Free antivirus: http://www.microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/ Assuming, of course, that your windows copy passes tha activation check (in other words, isn't pirated) Good product, lousy scan engine, high-jacks your browser, and will not uninstall completely unless you play registry administrator.. I would stand clear on this.. Further it has its own adware in it, which will record your searches.. Its included in 2008 server... and took me 3 hours to remove.. |

Is there any free regitsry repair programs? Yes, A few actually... the best is "if you can find it" Diskkeeper 2007 trial edition It will clean up the registry defrag, and increase the MFT file which is what causes most machines to get slow.. 2k8 and 2k9 did away with this feature. Ccleaner will also clean out the registry, temp files, and any uninstallers from old Updates.. Works great can be found here; www.ccleaner.com Win Cleanup It is a cleanup utility that will clean up the installers that may be having issues.. "like when you do add remove programs and try to remove something that will not uninstall" www.technet.com Little Registry Cleaner 1.3.3 is a free open source cleaner that will do the same as Ccleaner without the temp file removal.. I would recommend using ccleaner.. |

Good luck, Test is tough if you have done work with Microsoft products in the past, its easy if you haven't.. Also take what you learn from the books as a foundation, as most of what they teach doesn't work and requires some additional tweaking that isn't included in the books.. which is why if you have worked with the products the tests suck.. Anyway good luck, MCSE 2000 CCNA 2000 A+ Dell Hardware Certified HP Hardware Certified |

I have a question for you Ready.
I've been a full time tech now for seven years but don't have certifications. I work with servers day in and day out and I'm the one my company sends to do most of the networking jobs. What I'm getting at is that I know my stuff. Do you see any advantage for me to spend the time and resources to get certifications? I have studied for A+ and network+ but the tests are expensive & I have to drive two and a half hours to take each one. Plus, I don't think the CompTIA certs are really worth much. What certifications do you think are worth looking into? I've heard it said that the ComTIA gets your foot in the door, the Microsoft ones will land you a job, and Cisco is where the money's at. What do you think about that statement? Which Microsoft certs do you think are relevant in today's job market? Thanks in advance. |

What do you think about that statement? Which Microsoft certs do you think are relevant in today's job market? Thanks in advance. Well honestly, i have been their... I have been a senior admin now for over 10 years... of which i have had my MCSE for the past 9, also my CCNA for 9. They are expensive.. I have renewed my MCSE, but my CCNA is expired, as it is more expensive then it was worth to me. I handle mostly server side issues anyway, and honestly the Cisco's are very reliable and thus i rarely touch them. Certs, well as i stated before, the more you work with something the harder the certs are, just because you know what Microsoft is slinging is pure ****... text book style stuff that never works the way they want you to do it.. Right now i see a huge influx of jobs that are MCA (Microsoft Certified Architect) or MCM (Microsoft Certified Master) MCA's in NYC make anywhere (in today's market)120K-200K per year. MCM's in NYC make in the range of 100K-150K per year. Cisco certified engineers also make bank, but the Cisco cert's are real expensive, and require renewals yearly, which gets a little nutts... Microsoft certifications are really not that expensive when you take into consideration that most of the certs will last, have relevance for over 10 years, as their are still NT4 and 2k systems out their... MCSE is expired as of end of life 2k3 server. MCSE, was the cert for NT systems... MCITP is the cert for 2k8 server, which is built on Vista, and not an NT system. I am working toward my MCM right now, FYI it is now a Hyper-V lab and not a book test... Oh YAY! |

I've talked to my instructor today regarding to MCITP. He told me not to worry about it too much because its still new. He will be taking a test for it within a couple of months because its a must have kind of deal. I haven't messed with 2k8 servers yet because learning 2k3 servers is still frying my brains. I mean I know how to assign users, doing all of the crazy junk through the network like file sharing and all but the confusing part is the permission portion relating to the policies. He said that the last policy will be the first one to act just like if you shut off control panel from a policy, any users who are member of that policy will also get turned off right? Unless you individually go into a specific user account and turn them on while the policy is still off? I don't know if I'm making any sense.

Unless you individually go into a specific user account and turn them on while the policy is still off? I don't know if I'm making any sense. Really depends on the roles... If it is active directory, then you can disable users their, by editing the user, or the group of users... If it is just a server, and each server is not bound by a domain, then you can use a slew of different ways to disable users... Group policy, Net user, control panel, right click on my computer-choose manage-right click the user-disable.. This is why the tests can suck, because of all of the different ways each thing can be done, but their is only one correct answer. 2008 server is not all that different from 2k or 2k3, their are more features, but the core commands all work as they did in 2k3. I took the first test of the MCITP, which was test number 83-640 it was hard, i took it twice, as when i took it their were no books available for the new test. The test itself was easy, the Hyper-V image sucked because they will fail you if you don't use the GUI for everything, i have been working since NT4 and use Dos for most everything. |

Honestly after heavy testing i still think XP is much better then Vista or windows 7. Windows XP will run on anything, Windows 7 will not.. Windows Vista has issues with drivers, which windows 7 also has... so in turn, XP is still my best OS from Microsoft.. The server version 2k8 is actually better then 7 and runs on anything.. to bad Microsoft wont wake up.. I've been running Windows 7 for awhile now with no problems. I had absolutely no driver issues and the only drivers I had to download were the newest nVidia drivers. What driver issues have you run into? The computers that Windows 7 won't run on are very old. You can get a computer that will run Windows 7 for $52.99 + the cost of a gig stick of DDR RAM. And that's talking about meeting the "minimum requirements". I have a friend who says it runs better than XP on every machine he owns from a 512 meg RAM P3 to his laptops to his gaming system. Can you be more specific on the problems you have run into? |

And that's talking about meeting the "minimum requirements". I have a friend who says it runs better than XP on every machine he owns from a 512 meg RAM P3 to his laptops to his gaming system. Can you be more specific on the problems you have run into? Driver issues; 1. Realteck HD audio will not work correctly 2. Intel X1300 video drivers will not work correctly 3. HP Printer 4si 2k,XP,vista drivers will not work 4. Cisco VPN software 5. A variety of Network protocol tools needed for work 6. A variety of Microsoft Sysinternal tools needed for work, which Microsoft for windows 7 requires you to pay for, that on XP were free. Machine's 1. Core2Duo 2.0GHZ, Memory 3gb DDR2, SATA 7200RPM 160gb Hard drive (Laptop) 2. P3 600Mhz, Memory 256mb PC133, Scsi 60gb Hard drive (server) 3. Dual AMD Phenom 2 Quad core 3.0GHZ, 16GB DDR3 dual channel, 6 1TB SAS Drives at 7200RPM each Hard drive (Raid 5) (Server/desktop) 4. A slew of other P4 based test machines. (Desktops) Windows 7; Installed on all machines, each machine had different issues, Worked good in the VM image, but once i installed it on a physical machine it turned into crap. machine 1. Device driver issues machine 2. Scsi driver issues, could not install Machine 3. Ran great, but that machine was 5grand... machine 4. Various device driver issues, and slow boot times, all machines have 1gb of memory minimum. Your friend; It sounds like your friend is basing this on a machine that had XP installed for a long time, and then went to a fresh install of 7. If he wipes two identical machines, then installs one with Xp, and the Other with 7. he will see that the XP machine is faster. Hell if he installs Ubuntu on a third he will see Linux embarrass Microsoft all together. (Agree Linux is not a good Desktop OS for most, but it is wonderful, i have been using it since windows 7 came out, and it is much faster) |

(Agree Linux is not a good Desktop OS for most, but it is wonderful, i have been using it since windows 7 came out, and it is much faster) I have no idea why you are having so many issues. I know a great many people at work who all use Windows 7 without complaint. My friend is a network administrator, he reinstalls his OS every year on every machine he has at home to keep them running good. In a side by side comparison of XP vs Vista vs Windows 7, Windows 7 was faster in almost every category than XP and when XP was faster, it was only slightly faster. http://www.techradar.com/news/software/operating-systems/windows-compared-windows-7-vs-vista-vs-xp-615167?artc_pg=8 I'm just going to leave it at this. I would suggest that anyone who is thinking about upgrading to Windows 7 do so. If you are worried about if Windows 7 will work on your computer, run the Windows 7 Upgrade adviser. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=1b544e90-7659-4bd9-9e51-2497c146af15&displayLang=en |
