  • Why my computer displays a restore point (dated today ' hui), even when I click on show other points of restoration?

    I'm trying to restore my computer to a previous point, because it's strange (temporary is assigned to some users and the computer itself freezing). I did it before on an older computer which ran on XP. But my current Windows 7 system gives me only a restore option, which is not because it has been established today. I thought that the restore points were set automatically - is this not the case?

    To save space, Windows will only keep the most recent points created successfully.  You can increase the storage space reserved for them to increase the stored number.  Always by default, he is very aggressive and will remove older, or when a change is made that invalidates a point.

  • Having problems setting a timeout of session for wireless LANs

    I'm setting up a WISN with software version 4.2.62.0.

    So that the implementation of wireless local networks, I'm putting in place a session of 12 hours (43200 seconds) time-out value on the tab 'Advanced' edict WLAN.

    However, when I hit 'Apply' and go back in the same edition of WLAN, the timeout value back to 0.

    I tried to check "Allow AAA override" but that has not solved the problem.

    Anyone know how to get around this problem or resolve?

    Thank you.

    Try putting in the CLI and check it took... could be a problem with the code of 4.2, since it's fairly new :)

  • Having problems setting up a 5.5 vCenter Server VM in a domain configuration...

    I'm trying to implement a vCenter Server VM (new installation, no upgrade) without an Active Directory domain that is available.  I was able to do this successfully in the past with 5.0 and 5.1, but now with 5.5 I have problems.

    Installing SSO works fine and displays warnings expected that the server is not on a domain and the certificate will be bound to the INVESTIGATION period.

    When I then try to run Setup from the inventory Service, it fails when you try to connect to the SSO:

    "Could not connect to vCenter Single Sign On.  Make sure that the Search Service URL points correctly to the vCenter Single Sign On the instance that you installed.  If vCenter Single Sign-On is installed with an IP address, make sure that the IP address is specified in the URL.

    5.0 and 5.1, in order to get this installation runs correctly, I would like to enter the IP address in the URL (as it says in the error), and he'd be fine.  So the address provided for the Research Service URL is https://< ip_address >: 7444/lookupservice/sdk

    I tried several variants for the fields of FULL domain name and URL of the Service search without success.

    Can someone confirm a successful for 5.5 off-field installation?  And if so, try to direct me in the right direction?

    I end up doing work, it turned out to be an order of operations issue.

    I tried to install SSO, then service inventory, then Web Service, then vcenter Server.  And on a domain, this order actually worked well.  For some reason any, when not on a domain, they must go SSO-> Web Service-> Service-> vCenter Server inventory (this command works in both scenarios, just to be clear).

    Hello
     
    You can use the following methods that can help you solve your problem:
     
    Method 1: Put the computer in safe mode and see if the problem persists:
    Method 2: I recommend you perform the clean boot.
     
    Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

  • Problem setting transition duration first pro cs4. Is this a bug?

    Hello world

    I have made a project of first pro cs4 and I'm having problems setting the duration of transitions between clips. I have my default transion set to cross dissolve them and 15 frames in length. When I try to lengthen, it seems that first makes two transitions in instead of a longer one. So, if for example I got a clip with a dip to black when I extend more than 15 default images to say 30 images I get two separate transitions one after the other instead of a long. I know it's difficult to understand so I downloaded the video on youtube. If fast forward you to the minute 01:20, you will see the latest bland given away with a dip to black transition and the you'll be right flash a bit after the last light disappears. I hope someone can help me solve this problem, as I'm completaly lost. Thank you :-)

    Work waaay too hard at this, dude.  Just use the default chained.  It gives you good fade to the top using all 24 images, no adjustment necessary.

    This phenomenon was linked to your video driver (atikmpag.sys) /DirectX.  I would completely remove the current driver and install the latest driver available.
