• Cannot acess System Recovery Options, need help with the registry. Kindly help.

  Hi, sorry for the long question, but please help.

  To start off the coast, one day out of nowhere, my PC showed a "Login process initialization failed" error As a result, I am able to go pass the stage of "Starting Windows" but can't see the login screen. The way to remedy this problem is to restore windows. Now I'm able to reach recovery system (F8) Options, but it does not allow to login me as "admin". As soon as I select the language and keyboard input mode he asks me user name and password. The strange thing is there are two options for the username "admin" and the other is 'Office' (I did not have any accounts with these names). I read an article on the Dell (my pc manufacturer) website that said to log on as an administrator. But the Recovery Options does not give me access as 'admin' for any password I tried. I tried all the standard passwords and password for my account admin on PC (which has not been named admin btw). I also tried to leave it blank, but Recovery Options points out "the user name or password is incorrect" every time. Now, I tried to find a way to work around and reached here

  I quote an answer ' I ca, however, access the Recovery Console: . 
  I found a tweak on the Internet to change the registry for a password is not necessary to enter the Recovery Console. I proved that this tweak works as expected by switching between the registry by default DWORD definition ('0') and the twisted DWORD setting ('1').  When the DWORD value is set to '1' I can access all the functions of the Console recovery, but when the value of the default value of '0' without password allows access to the Recovery Console.  The tweak I used is as follows:

  The DEFAULT value"securitylevel" = DWORD: 00000001 '00000000' is (zero).  Note that all tests, as described above has been completed with the default setting for this registry entry.

  Please just help me to implement this tweak. How can I access registry without the need to log in.

  Sorry for these elaborate details, I didn't want to leave anything. Thanks in advance.

  The way to remedy this problem is to restore windows.

  It is correct. To call the system restore, follow these steps:

  1. Use your repair Windows CD to start the computer in Windows Repair Mode. You will not have a password.
  2. Use the system restore to solve your problem.
  3. Plan in advance and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key. On behalf of alternatives would easily get around your current situation.

  If you do not have a CD to repair Windows, ask a friend to burn you through the control panel / backup and restore.

• Turn system icons on or off via a script?

  Hello

  I'm currently building a CC4 network in a school.  The product of CC4 is a front end AD/GP, designed to be used by less experienced network administrators.  I'll save the ad and you link here: http://tinyurl.com/ch75853.

  Whatever this is effected in the CC4 console, under the hood is through Group Policy. As you can imagine that the group policies for the workstations are heavily locked down to prevent children from playing with the configuration of PC.  By default, built PCs made by RM software do not show the sound icon and (If portable) power icon in the notification area of the task bar. I looked into having enabled through Group Policy settings and register, but neither seem to show icons if the icons are not enabled in the first place. I went even as far to try to capture a file of the registry/written using the process without result monitor.

  So is my question, possible to turn on the sound icons and power using a VB or Powershell script?

  Hi Paul,.

  The question you posted would be better suited in the Script Forums. I would recommend posting your query in the Forums of Script.

• Satellite L500 - cannot turn off the WiFi and network icon changing itself

  Hello

  I have a Satellite L500-1GL (comes with Win 32-bit =) and since I installed the latest updates I can not disable the wireless function. When I use the shortcut key to activate or disable the indicator led is turning on and off, but the wireless feature is always turned on and even the icon which shows the network connection, itself changes without doing something with it.

  A few times it shows Red Cross (as she has no connection), but says: connected. When I use wireless connecton always displays the cable connection icon. most of the time, when he should have been showing the strength of the signal.

  This is reaally annoing. Please help me solve this problem.

  Hi danihun,

  > since I installed the latest updates I can not disable the wireless function.
  The updates you have installed exactly?

  In your case, I would try a system restore to an earlier point.

• Laptop screen turns off but the system never sleeps when closed.

  Hello!

  I have a laptop Alienware M14x and quite frequently when I close my laptop, the screen turns off but the system will not. When I reopen it, the screen stays off and the system seems still to go but no matter what I press on, the screen does not turn. To fix it, I just turn it off power then back on the power button. I know that my laptop is still running because the fans are still running and the lights on the front and on the keyboard are lit. I don't know if this is a problem common or not, but it's really annoying.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated! If there are other details that might help, do not hesitate to ask!

  Thank you!

  -S.

  Firstly I find a windows command can tell you if you have something that prevents the mode 'sleep'. Run as administrator command window and use the command: powercfg-query.

  If you have my problem and SRVNET is active, you will see this:

  SYSTEM:
  [DRIVER] \FileSystem\srvnet
  An active remote client recently sent requests for this machine.

  2. to add SRVNET to the exempt list, do the following at the command prompt (EXACTLY as shown below.)  DRIVER MUST be written in capital letters):

  powercfg - requestsoverride DRIVER '\FileSystem\srvnet' system Awaymode

  and for good measure (not sure if necessary but I did anyway)...
  
  powercfg - requestsoverride DRIVER "srvnet' system Awaymode

  3. once all is said and done, it should look like this after you run:

  powercfg - requestsoverride

  [DRIVER]
  \FileSystem\srvnet SYSTEM AWAYMODE
  srvnet SYSTEM AWAYMODE

  4 enjoy again the "sleep mode".
