Thanks for that. its very reassuring about the Lenovo's as we have 2 currently on test (R61i). Like you mentioned we had a few teething issues, but never seen it in the help desk since

It coming up to the new financial year, and we are looking to roll out new teacher laptops. Does anyone have any recomendations of laptops? Anything would be of great help. Thanks

Just got myself a nice new MacBook, and I was wondering if anyone knew of any good freeware games for Mac? Thanks.

Just about to sit throught am presentation about Promethean interactive boards. Any one got any question suggestions? Or please let me know if you have had any issues with Promethean kit. Sorry for the rush! Thanks:bowl:

We have just been told to close the school immediately by the county council. Word is now circulating that all Lincolnshire schools are to close.

Well I was told it made headline press but I haven't had the time to look into it. We still buy our MS licenses from them.

Well all I know at the moment is Ramesys dont send out the original CD's but a copy with there branding. Someone also said it was a possibility that they had a massive volume license type thing to resell, but never registered half of them with Microsoft. Hence the stupidly cheap prices!!

I heard on the grape vine today that Ramesys Licensing was being investigated for fraud by Microsoft!?

We use the task scheduler to run scripts during the week day, works fine!

No work is stored on the profile. Mainly app data and settings. As in the server should see no folder ad recreate one? This is how it worked at my last site but not here!

Why would you want to restart a server tis often?

We have got a set group of Year 11 students that have individual roaming profiles. Since some changes we want to clear out these profiles. Does anyone use software to do this or just a manual job!? Thanks

Same for us in a way. We do not restart any machines during the working day. Should something need to be restarted in an emergency then thanks to ESX a server is usually back up within 5 mins. One of the benefits of virtualisation

A very out dated response here ...... but I really like that idea of your Joomla based active desktop!!

PowerPoint viewer literally does what it say on the tin! It wont let you edit or save!

We use Hitachi Cambridge StarBoards which may solve the issue of damage! The surface is touch sensitive but wont be affected if someone decides to put a hole in it!! Found them to be great against teacher rage!!

We only reboot servers out of hours when updates require it. Other than that ESX just manages everything beautifully. Every 2 weeks does sound excessive to me!

Hi All, We are trying to install Office Comunications Server 2007 and everything was going swimingly until it came to Step 2, deploying the server. Everything installs correctly but then the installation fails at the following step (as recorded in the error log) : Activate Web Components Server IIS Virtual Directory Setting Failure [0x800407D0] Any help would eb a great help as we are at a loose end for this one. Thanks.

Has anyone managed to solve this issue? I also have the JCE editor published but with no styles. Everything else seems to be working fine.

I have found that Elephant.co.uk was the cheapest car isurance for young drivers.

Thanks for that.

Hi all, I have 2 displays connected to my main PC now and I have just set it to "Horizontal Stretch". The only problem is, is that all my apps when loading appear in the middle, or they maximise across 2 screens. Does anyone know how to stop this (if possible)? Thanks. [This is on WinXP]
