• Office locks upwards and not Windows Server 2008 R2 remote let me reconnect

  I was having problems connecting to a remote system with RDP.  The server is operational for several years and is one of the 4 servers identical servers located on the same site.  Recently, one of the other servers crashed I was remoting in a long time so I had to start using this RDP server in.  Once our on-site personnel COMPUTER redirected to this NAT. port forwarding by server, I was able to connect remotely to make some changes, including the addition of a role as a remote access server VPN using the Routing and remote access Server Setup Wizard and removing the component of protection against threats Symantec Endpoint Protection network so that I can use and configure the Windows Firewall.

  While working through the Routing and remote access Server Setup Wizard, my locked up and disconnected RDP session.  I was able to reconnect once on-site staff completed the wizard and restart the computer, but once I reconnected it, after a minute or 2 I was even once disconnected and could reconnect not until the server has been restarted.  I presume that add the VPN role affected my RDP access and decided to remove the VPN server role.

  Now, I can't RDP on the server unless it is freshly reset, and even then it only allows me to stay connected for a few minutes before the connection is lost and I can't reconnect again until the server is restarted.  A vicious circle; power of connection after restart, only to have the connection dropped and requires a restart to reconnect again.

  This server also hosts a database that client systems are able to access for a short period of time after before restarting their connection drops.

  I quadruple checked the inbound Windows Firewall rules, uninstalled application anti-virus completely, same goes for as much as duty get their request for removal to ensure each piece of it has been removed, and I always have the same question.

  The whole issue started when I tried to add the VPN role.  I can't uninstall and then reinstall the anti-virus repeatedly has not helped either, but as it is right now, I have a server who, shortly after the restart, is unable to communicate. not with the internet, not on the local network, not remotely.   On-site staff are trying their best to follow my troubleshooting over the phone, but he arrived at a point where I will have to find out what's wrong and provide an easy solution to remote, or make a trip to halfway around the world to try to figure it out myself (which would be EXTREMELY difficult/close to impossible right now).

  Quesitons:

  (1) why would I be able to connect to remote after the reboot and disconnected then shortly after? (Service/application causing the problem didn't start until shortly after a restart?)

  (2) why is it not only kill remote access, but access LAN and internet on the server?

  (3) what else can be verified to help diagnose and fix the problem?

  I did a lot of research on the web but haven't found identical to mine problems.  Is this a new problem or a bug?  I saw information about uninstalling a patch and a seen a fix for the problems of the RDP, but who wouldn't even help LAN and access on the internet server.  This server ran local client local RDP, access to the database access and could have access to the internet for the years leading up to the recent changes and issues.

  Edit: The pro I'm remote on the server is a system Win 7 Pro, and the database of customers are also Win 7 Pro.

  Correction of the problem.  Turns everything by making the configuration for VPN, incorrect information has been entered in the network link, causing the network to the bomb once VPN service started.

  There are several LAN ports on the server, and one of them was selected incorrectly and configured with the incorrect gateway IP address during configuration of the VPN server.  Once the misconfigured for the LAN port TCP/IP parameters have been removed, all was good again.

• Server 2008 R2 installation will not configure on DV7 series laptop

  I installed the Server 2008 R2 on a laptop DV7-7012nr. I upgraded the memory up to 16 GB. I deleted all the partitions, and then divide the hard drive into 2 partitions. Partition 1 is 7 442 Go Windows, Partition 2 is 256 GB server.

  When I install, windows server 2008, in dual boot, it will not complete the configuration for the material. This leaves me the choice either reinstall Windows server 2008 and to come back to the same error or return to windows 7.

  How can I get a dual boot for a full installation of Windows server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition or Standard on my DV7-7012nr laptop?

  After spending 5 days with installing Server 2008 R2 64-bit on this laptop, I contacted the HP Support. Technical support HP and after 4 hours and 7 different technicians, I was informed that they can not help me with the installation of Server 2008 on this laptop. I know it's possible, and I installed Server 08 several times that I can remember. I'll have to this laptop with the conclusion that although HP says that it will work, it will not return.

  Summary; Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit Standard or enterprise will not be installed on the HP Pavilion dv7-7012nr laptop.

• Pavilion p6110t CTO Desktop: drivers for Windows Server 2008 and HARD drive problems

  Recently, I had the hard drive with my OS failure. After replacing the hard drive and reinstall windows server 2008, I seem to have encountered some problems with drivers.  After insalling Windows, I had 3 items in my device manager that not have installed correctly. I could get the driver for the LAN port to work, but I did not get the driver to "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and "SM Bus controller". After a little research, I believe that the graphics card is a Radeon HD4350. With this information, I still have been unable to toinstlal the correct drivers or the other of these elements. I tried several drivers listed on the support page of the drivers on the HP website, but all fo return them the same error of not finding the right operating system. The link to the driver, I used initially on my previous installation seems is no longer valid.

  Also, I can't access two additoinal hard disks (sata connected). They were used with the previous installation of windows without any problem. They appear in the Device Manager but do not show in my computer. A removable disk appears that I don't know what it is. Previously I used the software to mirror one of the disks on the other in order to avoid the loss of data if a disk fails. Is one of the above players with not be able to access the drives causing the problem or the software used before the problem?

  Any help on these questions is greatly appreciated.

  Ok.

  I can't help you with the readers then.  It is out of my area of knowledge.  If they are healthy and active in the disk management utility, then that's all that I know these should be reported.

  As for the graphics drivers...

  Download and install this free utility for files.

  http://www.7-zip.org/

  After installing 7 - zip, right-click on the graphic driver file and select 7 - zip from the list of options.

  Choose 7-zip to extract to: and leave it to unzip the file in a folder.  I have it extracted the file name of the file.

  Then just follow the rest of my instructions to install the driver.

  Of course that you you first go to where 7 - zip extract the folder and continue from there.

• PowerEdge 2850 - trying to install Windows Server 2008 R2 from USB

  Hello

  Let me start with this: they gave me this server by a friend, and I thought it would be a very rewarding experience.

  I want to install Windows Server 2008 R2 from a USB key. I already formatted the USB drive by using diskpart and implemented the fat32 file system. Then I went on the Windows site and downloaded Windows Server 2008 R2, which is a NTI .iso file and which resulted in the new format USB key

  On the server, I already put 'Manage USB Controller - with bios' and changed the sequence of drive for the "emulated hard disk USB flash drive" at the top.

  Now on the screen of boot sequence, after the press for installation of BMC, he says ' remove disks or other media. Press any key to restart"

  What's not here? Shouldn't I see a Windows Server set up the screen? I'm not there is something very basic I'm missing, but any help is appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Remove the USB when it restarts the first time :)

• Setting up MS server 2008 + Sharepoint and MS Exchange 2008 on ESXi 4.0

  Dear people,

  I setting upward the above and would like help on how to get better on the installation;

  (1) MS Exchange Server Management 2010

  (2) and MS Win Server 2008 * (Active Directory + Sharepoint).

  Does anyone have useful information or items of 'How To' for installation in a VMware ESXi 4.0 environment?

  Also, more specifically, I have already experienced the 256 GB limit I would prefer to have more large size of disc than this.  Is it possible to have a

  larger size of drive to the server? If so, how?

  If this is not what is the size of space disk would be an urge?

  I thought I had:

  C: (OS) 125 GB

  D: (data) 256GB

  E: (DATA) 99 GB

  A better suggestion is welcome.

  Thank you very much

  Vinny

  As a first step, I'd look through the following measures. http://www.VMware.com/solutions/business-critical-apps/

  You can change the maximum disk size by recreating the data store with a larger block size. You will need to delete the existing data store, so if you already have VMs that are assigned to the data store you migrating to another place, then move them back.

  At Christmas, let him download and install updates.

  But going back, I found it displayed error '0xc00000e9' and ' boot manager is missing or damaged.

  I tried to repair by original DVD disc but I can't find the installation of windows 'fix' and on that list, empty it.

• Drivers for Windows Server 2008 R2

  PE1950, 2950 and MD3000i MPIO on Windows Server 2008 R2

  We're trying to nail a few dates to migrate our W2K8 R2 platform and plan the project.  We have most of our technical plans in place, and we have the code.  We have no Dell drivers however and there are several suspicious communications from Dell on this topic...

  Case #1: http://en.community.dell.com/blogs/insideit/archive/2009/08/10/ready-for-the-transition-dell-provides-support-for-windows-server-2008-r2.aspx

  Note:

  • Our engineers have missed on countless piano recitals, songs and episodes of American Idol while spending thousands of hours of testing and validation to make sure that dy products Dell running Windows Server 2008 R2 are the business-rea.
  • We have pilot complete support for Windows Server 2008 R2 for Dell hardware so you can deploy, run and manage easily. You can go here to download the drivers.

  If you view the service labels in our support of similar product groups, you will find an R2 option for servers... but the only public services on the PowerVault MD3000i you don't find any reference to R2 at all.

  Case #2: http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/Supportted+Dell+PowerEdge+Systems+for+Microsoft+Windows+Server+2008+R2+Beta

  This is a list of Beta for PE obviously compatible servers, however it would make sense If Microsoft has included natively the right drivers for the Dell hardware in the distribution of Microsoft R2 RTM so, just can't find any supporting documentation and do not know if the network drivers are compatible with MD3000i.

  #3: There are a few hacks to get drivers Windows 2008 MPIO inherited working with the RC R2 & MD3000i on this forum, but no reference to R2 in the MD3000i matrix and nothing on the site... it's why, we have wondering again where are the good drivers for R2 RTM?

  Can you be it someone from Dell and or this forum please send information on these issues?

  #1: driver compatibility of matrix for Windows Server 2008 R2 running on PE1950 and connected to an MD3000i PE2950 is a supported configuration?  (Code R2 RTM was released to Microsoft volume license customers)

  #2: the network drivers for the host machines included in the support of Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM?  If this is true, are the drivers MPIO for MD3000i and iSCSI Dell other platforms included in the support of Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM as well then?

  #3: If all the answers are not questions #1 and #2... could someone PLEASE contact people of pilot certification on Dell to see if they are same in QA at this point, if they plan to update and display an estimated date of implementation?  We have contacted tech support, but received very vague answers on anything with R2 at this stage.  There is a business directory and a path to escelation for support tickets, but the midrange as this makes it much easier to share information for the masses, we just have not yet found.

  Thanks for your information, comments and your support!

  OptimalState

  I was finally sent to someone who could give me some information on this within Dell, here's what they said:

  PE 1950/2950 drivers:

  The pilot should be included natively in Windows Server 2008 R2 media, and if so, would these drivers would be supported by Dell in a production scenario.

  MD3000i:

  I know that we will not issue a new MDSM which will fund 2008 R2 until sometimes in October. The MD3000i requires MPIO to the MD3000i and Dell drivers driver installation to work properly. I'll see if there is other information that I can find. I understand your frustration and engineer told me that this has been corrected in the next MDSM and MD3000i firmware version in October.

  So, it looks like October before MD3000i will be supported.

• Windows Server 2008 Enterprise upgrade of 2008 has beaten the bad standard

  Hello

  I installed a virtual server for production of Windows Server 2008 Standard, Windows Server 2008, Enterprise Edition (32-bit x 86/i386, support of license Volume and MAK), because I needed some additional features in the Enterprise edition.  During the upgrade process, the server hung a few times, requiring a "hard reset" to continue the installation (which seems normal for the installation of Server 2008 on this virtual hardware).

  However, after the installation is "complete", the server seems badly broken: the local view is empty, with a mobile mouse pointer.  Remote Desktop connection with takes a long time (more than an hour!, even after additional restart), to go beyond 'Application user settings', and once connected, the basic points are broken: starting server manager reports that it might not activate a plugin whose GUID I can't find in a web search, open the 'centre' of the network shows a blank window by typing "NET START someservicename" or 'SC START someservicename' hangs rather than launch this service or signals an error.

  Anyone know how to get out of this quagmire, short copy the latest data and wiping the hard drive?

  Please repost your request in one of the most appropriate Microsoft Windows Server Forums, thank you!

• Server 2008 (R2): dcpromo fails due to dynamic IP addresses

  It is my first installation of Windows Server 2008. Maybe someone has an experience with this?

  I installed Windows Server 2008 R2 in a VMWare environment. For networking, I chose Host-only in VMWare Workstation and installed Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.

  After that, I added the AD DS role for my installation of Windows Server 2008 R2 and run DCPROMO. EXE...

  The arrested installation process between the two because of the dynamic IP addresses. I went into the properties of the LAN adapter and changed from a static IPv6 address. (I disabled IPv4).

  After that restart dcpromo still refuses to go beyond the point where it looks for dynamic IP addresses. He seems not to recognize the static I chose.

  There may be something to do with my computer? I don't think he has a related issue R2 because Active Directory has not changed "r1".

  Any help is appreciated.
