Two WMI filters are true when one has to be false. Why?

Here are two WMI filters and only one should be true.
Select * from win32_PhysicalMemory where (FormFactor = 12)
Select * from win32_PhysicalMemory where (FormFactor != 12)
One of our Laptops (the only Asus we have) shows both of these are true.  That can not be because either FormFactor is or is not equal to 12.
We used PowerShell and determined FormFactor is indeed 12.
Any ideas?

> create a negative wmi filter that is true if the query is false.
That's right. But you can use a trick with GPP Environment and Item

  • Two profiles on same computer, when one has Firefox open and connected to the Internet, Firefox in the other profile does not connect

    automatic updater has updated Firefox on profile "Gordon" but on profile "Leslie" it still shows the earlier release. These two may be in conflict. It seems like there might be a Windows problem as the "Leslie" profile is using a different release...

    That is as it should be, you can only have one default browser and one default profile, If Firefox is already open you will use the profile that is in use, unless you open with -no-remote on the start
    for the second Firefox. Never use -no-remote on the default profile and never use the default profile with -no-remote and you will avoid problems.

  • Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.
    For compilations that aren't, select all tracks, Get Info, and on the option tab set Part of a Compilation to No. If it already says No tick the box alongside, then click OK.

  • GPO WMI filters are failing

    In Group Policy Manager when a WMI filter is created an error message is displayed:
    Either the namespace entered is not a valid namespace on the local computer or you do not have access to this namespace on this computer.  It is possible this is a valid namespace on the remote computer)s).  If you wish to use this namespace, press
    OK.  Press cancel to choose another namespace.
    I am signed on as the domain administrator.  This domain is Server 2012 R2.
    The namespace is the common root\cimv2.  When the browse button is pressed many namespaces are listed.  The error occurs no mater what namespace is selected.
    Even if the error message is ignored and the wmi filter is created.  For windows 8 clients, wmi filters fail even though they should pass.
    Select * from win32_operatingsystem where version like "6.%" will evaluate to false.
    This is happening on two Server 2012 R2 domains.
    Has anyone seen this?  Is there a fix?

    Hi dga_1,
    Before going further, would you please let me confirm something?
    Please run the PowerShell command (gwmi -namespace "root" -class "__Namespace" | Select Name) to check if the
    CIMV2 was listed.
    Meanwhile, please go to Event Viewer and navigate to: Applications and Services Logs-> Microsoft-> Windows->
    WMI-Activity. Then select Operational and check if you can find Event 5857 and 5858.
    Based on current situation, please refer to the following article and troubleshoot.
    WMI Troubleshooting
    WMI Troubleshooting
    Tips
    By the way, I find you want to apply the WMI filter in Windows 8 client. Please use the
    WQL Query Statement:
    select * from Win32_OperatingSystem where Version like "6.2%" and ProductType = "1"
    Then ignore this warning again. And use gpupdate /force to refresh group policy. Then run
    gpresult command to collect report and check if this WMI filter still can’t be applied.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why is DialogResult True when I set it to False?

    I have a ChildWindow displayed. I have a Button with a Click event. The Click even sets DialogResult = False. I have a Closing event listener on the ChildWindow.
    When the Closing event is entered, the sender is the ChildWindow and the Sender's DialogResult = TRUE!???
    DialogResult was already False, when the Click event happened.
    How the heck did it get to be TRUE?
    And nothing else sets DialogResult in my code as far as I could find.

    I put together a very simple MainPage:
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
    <Button Click="Button_Click">Show Child</Button>
    </Grid>
    and
    public MainPage()
    InitializeComponent();
    private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    ChildWindow1 cw = new ChildWindow1();
    cw.Closed += new EventHandler(cw_Closed);
    cw.Show();
    void cw_Closed(object sender, EventArgs e)
    ChildWindow1 cw = (ChildWindow1)sender;
    if (cw.DialogResult == true )
    ChildWindow1 is a regular child window
    It's generated with this code:
    public partial class ChildWindow1 : ChildWindow
    public ChildWindow1()
    InitializeComponent();
    private void OKButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    this.DialogResult = true;
    private void CancelButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    this.DialogResult = false;
    I put a breakpoint in the line
    if (cw.DialogResult == true )
    When I click OK I get true returned.
    When I click cancel I get false returned.
    Hope that helps.

  • What are resources that one has to use motion control in LabView?

    I am a newbie at Labview and I am trying to get a stepper motor to drive a shaft for one rotation (the shaft is attached to a bearing which will rotate a laser around a fixed object in the center). I am very limited in experience and I am wondering if ValueMotion is the way to go. Do you have to purchase the PC controller from NI to use value or flex motion? It would appear that using the intialization and setup VI's that ship with LV 6i would be the easiest and quickest route.
    What demos/programs for labview will be best in helping me in my efforts? I have yet to even select the controller or stepper motor for this application.

    Hello Graymalkin79...
    LabVIEW and an NI motion controller for your PC are an excellent combination for the application that you describe. To answer your specific questions...Yes the ValueMotion and FlexMotion VI's require a PC based controller from NI. For your application, either the 7334 stepper controller (ValueMotion) or the 7344 step/servo controller (FlexMotion) will do the trick. For straighforward stepper control as you describe in your application, ValueMotion is fine and the VI's for init, setup and operation should have you up and running quickly. FlexMotion provides a significant level of motion capability and overall system integration that may enhance your total application, but that's difficult to determine from your brief description.
    Most
    any Stepper Motor requires a power driver unit like the MID7602, and the selection of this component really depends on the motor that you choose and its associated torque and speed requirements in your system.
    Both ValueMotion and FlexMotion VI libraries provide motion demos that you can use interactively as well as VI's that you can integrate into your overall laser based LabVIEW application.

  • Combine all payers from two Credit Control Areas (CCA) under one CCA

    Short Description:
    My goal is to combine all payers, currently in two separate Credit Control Areas under the same Credit Control Area to leverage to combined credit control maintenance where the customer exists in both entities and minimize duplicate credit control area maintenance as the credit control logic should be the same in the current 2 distinct  CCAs.
    Scenario Description.
    Current SAP configuration setup:
    Company codes: CN01 (Shanghai) and HK01 (China)
    Control Areas: CN01 and HK01
    Sales Organizations: CN01 and HK01
    Customers: the same Customer Numbers in CN01 and HK01.
    There are many currently OPEN A/R.
    The goal: Combine all CN01 and HK01 payers under the same credit control area to leverage the combined credit control maintenance where the customer exists in both entities and minimize duplicate credit control area maintenance as the credit control logic should be the same in the current 2 distinct CN01 and HK01 Credit Control Area.
    I would appreciate a solution path  along with suggesting the re-indexing jobs that should be run to fix the open AR.

  • Creative Cloud price when one has graduated?

    If you've had Creative Cloud for student price one year, are you granted the second year pricing although you've graduated and no longer are studying? If not, how much more do you have to pay?

    Hi Marika,
    Well, Adobe also says a couple other things about student discount eligibility – like any documents dated within the past six months are accepted, or simply if you have a school-issued email address (like ending in ".edu")...
    So you may be OK to renew at the discounted price depending on how recently you are talking about.

  • If I have two iTunes accounts, and only want one to update my apps why does the other account keep opening?

    Here's the issue-I have two iTunes accounts, yet account #1 always comes up when I want to update my apps. This occurs even when account #2 is logged in and has been synced from desktop to iPad. Additionally,Account #2 is logged in on the iPad and yet account #1 prompt appears when updating. Interestingly account #2 functions normal for iTunes purchases but not apps purchases. Any suggestions?

    Apps will ALWAYS be tied to the account from which they were purchased.  You will always have to update the apps from the account from which they were purchased.

  • On Windows Server 2008, local account passwords are reset when the server is rebooted. Why, and how do we fix?

    We are running a commercial application on a Windows 2008 Server. After reboot, we cannot access the application because two services fail to start. The reason they fail to start is that the passwords to the local user accounts tied to those services have
    either been deleted or reset to a different value. In order to restart the application, we must reset the passwords of these two local accounts, then stop and restart all the application's services.  According to the application's maker, the accounts
    must be local.
    My colleague believes the passwords are being deleted or reset as a result of a global domain policy.  Is this likely?
    Assuming my colleague is correct, is there anything we can do locally to prevent these passwords from being deleted or reset when the server reboots?  If not, what is the most granular change we can ask our AD adminstrators to make to the policy, so
    that these local accounts are not touched at reboot.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    have you configured the accounts to have the permission "Log on as a service"? I have seen that this is not given to the account and therefore the service fails to start.
    Best regards

  • Effects and Filters are driving me nuts .

    I've just started using Final Cut Express ( current version) and have decided I could use a good tutorial. If anyone has a favorite I'd appreciate the tip. In the mean time , one thing has been driving me crazy. When I'm viewing a clip, in either the viewer or the canvas, and want to apply a filter, FCE doesn't seem to allow one to view the filter adjustment in real time. At least not all filter adjustments. Brightness/ Contrast and Gamma are two examples. When I select ethier of these from the Video Effects pull down menu, they are simply added to the filter tab of the viewer. To make an adjustment, I select the filter TAB, which closes the viewer, and I can then make adjustments. Unfortunately, I can't see the effect until I select the video TAB. Since every adjustment effects every othere adjustment, I want to see the change on the video as I adjust, without the need to TAB back and forth between Filters and Video. Please tell me I'm doing something wrong and that there is a simple solution. I want to keep both TABs open at the same time. Regards Herb

    You do know that all those tabs in the Viewer can be pulled off into their own separate windows, don't you? Just put the mouse cursor on a tab, hold down the mouse button, and drag the tab off to one side where it will stand alone in its own window. When you click that window closed, it will once again become a tab on the Viewer.
    Thus, for example, you can double-click a clip on the Timeline up into the Viewer window, and then drag the Motion tab off the Viewer window so that it becomes its own window. Then whatever you do in the Motion tab's window, you can watch to see how it affects the video in the Video tab.
    A big monitor, or two of them, are helpful when you get a bunch of these windows open.

  • How to route traffic across subnets when one NIC is a hyper-V virtual switch?

    Having a bit of a problem with a hyper-V environment which does not seem to route network traffic on two different subnets between each other.
    If it were a purely physical server with two NICs and a gateway set traffic would automatically be forwarded between the two different subnets.
    However when one of those NICs is a hyper-V virtual switch this simple routing no-longer seems to work and no traffic gets forwarded between subnets?
    Situation is:
    Hyper-V server with two NICs
    NIC 1 = 192.168.0/24 - main Internal company network.
    NIC 2 (hyper-V virtual switch.) = 192.168.1/24 - connects to ADSL internet router
    Virtualized Domain Controller.
    One or two virtualiszed NICs as necessary
    How then does traffic get routed between these two subnets?  If RRAS has to be configured to do this where is the best place to do it, on the hyper-V host or on the virtualized domain controller?
    Thanks,

    Hi ,
    You can create an internal virtual switch and configure an IP for it (I assume it is 192.168.1.2/24) .
    After you enable RRAS in hyper-v host  there will be two gateways for different subnets  .
    " NIC 2 (hyper-V virtual switch.) = 192.168.1/24 - connects to ADSL internet router "
    The problem is here ,if  these VMs need to access internet .
    So , these VMs can not configure their gateway same as the IP of internal virtual switch , you may set VM's gateway as the ADSL internet router's IP meanwhile add a static route entry for every VM .
    Please refer to the Syntax :
    route add -p 192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2
    Hope this helps
