Fresh install laptop, going lightweight

well, the linux installs have officially matched teh windows installs over here.  This is cool.
i have a P4 laptop, mostly legacy components 256mb memory, 30gb hard drive.  I just installed the latest 686 iso.  im going to give gnome a try.  i just completed the arch install on ext4, the first thing i ran is pacman -Syu gnome.   is there anything else i should know about right off the bat, either concerning  the fact that its a laptop as far as sytem configuration (i will be looking over this https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ma … filesystem and  , or any first suggestions about recommended DE components or anything that might make my experience ultra cool and blow away my KDE desktop box?

I am mildly astonished you have not found it yet !  It is eye candy to the extreme, but is amazingly easy on the resources.  It runs great with Xfce4.  This computer spends 80% of its time in that mode.

  • Fresh Install window goes black updating pac

    I am new to this, I installed the system configured my wired connection the wirless I still don know how. So I was trying to install gnome and following the directions the first thing is update pacman so I ran # pacman -Syu and in the middle of the download the screen just goes black.
    Has this happened to anyone?

    Are you sure that this isn't some sort of power saving mode?
    If I remember correctly, my monitor blacked out as well during first update because of inactivity.
    All you have to do is hit a key on your keyboard.
    And forgive me if you consider this stupid, I work with tech support

  • Lost Beats Audio Control Panel, Windows Experience Index and HP Power Manager on fresh install...

    HP Pavilion m6-1035dx, product B5S06UA#ABA
    Please help! I installed a 240gb SanDisk Extreme SSD and a fresh install of Win 7 home premium 64-bit OEM. I did not reinstall the factory OS and all that goes along with it. I have managed to reinstall all drivers (it seems) but am having the following problems: 1) I have installed IDT HD Audio Driver sp56953 but it does not provide the Beats Audio control panel, any idea how to get it? 2) The Windows Experience Index will not provide a performance evaluation, something in the system is providing it with an error message when it attempts to rate the system and it stops. 3) I have installed HP Power Manager sp57398 and can bring up the control panel but the changes I indicate will not stay applied, when I bring up Power Manager again it show that no selections are made. I knew this fresh install was going to provide headaches, please help if you can. Thanks.

    I suspect this may all be related to a common cause.
    When updating the windows experience index, what is the error message you receive?
    Has the video card driver been installed? It is necessary for the windows experience index to complete.
    Also, ensure the HP Software Framework is installed.  It is under the Software Solutions category.  
    You did a clean install of Windows 7. Has all the software and drivers for Windows 7 from HP been installed? Here is a link should you need it.

  • Hey i have a old powerbook G4 laptop and i was wondering where can i download the OS ( Mac OSX 10.5.8 Build ( 9L30 ) to do a fresh install my system is running really slow is there any place where i can down load this OS?

    Hey i have a old powerbook G4 laptop and i was wondering where can i download the OS ( Mac OSX 10.5.8 Build ( 9L30 ) to do a fresh install my system is running really slow is there any place where i can down load this OS?

    Hello,
    Unfortunately Apple do not offer a download for mac OS X 10.5.8. They will only provide updates available for download. ( Normally you would do so once the OS is installed)
    To do a fresh install of this software your going to need to buy a retail copy of the disk.
    There are some vendors who do still stock the media disk, but they can be expensive.
    Best of luck.

  • Xorg - Synaptics not working on fresh install.

    Ok... This one has me scratching my head major.
    After a certain snafu with e4rat I was forced to reinstall my system which I took the chance to do some redesign on the laptop system layout.
    Decided to go with a lightweight DE and the whole gammut.
    I get lxde installed, 'startx' Everything is hunky dorey, and I mean everything.  using the default synaptics conf that comes with xf86-input-synaptics. I get a whole bunch more software installed and reboot to try out the whol SLiM DM (which didn't work btw)
    So SLiM descides it's not going to load up lxde for me. type in username, password, hit enter and the screen flashes and comes back to SLiM... kill SLiM and startx... pointer doesn't work. reboot, startx...pointer doesn't work.

  • Fresh Install of iTunes and some Questions

    I just did a fresh install, set up home sharing, and did an iCloud match so my whole library is in the cloud.  I have my library file stored locally but my music files on my NAS.  Here are my questions:
    1.  I want to install iTunes on my wifes computer, set up iTunes match for her, set up shaing.  She will have a "shell" setup where notjing is stored as she is sharing with me and accessing the cloud.  Do I need to set up that computer under my user id even though she has her own?  I figure thats the only way to get her to iTunes match that I have?
    2.  How do I do this all?  Meaning, I will have a local library file for her but I need to point her laptop to the NAS with the files on them.  If I change her iTunes media file to that location on the NAS and check keep organized, will it screw up the files I have there?  I noticed when I did that on my PC it moved some fles around and I had to reassociate lost files to songs.  Took hurs.  Would iTunes have done that automatically for me somehow?  Should I not check the keep organized for her as she will not be adding music anyhow?  What is the harm either way?
    3.  How do I see my pictures on my ATV unit?  I thought I used to be able to but don't see an "app" on the ATV to do so, just photo stream which I do not want to do.  I thought I used to be able to access the pictures stored on my NAS?  Am I dreaming this or did it go away?  My NAS is an iTunes server and I swear I used to be able to access them from my ATV?    All I see on my ATV under my library is music, podcasts and movies. 
    4.  I have my NAS sharing (home sharing) and I can see it on my laptop with iTuenes installed.  When I click on it I see only music, no movies or anything else, why is that and is it something to do with home sharing?  But, like I said I can see thse movies on ATV under my library.  I can also see my playlists on the shared on my laptop but nothing is in them.  I think that may be becuase they were set up under another library and now that I hve a new library file, they don't carry over?  I don't see any of said playlists in the sttandard iTunes interface under playlists, just under the shared however like I said, no files in them.  Also, the share comes and goes as in sometimes I see it sometimes I don't however I am always able to access the NAS from iTunes.  Strange, may be network issues?
    5.  Along those same lines, sometimes the home share just up and dissapears from ATV.  Maybe a network issue?
    6.  Lastly, I just did my first backup/sync to my new laptop with the frsh install of iTunes on it.  It gave me some sort of message that I can only sync to one computer and do I want to overwrite or whatever?  I said no and it did nothing.  After that, I did a back-up however it seemed to go fast and I also did a sunc.  The sync was three steps, used to be like six and I did not notice any of my new apps being copied to it.  Something is wrong here but not sure what to do, ideas?
    Thanks in advance for any and all help.

    #4 - make sure you are sharing out all the items in your itunes library (music, movies, etc)
    you should be able to do that under preferences
    you may also want to check if it is pointing to the correct library
    #1 - home sharing should work on the LAN w/out the need for signing in; the shared libraries should appear under "shared" in the left sidebar of itunes
    think this may resolve the issues you have on #2 as well
    #2 - itunes doesnt seem like it's built for that, but if you have any experience, i'd like to hear it.  this seems why home sharing is the usually the best route to go and just have one instance of itunes managing the library
    but as long as the NAS or any media drives are shared out, connecting to it should not be a problem.  it's the writing to the itunes library that's the issue.  i haven't used Match so can't help there.
    depending on your OS, you can either ctrl-click or option-click on the itunes icon,
    which will also give you the option of selecting a library location upon launching itunes
    you can navigate to the location of the library file and point it to that.
    technically, you could do that but i believe the actual library has to be stored locally
    as long as you still have all the media, then you can just rebuild the library
    but for locally shared items, as in, all inside the home, i would leave icloud out of the equation
    just use itunes sharing and it should be fine

  • Fresh Install Windows 7 x64 IE 9 Flash Player Crash

    Greetings All,
    I am working on a major imaging prject for my organization.  I'm getting ready to create a new image for some of our machines so I was getting the reference computers ready.  I have noticed that when flash player is enabled in IE 9 it crashes the browser.  I get the "Internet Explorer has stopped working" error.  I can click the close program button, IE will try to launch the same page again and i get the error again with a bar on the bottome of the IE window stating "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab".  After a few rounds of this I get the "Internet Explorer has stopped trying to restore this website."  This is occuring on two different machines that I have been preping.
    Here are the details of what I have done to these machines:  (Dell E6420 and Dell E6320)
    1.  Installed Windows 7 x64 from install media (blanked the drive so fresh install)
    2.  Installed SEP 11.0.6200.754
    3.  Installed all drivers fresh off of Dell's website.
    4.  Installed Office 2010.
    5.  Ran and updated EVERYTHING from MICROSOFT update, SP1 and IE 9 included.
    6.  Went to Adobe.com and installed the latest Acrobat, Flash, and Shockwave Player from the links on the main page.
    7.  Rebooted and now anytime I go to any page with Flash objects I get the above error.
    Here are version:
    Windows 7 x64 SP1
    IE 9.0.8112.16421
    Shockwave Flash Object (Enabled in Manage Add-ons) 10.2.159.1
    As said these are two brand new machines, two fresh loads, two batches of software fresh from the web, and two machines having unacceptable problems when Flash is installed.  What's up here?
    Many Thanks for your time!

    I’m going to take a moment and do two things, bump the thread, and provide a short synopsis on where we stand on this issue.
    After much trial and error and the help of Chris I can say with relative certainty that this is an issue with compatibility between nVidia’s Optimus systems and Flash player’s hardware acceleration feature.  I don’t know if the issue is just IE9 or IE8.  I haven’t taken the time to try this on an Optimus system with IE 8 yet.  If someone out there is running one of the Optimus enabled laptops with IE8 and the latest flash installed I would love to hear some feed back.
    Ultimately IE8 vs. IE9 is an inconsequential issue.  Soon Microsoft will start pushing IE 9 as an important update meaning that the problem will need to be fixed or we’ll be faced with more users having the problem. 
    I have posted about the issue in the nVidia forums, Dell forums, and Adobe forums.  Please find the links to the threads below.  I don’t believe the issue to be unique to just the two Dell models that I am dealing with.  I have run across numerous complaints along this line from several different OEMs.

  • Satellite L655 - Sound not working on fresh install of Windows 7 Pro x64

    Howdy all,
    I purchased an L655-S5111 from Newegg that was on sale, put an SSD into it, and then installed a legitimate copy of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit I received from my current employer (I'm an IT guy). I've updated to the latest BIOS revision (1.70), and I've got all Windows updates installed, all drivers installed, including the correct Conexant HD Audio and ATI HDMI Audio drivers. Unfortunately, sound does not work. Sound worked briefly when I first installed Windows 7, then I muted it until I could get it set up with headphones. When I unmuted it, it had ceased to work.
    This laptop is less than 3 weeks old at this point, and I get no audio over headphones or speakers, although Windows clearly shows no issues with the drivers, they're the latest version, on a fresh install, and I can see the audio in the mixer playing. The microphone built-in to the laptop does pick up sound as well. I believe that this is most likely not an issue of physical interconnection, but more likely a software level issue, I'm just having trouble identifying where it is at.
    I also have no related error messages anywhere in the event logs.
    Message was edited by: ADMIN

    I have two problems with installing the recovery image:
    1) I didn't get a copy of the recovery media with the system
    2) The recovery media would install Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit which is what came with the laptop.
    Since I have legitimately licensed copies of Windows 7 Pro/Enterprise 64-bit, I would much rather install that. Since I used the drivers and software from the Toshiba website for this particular model, it should be working. There should be no functional difference between the recovery media and a fresh Windows install from the Microsoft-provided Windows media and Toshiba provided drivers from their website.
    As you can see in the sysinfo (I'm assuming Keany the respondent is the admin that approved my post and edited it, thus had access to the data which was removed) I have all the Toshiba software and drivers installed, identically to if this was the recovery image, I just have it on a different edition of Windows 7.
    I'm open to any other suggestions, but unfortunately it is not possible to do the above.

  • Why is Mavericks running so slowly after a fresh install on my Macbook Pro?

    I have a 13-inch, Early 2011 Macbook Pro.
    Towards the end of 2013 Mountain Lion had been running very sluggishly, and I was getting the spinning beachball of death all the time, so I decided to do a fresh install of Mavericks. I wiped my whole HD using disk utility and installed Mavericks from a flash drive.
    I then installed Microsoft Office 2011 from the original DVD and set up Mac Mail to work with my Gmail account etc. All very standard. I also installed X-Code and various other things related to my work, but nothing crazy. My HD is only half-full (I have 141 GB of free space).
    Despite this, everything is running really sluggishly (especially when MS Office programs are open) and I have to watch the beachball of death spin for about 10 seconds every minute.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait about a minute. Then paste some other text, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking  anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter
    exec sh
    and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for your password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator rights.
    The test may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. There wiil be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress until it's done. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
    8. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." That's because the forum software falsely identifies something in the post as a violation of the terms of use. If that happens, please post the results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Macbook pro i7 - Mid 2010 - Lion 10.7.2 fresh install CRASHES

    Hello MacHeads like my self,
    I have a macbook pro - mid 2010 (i7, 8gb ram), I had a major disk corruption a few days ago (WD 750gb 7200rpm), bunch of bad sectors and I belive it took place becouse I had the crazy black screen failiur going on for a few weeks until apple released the update to fix that, but I had to hard reset the macbook several times and that could have caused the bad sectors...
    Anyhow, I pulled the drive out, put a new one in, a 500gb 5400rpm made by Segate, fresh install of teh LION, made all of the available updates... it was running fine until yesterday when I got the the black screen again... I could not belive it... so I hard reste it again... today, the macbook crashed on it's own as I was writing a message using skype, I thought it was the black screen again (video failiur) but no, it actualy restarted on it's own.
    Any ideas?
    Here is the crash report below if someone can read this:

  • How can i gain access to my data on a Time Capsule after a fresh install of Mavericks? I can't access any backups through Time Machine... They appear purple/transparent, and I can't even select them to view their contents. PLEASE HELP!!!

    So, I've got several thousand photos, and a decent amount of videos of my daughter, along with a lot of stuff for work stored on my Time Capsule, and now I can't access any of it. I did a fresh install of Mavericks on my MacBook Pro last week sometime, and haven't been able to figure out how to get my files back. Please Help!!! My daughter is 2 and a half, and every picture/video I have of her is locked on this thing. I was planning on making some photo/video projects fo my wife for Christmas, and now I'm definitely not going to be able to pull it off. Her birthday is at the end of January, though, so if I could have it by then, that would rule!
    Basically, the bar on the right of the screen has some gray dates, which I can access (all backups after the Mavericks install), and purple dates that go all the way back to March (when I originally purchased and began using the TC) which deny me access/viewing. It's possible that I created a slightly different user name when I reset my MacBook, which I guess is most likely the cause, but I have no idea what to do now to correct it. Thanks for taking the time!

    Mavericks does really nasty stuff..
    Try manually mounting the sparsebundle and extract the files you want.
    Yet another Pondini reference. http://pondini.org/TM/15.html
    We have avoided Mavericks you see knowing that it would cause these kinds of issues..
    You never ever load a new OS without doing a disk image beforehand.. TM is not reliable enough or trustworthy to be depended on.
    If none of the above work..
    I would get a USB drive on the computer and install Mountain Lion or whatever OS you had before you unfortunately upgraded to Mavericks.. Then use TM from that decent installation but mount the sparsebundle and choose the backup from a date well before mavericks was installed.
    Once you have extracted the files.. or even done a full restore you might be able to extract the files you want.

  • Server 2012 fresh install - Running at a crawl. Possible hardware issue?

    Hello All,
    I have recently purchased a used server and just fresh installed Server 2012 to evaluate it, and I am experiencing a issue with it running very slow.   So far nothing has been setup or installed besides the OS, hard drives, and a external usb drive,
    so it is pushing me to believe my issue is hardware related.
    First let me describe the issue more.   Basically everything is slow to load.  Control panel takes 20 seconds...  trying to load disk management and other snap in from administrative tools all take 15-20secs+ and first come up in
    a greyed out window or the administrative tools window goes to "Not Responding" for a few seconds then loads it.
    I do not think it is due to the fact the server is used with slightly dated hardware as it has Dual Quad-Core 2.66 Xeons & 16gb ECC Ram, so I was thinking their must be a bad piece of hardware in there?  Maybe bad ram?
    Anyway I plan to start hardware diagnostics, but I just wanted to see if anyone had any insight or suggestions for me.  And to verify if this sounds like a hardware issue to you as well.
    Thanks!

    Windows 2008 R2 that is on top of the list of supported operating systems. It is a good choice for some testing with M350 G5. Then you can test the in-place upgrade and application compatibility test will tell you, which component makes the problem.
    If for example onboard NIC is not compatible, then you can use another NIC card that is compatible. When it is RAID controller (very often), then either use another RAID or single HDD (it is test only, not for production environment).
    You can explore the virtualization path. Get know if appropriate hypervisor from VMvare is compatible with this hardware is also compatible with Windows Server 2012 R2. VMware forum may answer your question on virtualization. Working in virtual environment
    will provide some experience too.
    Majority of current desktop equipment allows you for testing Windows Server 2012 R2. There are some exceptions, namely "high end game machines" that make you to find remedy for drivers (example
    MAXIMUS IV GENE-Z - here is a need to adapt inf file for NIC, because of there is low end NIC on motherboard.)
    For low performance issues use native tools like Performace Monitor and diagnostics - Event logs and Device Manager. For detailed analysis consider Sysinternals tools.

  • Fresh install keybinds stop responding [solved]

    Hi there,
    I've recently been having some issues with Arch. I did a fresh install because I'm running on a chromebook and need as much space as possible only have a 14GB SSD at present until I get round to upgrading it.
    I previously installed Arch (i386) with no such issues, but I've recently switched to i3 WM and x86_64 using this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ch … tion_media. Last week I also installed a custom chrome patch
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ch … .27_Script and everything was working fine with this. I did a fresh installion of Arch about an hour ago and I'm mentioning this because it allowed me to install Arch 64bit directly from the dual ISO without having to modify the ISO itself so I'm not sure if that's the issue considering the 32bit installation worked from the same ISO.
    Now I have some strange issues. Keybinds work fine when I boot up but when I open urxvt it seems to stop all my binds working. Similarly the same issue happens when I run dmenu and open chrome. Sometimes I can open multiple instances of the aforementioned before it stops working. The mouse icon changes as if it's trying to load something, but nothing opens and absolutely no binds work.
    I've tried other WM's and get the same issues with urxvt and dmenu.
    I have searched google but can't seem to find any related issues so I'm at a loss as to where to begin.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    It seems that the use of dmenu causes things to hang. I'll reboot and wait a few minutes and see if it automatically does it.
    I have not modified any files since installation except enabling wicd and slim with systemctl and the modifications to .xinitrc.
    Thanks for the information. I'll bear that in mind.
    Edit:
    So I rebooted and left the system for five minutes. After that I ran dmenu using alt+d (as defined in i3 config). Dmenu would not open and changed the mousekey to the loading icon and no other bindings would work again.
    So I believe that the issue is definitely with dmenu.
    Edit 2:
    So a little bit more information on dmenu. I have installed it with every installation. My system is 64bit and I have enabled multilib. I installed it through pacman.
    I'm going to disable multilib and re-install.
    Edit 3:
    Same issue. Actually seems worse now.
    Edit 4:
    I'm wondering if it could be due to this section of .i3/config?
    # start dmenu (a program launcher)
    bindsym $mod+d exec dmenu_run
    # There also is the (new) i3-dmenu-desktop which only displays applications
    # shipping a .desktop file. It is a wrapper around dmenu, so you need that
    # installed.
    # bindsym $mod+d exec --no-startup-id i3-dmenu-desktop
    Edit 5:
    Okay so after some testing it seems to be i3. I've re-installed, using the i3-git package from AUR. I'm installing Yeganesh and I'll see now how this plays out.

  • Fresh install of Server 2012 R2 causes inaccessible boot device on first Reboot

    Hello Everyone, 
    Doing a fresh install of Windows Server 2012 R2 on a SuperMicro X9DRT-HF+ motherboard based server. The server is using iSCSI boot, setup detects the iSCSI disk and copies its files, finishes the "Getting files ready for installation" "Installing
    Updates" phase, reboots, takes a while and eventually gives a Blue screen with Inaccessible Boot Device error. I have tried some changing options in the BIOS, I've had Nimble (storage array) support on the phone and they confirmed the setup is correct
    but for some reason after the first reboot Windows can no longer find its install files and gives a BSOD.
    Additional Information: 
    Server: SuperMicro X9DRT-HF+ (no internal disk)
    Storage: iSCSI disk provided from Nimble CS220 Array
    Windows 2008 R2 Server installation will proceed without any problems.
    I checked the \Windows\Panther\Setupact.log / CBS.log file and there doesn't seem to be anything indicating a problem. 
    I have googled a number of times to find solutions but most articles reference a similar problem after installing a particular KB (which shouldn't be the case here). Need some help :) 

    Hey Tim,
    Thanks for your reply, since the start of this post I have also installed MDT to try a different approach to installing the OS. Using MDT I have injected the Intel I350 driver into the installation so it should be restarting with the driver loaded.
    The odd thing is that when the server reboots the Windows startup screen loads for about 4 minutes before it gives the INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE error. This would indicate to me that it sees the disk and tries to boot from it but then something goes wrong.
    Other than the \Windows\Panther location is there another place I should be looking for log files during this part of the Windows install? I have reviewed all the locations listed under the TechNet library article "hh824819" (I can't post
    a link to the article but a google search brings it up) but I can't seem to find a log of when the server crashes what it is doing at that point.

It would stall at synching. I read somewhere to delete podcasts which I did which I think worked itunes doesn't see the phone. Windows does and I can see and transfer photos and movies but no itunes syncing.
    thanks guys for the help,
