I found the sections here really helpful in relating to Prompt for a computer name in unattend.xml Sysprep a Windows 7 Machine

Hello. I would read about Exchange 2010 Server - ExPBA (Best Practice Analyzer) and give it a try. Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 - ExBPA (Exchange Best Practice Analyzer) Taken from the above link. Health Check The health check will warn you about any weaknesses on your Exchange server. Perhaps BPA's greatest strength is to alert you to those problems, which although not serious in themselves, will collectively slow down your server. Once ExBPA identifies an 'Issue', it gives you details, not only about the problem, but even better, on the solutions. Unless you have tried ExBPA, it's hard for me to put over just how many tests it can do, and therefore how much time ExBPA will save you in analyzing an Exchange Server's performance. In a word its - awesome.

I believe you can do this in two locations. Microsoft Office Customization Tool Modify user settings > Microsoft Office 2010 > Privacy > Trust center > Disable opt-in wizard on first run This is also available with the Office 2010 ADM/ADMX group policy administrative templates. User Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Microsoft Office 2010 > Privacy > Trust Center > Disable Opt-in Wizard on first run Download Office 2010 Administrative Templates and OCT download from Official Microsoft Download Center

Hello. You can use GPMC and use Group Policy Results to check which policies are applied to a computer. I have attached a screenshot that shows where abouts in a policy the settings are.

Hello. I am trying to set up shared contacts in outlook 2010 for our whole 'Technology' department. This is a combination of different sub departments. So Far I have created the account which hosts the shared contacts, and gave the relevant permissions to add the shared contacts folder to the selected users. To further organise this I would like to have each subset of the technology departments groups in separate contact lists. I would like our end users just to add one group which will then contain the sub groups and not add each sub group in individually. I have attached two pictures which will show what im trying to do. One is something I edited in mspaint. Thanks in advanced. This is what I currently have. This is what I would like.

Do you have the WSUS GPO's attached to the OU with computer accounts in?

If its not a Domain Group policy that is causing this then here is another thing to try. The Desktop tab does not appear in the Display Properties dialog box in Windows XP 1.Open Group Policy Editor by typing "gpedit.msc" in the Open: line of Run on the Start Menu. 2.Navigate to User Configuration | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Windows Explorer 3.In the right pane, double click on Turn On Classic Shell 4.Set the radio button to Not Configured then click OK

run gpresult from a command prompt on the XP machine, then use GPMC to find the policy.

I once came across something similar to this and my fix was these two polices: Computer Configuration> Policies> Administrative Templates> Point and Print Restrictions User Configuration> Policies> Administrative Templates> Control Panel> Printers> Point and Print Restrictions

Hello, connect the USB drive and look in disk management, diskmgmt.msc then try and change it's auto assigned letter.

Just a thought, but have you got a laptop and a known working vga cable? You can connect it directly to the projector and then eliminate one element that is known to cause purple screen, a faulty vga cable.

Hello. You can use the OCT and there is a section to apply a outlook prf which will auto configure outlook when first opened. Then the .msp can be deployed to the target computers via gpo. Deploy Outlook mail profile settings via GPO or script - HowTo-Outlook | HowTo-Outlook I would try this on a test OU first.
