Hi, my computer is running windows xp and connect the printer via USB port. I share this printer with another user on my network. Now I want to control the staticstic of the printing (number of page, user name or computer name) to my printer. Does anyone know how to do this? Do i need any script file to monitor with it?
Thank in advance

If you have replaced the CMOS battery to one of the correct size then it should work... Maybe you should clean the contacts if the old one leaked... It is very important that the flash bios jumper is not in when the computer is on... Use a voltmeter to check the voltage of the battery, and also if possible carefully check the voltage of the battery when it is in the computer. It should not drop. if i remember correctly the voltage for all cmos batteries is 3.0v.

Hi, In my company,at a same time..we are connecting to single machine(as server machine) through RUN command.At the time, we cannot(more than 10 peaople) connected to that particular machine.
When 11th machine entering the IP address in his RUN command and click O.K It shows the message as "No more COnnections can be made at this time".
When we ask about this to our System ADmin,he told that single machine (as server) has OS as WIndows XP.For the reason only we cannot get connected morethan 10 machines. If the Machine is 2000 server or 2003 server OS. then there is no problem for connecting more than 10 machines.
iS it true?
Is there any solution to connect more than 10 machines in window XP machine.

Yes, it's true. Workstation versions of Windows only allow 10 inbound connections. Server version limits depend on your licensing.

The only legal one is to use a Server version of Windows. XP doesn't have a server edition.

I have this issue with schools who cannot afford a windows 2003 server (the software is free under a M$ agreement).
To over come this I use an old PC with a large hard drive and a FreeNAS server (http://sourceforge.net/projects/freenas/). In 30 min you can have server up and running and use PC's and Mac's from the one file server.

Interesting. Will have to remember that when the need comes up.

Microsoft has been doing it for years when connecting to other OS Servers to sidestep licensing.

There's a program called Firefox Ultimate Optimizer who claims to optimize memory usage in Firefox. What the program do is call the EmptyWorkingSet function every 5 seconds. This function removes as many pages as possible from the working set of the process passed as a parameter.
When running, the Optimizer will reduce Firefox physical memory usage to less than 1MB. But if you click a link or do anything in the browser, Firefox will alocate more memory, until the Optimizer acts again. The number of page faults increases a lot (obviously) and virtual memory is the same.
I would like to read some thoughts on this strategy. Does it really worth it? If the working set can be reduced from ~60MB to <1MB (im my machine), why Windows don't do this automatically?
Thanks for any comments.

Is there any way that i can make a single EXE OR MSI file which executes a number of EXE files.
For Example
I need to make a EXE which executes all the windows updates EXE files.
I have an option of BAT file but i am unable to select automatically OK Cancel buttons.

Well from bat files you could use cscript to emulate clicking/keyboard, but there is probably a better and more reliable way..

Thanks for your reply.
can you please provide me the details of switches with exe files which will enable us to install it siletly or non-interactively. I have got exe files , i have made batch files, there are approx 83 windows update which i want to install and i can't sit clicking next for each one. I will really appreciate a prompt reply...thanks in advance.

Its probably better if you post this reply to Craster so he notices instead of me

Use a script (vbs or bat) that calls all the exes, and provides the command line switches to install them silently and non-interactively. If they're Windows updates, they'll have this support built into the exe.

From a command line, run the exe file with /? on the end. This will show you the available command-line switches. For example:
C:\>WindowsXP-KB921503-x86-ENU.exe /?
Usually, /quiet on the end will run the update will install it silently and non-interactively. You may also wish to control the reboots that some updates need using /norestart or /forcerestart.

How can i find out all the domain names defined in an IIS? Where are the domain names and folders mapped?
|
|
|
|
|
On the Web Site properties there is "IP Address:", to the right you'll see a button labeled "Advanced" ... that has the host header definitions.
Thats for 5.5 and 6.0 ... no clue about anything lower or higher than that

How do you get the properties for anything, ever, in windows?

Microsoft is making parallel computing and high performance computing more available to mainstream developers and to IT professionals. The beta is available at the Windows HPC Server 2008[^] web site.
Today at SuperComputing 2007, Microsoft is announcing:
- The first public beta of Windows HPC Server 2008[^].
- The Parallel Computing Initiative, a program creating a set of common multi-core development tools across desktop and cluster.
Windows HPC Server 2008, the successor to Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003, is based on the Windows Server 2008 operating system and is designed to increase productivity, scalability and manageability.
Windows HPC Server 2008 offers a feature set broader than compute that enables you to tackle the most challenging HPC workloads, including:
- New high-speed networking support
- Highly efficient and scalable cluster management tools
- Support for partners’ clustered file systems
- Advanced failover support
- Service-oriented architecture (SOA) job scheduler expanding the HPC market
Performance metrics have been improved as well.
- By upgrading Microsoft’s 2,048-core test cluster to Windows HPC Server 2008, the Linpack benchmark results have improved by 30%, matching the very best Linux efficiencies. Same hardware, new software. More importantly, Microsoft did it in two hours.
- One of the largest Windows-based clusters in the world at the University of Nebraska (1,151 nodes).
- Multiple customers are deploying large, mixed Windows+Linux clusters (University of Iowa, Cambridge, 3M, and Baker Hughes).
- Key ecosystem partners announcing new Windows support for mixed clusters (schedulers and clustered file systems).
The Parallel Computing Initiative outlines how Microsoft will create multi-core development tools, runtimes, programming models, libraries, and language extensions. The Parallel Computing Initiative provides a common vision across desktop and cluster, and why parallelism is strategic to Microsoft. Given that Moore’s Law will largely be driven by multi-core moving forward, Microsoft wants customers and partners to see Windows as their strategic multi-core development platform.
You can download the beta and white papers at Windows HPC Server 2008[^] web site.
