WHAT HAPPENS WHEN...........

I have a dual boot set up with 98se and XP. The 98 drive is hurtin and is gonna give up the ghost soon. What happens when I replace it with a new drive? Will I have to Reactive XP? I hope not. BIGDADDY51CT. Any info?

Hi bigdaddy,
Have you installed the other drive after the XP disk was installed?
If the stuff worked well in that case you can easily change disks, coz it worked in the past.
Have a look at on which drive the files :NTDLR, boot.ini, ntdetect, are because that's the drive XP is booting from. That is your actual C:\.
If those files are on the defective drive you have a problem because I don't know if you can copy them to another drive and make them working.
If you are going to try and copy you CANNOT boot to XP and copy them coz they are locked, make sure to see hidden files in the explorer else you won't be able to see them.
This is not going to be easy so good luck,
@lbert

  • What happens when an iPod is synchronized with an iTunes library that is bigger than the available space on the iPod?

    What happens when an iPod is synchronized with an iTunes library that is bigger than the available space on the iPod? I did this some time ago. On screen was shown available space somewhat less than 120 GB, but maybe somewhere between 10 and 20 GB more in the library. I had to get the iPod updated anyway, so I did proceed. However, afterwards the total content of the library was only about 110 GB. Now I wonder what did actually happen. Was the first sign only corrected for double copies of the same files or lost files or where files deleted from iTunes? And if files where deleted from iTunes, were they also deleted from my computer?

    Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one.  Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

  • What happens when multiple users access the same servlet?

    Do the users share all the same resources? Or is a new process generated for each user? I have a servlet that builds a string to return to the user and I only have myself to test, so I can't really see what happens when many users access the servlet. Is there a possibility that the string will get screwed up, like when dealing with multiple threads, or do all the users get their own resources and I don't have to worry about that?

    huh? if you can point a test servlet at it, you can point a browser at it (even if the servlet does not serve html it will run)
    try pasting the servlet URL into a web browser
    refreshing multiple browsers repeatedly could provide a manual test

    I want to change my Apple ID because I have a new email address, but what happens when someone tries to facetime me using my old Apple ID? Will they still be able to contact me on facetime using my old Apple ID?

    Not if you change the ID.  You would need to give them the new address.

  • I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imac so I could install Windows 7 Home Premium and had no trouble everthing is working fine the only question I have is is there a benefit to migrating the 2 together and what happens when I do Thanks.  Ricco

    I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imack so I could install Windows 7 Home Premiumwith no problem and everthing is working fine, and I was thinking of Migrating the 2 2 and was wondering what benefits there would be and what happens when I do.

    Windows 7 will peer down through the VM and remember what hardware the VM is installed on. Migrate the VM to different Mac hardware, and on first boot, Windows 7 will advise you that you are not using genuine Microsoft Windows. It will then treat you as though it believes you misappropriated it.

  • Time Machine backup created on Mac with a large hard disk. What happens when restore to MacBook Air with small SSD drive?

    What if a Time Machine backup was created on a Mac with a large hard disk, e.g. 500GB iMac - and I buy a new MacBook Air with a small SSD hard disk e.g 128GB. What happens when I need to use the larger Time Machine file to set up the new MacBook Air? What happens to all those files that can't fit on the smaller SSD drive?

    It is not the HD size, but rather the size of the data it contains. If you right-click your 500GB drive and select "Get Info" you can see how much is actually being used.
    Naturally if you are using more space than the new drive has, then you have to make some choices about what you want to keep and what you want to keep archived.
    I don't know what options are available but you may simply have to do a manual restore of files you want, in groups.

  • What happens when I restore data to a non-factory set iPhone?

    Okay, another iCloud question. What I did was basically delete a game, start a new one, and now I want my old game back (saved to ICloud). What happens when I restore full data to a non-factory set iPhone? Will it overwrite current data? Will it delete everything? I just want to know, I'm such an iOS noob. :-/

    A restore is all or nothing.
    If a backup is restored to the device, ALL data currently on the device is wiped and replaced with the data from the backup.
    Restoring a backup to get one saved game back seems rather extreme and silly.

  • What happens when HTTPS communication fails during certificate check?

    Hello Experts,
    I have a scenario where a Bapi functionality(server proxy) is exposed as a webservice .
    So scenario will be SOAP -> XI -> Proxy (calls a BAPI)
    Here we are going to use HTTPS (SSL).
    I would like to know :
    What happens when a check for certificate validation fails in XI? It may be due to invalid certificate, expired certificate or a request from unauthorised user-
    - Will it be raised as a exception and we need to do some  configuration to inform it back to Sender?
    - Will the message fail in Moni with red flag ?
    - Alerts will be created ?
    Please share your experiences and expert sugestions.
    Thanks in Advance!!
    Regards,
    XI Queries.

    Hi Abhishek,
      Thanks for the reply. I will keep this in mind and design the scenario & error handling accordingly.

  • What happens when max job limit of few RAS server is reached?

    Hi, I would like to know what happens when max job limit of server is reached. I know that we need to increase the job limit but my question is a bit different.
    We have 7 RAS per servers. I got this message "The maximum report processing jobs limit configured by your system administrator has been reached" on 4 RAS servers but not all 7. I am tracking servers using PIDs on WIndows server 2003.
    Does this means this is a warning that Job limit of 75 (in our case) has reached for 4 servers and for remaining 3 servers its still not reached. This means 3 servers are still able to handle more report request as they have not reached their max limit.
    OR
    This message means all of the servers have reached to their max limit and there is no more request which can be taken.
    We are doing 3000 users performance testing on 21 RAS servers.
    We are on BOXI R2 SP3 on IIS and opening crystal reports using .NET SDK.
    Thanks,

    This is same as my other question so I am closing this too. We have set limit as unlimited and during peak load we had almost balanced reports on all RAS.

  • What happens when Time Machine starts to fill up a drive?

    Using Time Machine on a partitioned External HD has been an absolute snap! I love the app. My main disappointment with it is that it has no literature on HOW it works, and no real ways for me to set different controls for it other than on and off.
    My question is that what happens when a drive starts to get full? I have about 30 gigs left on the partition, and I am wondering what Time Machine is going to do. Does it just delete the oldest material, or does it simply fill up and tell me to look at everything on there and decide to clear it all off. I hate that I don't know what will happen.
    -Jon

    From what I've read (I've not gotten a drive full so I can't speak from experience), when the TM drive gets full, it will notify you that it's going to start deleting the oldest backups to make space for the new ones. This general behavior is mentioned in the Mac Help for Time Machine, though it makes no mention about notifying you before it deletes the old backups, so I'm not sure about that part.

    Well, you can't really make a judgement about a company's enterprise products based on an experience with their consumer products.What if it came from what they call a business products catalog? They intermingle laptops with servers.
    Don't know, in general. I do know that for Dell there is a distinct difference between their decidedly consumer laptops (Inspiron) and their "business" Lattitude series. I know that at my last job we had a lot of rock solid HP equipment (servers and SAN) - vs. an HP laptop I had that was trouble from Day One. I'm sure there is a point in desktops and laptops the line can get blurred, but in the case of the OP, he was no where near that fuzzy line.

  • What happened when multiple audio players start at the same time?

    Hi,everyone!
    I am developing a game, using JMF to play sound.
    These sound are stored in mp3 files.
    In order to decode mp3 files, I installed JMF and mp3-plugin( jmf-2_1_1e-windows-i586.exe , javamp3-1_0.exe).
    In the Game, a background music play back repeatly.When EndOfMediaEvent happened, I setMediaTime(new Time(0)) and then start().It works well.
    There are several sound-effects,may start at any time,
    so 2 or more sounds may play back at the same time,
    and then Strange things happened.
    Those sound-effects, usually short, can not play back inextenso.
    They lose some beginning part, the length of the part is not constant.
    i.e. Audio should start at MediaTime 0, but now they start at MediaTime x, x >= 0,
    not only that, sometimes, Audio process bar runs, but no sound heared.
    I do not know what is happening.
    So please help me, thanks a lot.
    The way that I use Players:
    initialize:
    create realized players from mp3 files
    prefetch them
    finalize:
    deallocate not null players
    then close them
    using:
    player.setMediaTime(new Time(0))
    then player.start()
    My Environment:
    Windows XP, java 1.4.10, JMF2.1.1, MP3-plugin1.0

    This is very strange, difficult to guess the cause... never had such an issue. Normally when the object to which the audio is attached disappears the audio stops. So in your case going to a next slide should stop the audio of the previous slide. Same with object audio.
    Do you have the different audio clips (one per slide) in the Library? Could you try to delete the audio on the slide and drag it again from the Library to see if you have the same result? And what happens when you attach the audio clip to an object on the slide (you can create a totally transparent rectangle with no stroke that will not be visible to attach the audio).

  • I have both the 250 gb high performance hard drive and a 1 ter byte hard drive.  What happens when the 250 gb hardrive is full?

    I have both the 250 gb high performance hard drive and a 1 ter byte hard drive.  What happens when the 250 gb hardrive is full? This on Imac desktop

    Never let a drive get more than 80% to 85% full.
    AND keep 50-100 GB of free space on a startup drive to allow proper function of virtual memory in all OS X versions from 10.5x to current versions.
    10.4x can get by with 20 GB of free space on the boot drive, but more is always better.
    I try and keep all boot drives between 50 and 60% of capacity.
    Beyond 60% and up to 90% capacity, seek times increase almost exponentially; performance suffers.

  • Lost my iPod, remotely locked it through iCloud. What happens when the battery goes out?

    Hello!
    I lost my Ipod, but managed to locate and lock it remotely through Find my iPod and iCloud. It was located once, but hasn't been located again in the last four days. I think the battery may have run out. What happens when the battery is charged and the iPod turned back on? Does the lock and everything else that can be controlled with Find my iPod still apply?
    Thank you!

    Yes, because when you remotely lock the iPod via Find my iPod, the lock code is set as the lock code that you would use to unlock the iPod if you used a passcode normally. As long as the iPod is still connected to your Apple ID, Find my iPod should work as log as the iPod is connected to wifi.

  • VDI3: what happens when the Primary VDI core fails?

    A potential customer asked me this and I did not really know how to answer the question ... sorry if this was asked before. So here we go:
    What happens when and if the Primary VDI core fails? Will the entire VDI3 setup go down? Will running sessions be lost? And how do you fix that?
    I found this page:
    http://wikis.sun.com/display/VDI3/MySQL+Cluster+Reconfiguration+Scenarios
    So I assume the "Non-VDI host ==> Primary Management Host" scenario is what would need to be done?
    http://wikis.sun.com/display/VDI3/MySQL+Cluster+Reconfiguration+Scenarios#MySQLClusterReconfigurationScenarios-NonVdiToPrimary
    If this is correct then this would answer the "how do you fix that?" part. OK then.
    But still I'd welcome if anyone could explain what exactly would happen when and if a Primary VDI core fails. The customer's opinion on this is that they are a "single point of failure" because the Primary VDI host is not redundant (as opposed to the 2 x Secondary VDI cores) ... So, is this assumption correct or not?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Assuming you have 3 VDI core hosts. One of them is the primary. And the primary goes down. So what happens then:
    * The underlying database is still running on the remaining hosts
    * All desktop sessions are still running on the remaining hosts
    * New session requests will be handled by the remaining hosts.
    * All desktops are still running on the virtualization hosts.
    So in essence, your VDI cluster is still healthy. The operation is just impacted in this way:
    * You can't add new VDI core hosts
    * You can't change the configuration of the Sun Ray server failover group
    * A failure of another VDI core host (data node) will result into a complete outage of the underlying database
    You should bring up the primary again as soon as possible in order to gain failover capabilities again.

    Hi Ketan Tank,
    Agree with Anthony, you can get the updates (KB2889923 & KB2889853) through Windows Update.
    The Skype for Business Client will already be activated as it is an update to an existing licensed product.
