While I was in Canada on business I had time to do a little sight seeing, here is the highlights from the 12 hour trip!
Niagara Falls consisting of: American Falls on the left and Bridal Veil Falls the smaller waterfall (its “only” 56 feet/17 m wide) to the left of it and at the back you can see Horseshoe Falls
Every once in a while I setup a ThinkPad where the WiFi is not working (not even detected in the device manager) and as Im forgetfull I waste time doing the wrong things, thats why Im writing this!
The fix is to go into the BIOS and turn it ON!!! On some systems its in a ghost mode where its not ON or OFF!
Microsoft Office Excel 2003 crashes every time I close it!
Click for full size!
Microsoft Excel has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Click for full size!
AppName: excel.exe
ModName: msvcrt.dll
Reinstalling or repairing Office or Excel does not fix the problem!
Apparently the problem is caused by bluetooth drivers instaltion
The solution is to edit the registry change
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\
Excel\Addins\BtOfficeAddin.BtOfficeIntegration.1]
“LoadBehavior”=dword:00000003
to:
“LoadBehavior”=dword:00000000
UPDATE!!! Microsoft Office Word 2003 will not save!
I have encountered a similar problem in Word that can be fixed the same way as the above excel crash.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\
Word\Addins\BtOfficeAddin.BtOfficeIntegration.1]
“LoadBehavior”=dword:00000003
to:
“LoadBehavior”=dword:00000000
I just had a Lenovo 3000 N200 with Windows Vista that would not “boot” it just showed a black screen with the error code: 0XC0190036 !! 1234/72265 (Random.file) flashing onscreen
What I could read online was that the random.file (in my case xcopy.exe) was corrupted and therefore Vista would not continue… The fix is to delete the file and on a Lenovo that can be done from Rescue and Recovery preboot area, by opening the Opera browser and choose “save as” on a random link then browsing to the file thats corrupted (c:\windows\system32\xcopy.exe) right click on it and select DELETE, then cancel the save.
Now just reboot and SP1 should replace the missing file!
If you are running out of disk space, because your transaction log files is filling up your HD, you can either:
Turn on circular logging or How Circular Logging Affects the Use of Transaction Logs
Perform a full backup to commit the transaction logs (recommended)
But Windows Server 2008 does not come with a backup program for Exchange but if you dont want to buy a 3rd party backup program you can use NT Backup from Windows Server 2003
You will need to copy the following files to a folder on your Windows Server 2008:
ntbackup.exe
ntmsapi.dll
vssapi.dll
Now simply run ntbackup.exe and backup your exchange stores
Apparently when you install Windows Server 2008 a hibernation file is created (hyberfil.sys) on your C:\ drive, I do not intend to hibernate my new Exchange server!
So I disabled hibernation by using this command at an elevated command prompt: powercfg.exe /h off
Today I recived this error in Outlook on one of my users computers:
Task ‘mail.somedomain123.com – Receiving’ reported error (0×800CCC90) :
‘Your incoming (POP3) e-mail server has reported an internal error.
If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).
The server responded: —————————————————–’
Apparently Outlook had a problem retrieving one of the messages, but after deleting it from the webmail Outlook had no problems retriving mail again!
Politiken.dk har en artikel om at Anders Fogh bruger sine Facebook-fans i reklamer og den tidligere redaktør, på Nyhedsavisen, David Trads er en af dem, som mener han er blevet brugt i en annonce for Venstre uden at have givet tilladelse til det.
Men hvis man nu læser Facebooks Anvendelsesvilkår har han måske nok bevilliget Facebook ret til:
“en uopsigelig, evig, ikke-eksklusiv, overførbar, fuldt betalt, global licens (med ret til at underlicensere) til at bruge, kopiere, opføre offentligt, vise offentligt, omformatere, oversætte, uddrage (helt eller delvist) og distribuere dette brugerindhold til ethvert formål, kommercielt, reklamemæssigt eller øvrigt, på eller i forbindelse med websiden eller promovering heraf, til at udarbejde afledte værker af dette brugerindhold, eller indarbejde det i andre værker, og til at bevillige og bemyndige underlicenser af ovenstående.”
If SAV asks for a password when you try to uninstall it and the default password “symantec” does not work try this:
1. Start > Run > Regedit
2. Goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\INTEL\LANDesk\VirusProtect6\CurrentVersion\Administrator Only\Security\
3. Change the value for “useVPuninstallpassword” from 1 to 0
4. Close the registry and retry the uninstall!
