i would strongly suggest you do the guides in the sequence i made them, ie: Vista first, then XP there is no reason not to and you will thank yourself for it later, the vista guide lays down the foundations for all the other guides cheers anyweb

have you tried an old fashioned reboot ?

hi there, are you having a WSIM problem ? if so please post it in the Windows SIM section, or if you have a WDS problem post it in this section in a new topic, i'm closing this topic now cheers anyweb

thanks for the update !

here's a hint rather than removal, you could just automatically add the computer to another collection via a query

just follow the guidelines in this post and you'll be up and running

are you runnning SqL on the same box ? are you sure its freezing or perhaps the hard disc is caching ?

what type of user are you logging on to the server as ?

Microsoft has made energy efficiency a key design element of Windows 7, focusing on better power management for end users and centralised tools for IT pros, company executives said Friday. Company engineers sought to make power management features more accessible than previous versions of Windows while at the same time, giving people the ability to customise settings. The operating system, which will be released in October, by default is smarter about what to turn on when, according to company executives. For example, the Bluetooth wireless services won't be activated until a device is connected and the DVD spindle will not fire up as often. full story > http://hardware.silicon.com/desktops/0,390...39442314,00.htm

it should work just fine, why do you want to go from Windows Server 2008 to 2003 anyway ?

from a client try and do a nslookup query nslookup and paste the results here also, can you post your sccm server logs here in zip format ?

it sounds like your dhcp server is not telling the pxe client where the pxeboot.com file is so is your dhcp server on the same server as the SCCM server or another one ?, if its on another one you'll need to configure options 60, 66, 67 iirc

when importing the pc using computer association, if you only use the MAC address do you see any problems ?

In a move to basically outflank the EU antitrust investigation, Microsoft has announced that all version of Windows 7 shipped in Europe will not include Internet Explorer 8 by default. This is reminiscent of the Windows XP N editions, which did not include Windows Media Player, but the difference here is that Microsoft will not ship versions of Windows 7 with Internet Explorer 8 in Europe. more > http://www.osnews.com/story/21657/Windows_...lorer_in_Europe

hi all i'm back from a weeks vacation without access to a computer, yes i had my mobile phone (old sony ericsson K610i) but surfing on that is not a pleasant experience and some functions just dont work, like banning or deleting spammers so, i came back to find 21 spams on the forums, that sux and i apologise for them getting through and not being deleted on time i've now re-instated a ban on the email address family *@gmail.com and hopefully that will calm things down, in addition i will now start looking for new moderators to join the crew any volunteers ? cheers anyweb

1. yes SQL will grab that memory and more until no more memory is left, unless you tell it (SQL) to limit the amount of memory it can use, see attached screenshot, change the value for Maximum Server memory MB to something that will leave more free for other tasks, but read the SQL best practise guides while you are at it, also, why are you not using SP3? 2. the length of time is based upon your Discovery settings in Site Settings 3. what do you mean it is not automatically registered ? and your client questions... 1. if client=no then no advertisements will work verify the firewall on your clients, is it on ? try turning it off to see does this behaviour change

no its not necessary, once the boot images are created you can reuse them

yes i believe that it has to create the image first locally, then it uploads that wim file to the server, at least in my experience it has cheers anyweb

what user did you do that as and did you try a Refresh in the WDS gui ?

good work Murda now I have a challenge for you, using what you have learned about deploying Office 2007, document the steps to do it here in a new Topic so that others may learn, please include screenshots cheers anyweb

the errors i see are which is usually DNS related.. the erst of the log looks ok though, so what is the exact failure you see here ?

first check the all systems collection on the server, is your client there and does it say 'client=Yes', next look at package status in the System status on the server to see that your packages are listed as ok, dont forget to distribute your packages *add them to a distribution point...* next you can check the logs on the client in c:\windows\system32\ccm\logs here is a full list of the logs and what they are for:

That's it ^, i found it by searching for Internet Explorer 7 in my All Windows XP updates with the following Search Folder Criteria

disable the firewall on the client try again, does anything happen ?

yes you can make separate packages for the language packs and the office 2007 pack, otherwise you'll be wasting a lot of bandwidth
