A bunch of new parts came in... To upgrade my old rig. I promptly got "BOOTMGR is missing" halfway though installing win7 on the new SSD and my old HDD mysteriously unable to boot. Firing the drive up shows Windows7 twice and selecting either blue screens for a second and instantly restarts. This is gonna be a fun night. Currently running startup repair. Else gonna try removing the SSD from bios boot and try and get back into the old HDD. the best part? My win7 disc isn't bootable somehow. Okay it boots into the old install and a new install... On the wrong disc. Yet it shows windows installed on the SSD. What the hell. Got into recovery environment. bootrec /fixmbr does fuckall. It also identifies 0 Windows installations. Now it boots but only when I boot from the old drive - but lets me access the new install on the new drive

Someone just called for help getting connected to the "colorful" printer.  I don't know why but this makes this request less annoying than it would otherwise be (not very).

User not on wifi (which is a separate vlan), printer is working properly (I/others in the office can print), user can connect to the printer's home page by ip, not marked as use offline, restarting did fuckall. I'm kind of out of ideas. Re-installing the printer is going to be my next move.

A bunch of water came in yesterday. This is the fourth time in ten years that we've been half a metre away from losing our entire server room to the upstairs swimming pool. It's the second since last year when we agreed to a ten-year lease extension due to assurances from building management that they've put a retaining basin underneath the pool and the leaks were solved. Entire sections of the ceiling have been removed, and the chlorine smell finally seems to be subsiding.

Collateral Damage posted:You have your bootloader on the wrong drive, or the wrong drive selected as your boot drive in BIOS. I did the same thing with my rig when I went from XP to 7. Likely the former. Booting from the SSD (my bios lets me F8 to select a decide to force boot) gives me "BOOTMGR not found". Booting from the HDD gives a choice of two Win7, the old and new install. Currently I'm juggling drive letters so the system can have C: back and my old data HDD gets D:... I'll google how to move the boot loader. Thanks! E: changed drive letter in registry since old drive wouldn't let C: go and new drive won't change whilst Windows is up. This breaks logging in though which I ought to have seen coming.

When I worked at the continuous caster of a steel mill, there were giant water tanks on the top of the inner roof. This was so that if all power was lost, we could still cool everything off. The server room was on floor 3, the top floor with mgmt was 4, and on the inner roof of that were the tanks. The tanks had a massive leak once, the sys admin told me the story that he saw water leaking in and was like "oh poo poo, the roof must be leaking! Better tell the boss" As he was walking upstairs it dawned on him, hey, wait a minute.... if its getting to my floor then... Looks through the window and the 4th floor has like a foot of water lol. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_casting

Got a voicemail from someone saying they can't log in, they had the problem earlier and it wasn't fixed and they haven't been able to do their job. Checked out the old ticket, it was stated she closed and reopened outlook and it worked. Checked her account and wasn't locked out and didn't have any recent bad password attempts so gave her a call. She says she types in her username, her password auto populates and when she hits log in it doesn't work. Told her to delete the auto populated password and type in her password - says it still doesn't work. Connected to the computer, saw what it was and said "I think you typed your username wrong..." Yup.. she did. She must have been trying for awhile trying to get in with the wrong username. Never thought I would get one of these

Vice versa for standard drives, some vendors had that issue (Dell and HP come to mind) where setting a standard HDD to AHCI made it blue screen, had to be put to "Compatible" or "Legacy" I think.

I ran into an issue similar when I went from my first SSD setup(a pair of 60GB in RAID) to a single larger drive. I had to go into the registry and enable both RAID and AHCI support for the OS, then change the BIOS to AHCI(all this after cloning the drive over) or it would blue screen on boot.

Word (2013) is starting all documents with the wrong font selected. The correct font is set as default font in the Normal.dotm template and gets restored if you switch to the Normal style. But it isn't selected when you start a new document.

When I "New" with the Normal template, the font is wrong. Removing Normal.dotm from my user profile doesn't affect it. Several but not all people in the org have the issue. It's probably some add-in.

So a ticket came in. One of our larger clients servers keep on going offline. Turns out they did an office move but forgot to setup power and water. They are running everything off of generators Edit: Looks like I can view the forum at work but not post due to some weird blocking by fortigate. Apparently half of SA is adult content. blackswordca fucked around with this message at 17:03 on Nov 3, 2015 |

Just did a contract job for an out of state MSP. They sent RAM to the client for me to install on two workstations. I do the install, no issues, have the client login to the workstation, 32-bit windows. The workstations already had 4gb of RAM, and the upgrade brought them up to 8gb each. Total waste of time, but I still get paid.

You have it documented that the desktop is not the proper place to store things right? I mean it's the CEO so it's not worth too much, but at least you can go well I told you so and its in writing. I have pushed everyone to use network drives here, and they are mostly used, a few stray documents in "My documents" but the design department is a special snowflake because of file size. They were given external drives for backup and everything is great, accept they were using them as storage instead and one died. The CEO went out and bought everyone some consumer grade USB drive with software to auto backup the computer and dumped it on ITs desk because it worked great for his wife. I setup the drives because why not, but it was a huge waste of money, and we have a perfectly good backup. He just wants to be sure we don't lose anything even if they don't save things to the correct location. Great plan and all I guess, but this could have been done cheaper with redirects and a dedicated NAS.

The problem is most likely the CEO wants to work on poo poo offsite and doesn't want to VPN in to access documents. There are various solutions for this though, with time and money.
