-iq.com/ContentManagement/CMContentFiles/Documents/MCSE%20Courses-Exams%20Summary.pdf As my reference for it all thus far. And how 'hard' is the MCSE exactely? Thanks in advance all. .
  22. I have a vanilla network here. Ive got the domain level GPO specifying things like login text. A gpo per user group for settings for those users. A gpo per computer room to allocate specific printers. GPOs over all the computers for specific software installs, one per software. And the same again for settings.
  23. Ive been wanting to do that here. How do you get that put through though? As your gonna need a paper trail for auditing are you not?
  24. What do you mean by: "catalyst approved suppliers and regional consortiums" Not come across that before tbh. At our place, we only have to get 3 quotes if its over a grand. So what i generally do is spec up with one supplier, then send the same email out to 4-5 others. Wait for them to come in, then print them, staple them together with an order form. Sign the order form, pass to a head of IT for signing as well (aparently theres only 4 people in the school that can sign off on purchases?) and then give it to the burser for ordering. Bit long winded, but its not too bad.
  25. How many CCTV cameras? IP based?
