The installer includes support for generic IDE devices, CDROMs connected via an Adaptec SCSI interface, and CDROMs connected via USB. If your drive doesn't fit into any of these categories, then the installer also includes the ability to use a driver you provide (although in many cases finding a USB CDROM drive will be easier than finding a driver . . .).

If your machine is of sufficiently high specification to run the MWS, it is likely to have a hard disk of sufficient size. Problems would arise if your existing setup was partitioned such that the partition you wanted to install the MWS into was not big enough, but you did not want to delete the other partitions on the disk.

No. Although the initial stage takes the required files from the CDROM, the later stages (once you're onto the Applications CD) require access to our network. The machine needs to have a network card, and needs to be correctly cabled to a working network wall point within the University in order for the installation to complete. Network connectivity is also required to check for patches and files made available after the CD set release, and to register the workstation in the NDS.

No. The workstation must be connected to the University of Liverpool network at the time of the installation. There is a chicken and egg problem here in that the machine needs to automatically log in to continue the installation process, but the VPN software must be signed in before this is possible. However, the VPN can only be launched once logged into windows. Generally this isn't a good idea, but it can be useful in some circumstances.

Although Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 has released, it is recommended that you wait to install this service pack with Windows Small Business Server 2003 Service Pack 1. For more information, see Windows Small Business Server 2003 and Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Known Issues. For information about migrating from Small Business Server 4.5 or Small Business Server 2000 to Windows Small Business Server 2003, see Upgrading to Windows Small Business Server 2003. No.

When installing service packs for Microsoft Office 2003 they must be installed directly after the Microsoft Office. This is due to a bug in CrossOver virtual drive letter support. A fix for this issue is expected in CrossOver 6.1. The Slideshow in PowerPoint does not work. 4.3.2. PowerPoint XP never starts or exits right after startup. The slideshow requires components that are installed by Internet Explorer so you need to make sure that it is installed. You can install Internet Explorer 6.

No software of any sort can truly low-level format today's modern drives. The ability to low-level format hard drives was lost back in the early 1990's when disc surfaces began incorporating factory written "embedded servo data". If you have a very old drive that can truly be low-level reformatted, SpinRite v5.0 will do that for you (which all v6.0 owners are welcome to download and run anytime).

The usual cause of this problem is a mis-configured CDROM drive. Many PCs now ship with the CDROM as the slave device on the secondary IDE controller, with no master device on that controller. This is illegal according to the ATAPI specification, but Windows plays fast and loose with the specification, and the BIOS ignores it when booting. This is why the BIOS was able to see the CDROM to boot from it, but why FreeBSD cannot see it to complete the install.

Early Beige G3 machines (those with a "Rev 1" motherboard with an ATI RageII+ chip) do not support slave IDE drives. To use a second hard drive with this machine, you would have to attach it to the internal or external SCSI connector, use install a PCI IDE card. Later G3 machines do not have this limitation. See http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G3-ZONE/IDE/index.html for more information. I have a revision A or B iMac.

Please make sure that you have been granted access before attempting to log on to view the bill for your department.

The user name is always in the same format as: wvu-ad\userid-hsc (you have to enter the entire thing including the wvu-ad\ and the userid.

The Serial ATA controller cannot be automatically recognized under Windows 2000/XP installation. You will need to install drivers for SATA controller prior to installing Windows 2000/XP. If you do not install the SATA controller drivers, Windows will not recognize the SATA drive. The drivers for SATA controller are available on floppy disks during operating system installation process. If you have CDs only, copy the driver into the floppy disks before attempting to install Windows 2000/XP.

Due to a collection of hardware and software limitations, it is currently not possible to install Windows via a USB drive.

Some files on the Mac contain supplemental information that is associated with the file. While the Mac can keep these associations intact, other operating systems (such as Windows) cannot since they are not built to understand such supplemental information.

The LH and LG CDROMs are designed for running on a specific computer configuration. Please make sure that your computer system has the minimum requirements for the CDROM. It is printed on the back of the CDROM jewel case and also in the User Booklet. This will happen when you have an older CDROM drive. You will require atleast 8X CDROM drive, a 16X or better is recommended. Check audio driver setting and the Win95 configuration for your particular sound card.

Just like in a PC, you get a primary and secondary channel, and each can support two devices to give you a total of four UDMA 66 IDE devices connected. There is only enough space to install two hard drives (or other 3.5" devices) and a 5.25" CD-ROM though.

You need to self-register to obtain a Managed Windows Service (MWS) username and password and this will give you access to the Online Library resources. Follow the instructions on the Register Here Library web page to find out how to do this. Please read through the instructions provided carefully.

Since September 2005, anyone registering for a University of Liverpool Managed Windows Service (MWS) username and email account is asked to set a secret question and answer. This can be used to verify your identity with the Computing Services Helpdesk in cases such as a forgotten MWS password. If you have not previously set a secret question or wish to change the one you did set, please go to: http://liv.ac.uk/mwssecretquestion.

WAIS runs as a true service if the "Automatic Startup" box is checked in the "Options" tab. To uninstall it as a service, you need to uncheck this box and then REBOOT the computer. directory. At the DOS prompt, enter: WAIS -install (alternatively you can click START->RUN and then in the "Open" box enter: d:\weatheractive\WAIS -install where "d" is the drive letter where the "WeatherActive" folder is located.

There can be multiple reasons for not detecting the hard drive. The hard drive might be SCSI. The hard drive size might be under 500 MB. Make sure that you boot with an IDE hard drive and it has disk space more than 500 MB. Honeywall uses 500 MB disk space for swap and remaining for storing the logs.

When I installed Windows NT on my PC9 on the first reboot, it rebooted to Invalid Page Fault in the NTOSKERNEL.EXE error "Blue Screen of Death" memory error screen.

No Officially, the word from Dell is "no", and further investigation reveals that the 400SC uses the ICH5 (82810EB) southbridge, as shown in this picture. The Intel data sheet confirms that RAID support is only available on the ICH5R (82810ER) chipsets. Additionally, the BIOS only shows the option to enable/disable SATA, no RAID configuration. Also, Intel's Application Accelerator is not supported by the 400SC's chipset. It has become a RAID only utility.

Yes. If the drive is smaller than 500 Mbytes, Windows 98 uses original FAT16 instead of FAT32. The Windows 98 setup will advise you of the free space requirements, which are slightly greater than the requirements of Windows 95. Your existing boot diskettes (of any version of a Microsoft operating system) will not be able to recognize a FAT32 disc partition. You will not be able to start Windows 98 if you boot your system with a Windows 95a Startup diskette.

I own a laptop with an Operating System that supports ‘Moffice’. However, my computer does not recognize ‘Moffice’ once it is plugged in. When using Windows 98SE, It is necessary to install the driver file first before connecting ‘Moffice’ to the USB port. The first possibility is that you have not installed the driver (Windows 98SE only).

If you are installing Windows XP on a system where you only have Serial ATA Drives you might encounter a problem where Windows does not seem to detect your Hard Drive and reports "No mass storage device found" during an installation (this occurs in Windows NT and Windows 2000 as well). This is because there are no SATA HD drivers in Windows XP/2K/NT and you need to load 3rd party drivers (just like with many SCSI drives).

Not at this time. The current RIS process always reformats the hard disk and all existing data on the hard disk is destroyed. This is a feature of RIS as delivered by Microsoft.

Microsoft recommends a minimum 40 GB hard disk that has 15 GB of free space. NJIT strongly recommends a minimum 80GB Serial ATA hard disk with 20 GB of free space. Note that the different versions of Windows Vista have different requirements. When NJIT releases and begins support of Windows Vista, it will be only for Windows Vista Business edition.

Microsoft does not provide installation/driver support for SATA hard drives in Windows XP. However, there are workarounds for Windows installs. The first two methods assume you have either a spare floppy or IDE drive to use temporarily. If this is not possible, you'll need to slipstream the drivers (see below). Copy the SATA drivers to a floppy disk (these can usually be found on your mainboard support disk. Usually these consist of PIDE/SATA Folders and TXTsetup.oem files.
