Adding 64bit print drivers to 32bit print server
We got a batch of new computers pre-loaded with 64bit Windows. We are currently a 32bit shop, so this left me with 2 options, reload all the computers with 32bit Windows, or locate 64bit drivers. Now, we have some old printers, but I figured I'd give the 64bit drivers a chance.
Step 1, find 64bit drivers.
Then connect to the print server
Right Click the printer in question and go to Properties
On the Sharing Tab, go to Additional Drivers
Put a check in the x64 checkbox, browse to the location of your drivers and open.
That was easy.
Wait...
"The specified location does not contain the driver for the requested processor architecture"? What?
So to get past this, you'll need a 64bit machine.
Browse to the print server (//printserver/printer) and add the printer. You'll get a message saying the driver wasn't found, at which point you will browse to the 64bit driver you've already located.
Once the printer is successfully installed (*which it should be, I'll go over something that happened to me in a minute) go to the printer properties on the 64bit machine, Sharing Tab, Additional drivers and put a checkmark in the x64 checkbox.
Done.
You can now add this printer to 32 and 64bit machines.
*One of the printers had a different printer driver on the server, when adding to the 64bit machine, the 64bit driver has to match the 32bit driver on the server. Ex) PCL5 on the server, you need 64bit PCL5 driver. If the drivers don't match in this way, you'll get an error about not locating a suitable driver. You can mismatch drivers, but you won't be able to connect through the print server, you'll have to connect directly to the printers IP. Which is completely acceptable, if you don't mind having to manually setup each person that wants to print from that printer.

How do I get to the Group Policy Object Editor?
You type gpedit.msc in the run box.
I'm having a brain fart kind of day and couldn't remember this at all, and when I googled it, most responses were "open the group policy editor, then do...." so that didn't help much. Since its so simple, its probably assumed you know how to get here. Whatever internet, don't judge me.

Dell 9020 3 displays
I have a customer that would like 3 monitors, for whatever reason.
The Dell 9020 is capable of this, and this is how I got it to work.
No additional video cards.
Using VGA and both display ports.
The customer has VGA monitors (as opposed to DVI)
So first, I bought two displayport to VGA cables:
I found it cheaper on their website: http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=102&cp_id=10246&cs_id=1024609&p_id=6019&seq=1&format=2
Its running the latest BIOS (A03) and the intel 4600 video driver from Dell:
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/DriverDetails/Product/optiplex-9020-desktop?driverId=1PRMJ&osCode=W864&fileId=3281932246&languageCode=en&categoryId=VI
No other changes were done in BIOS.
I had originally tried to use a PCI dual monitor card and the on-board, but this wasn't possible. So I had to remove the display driver and reinstall the Intel driver. After the reboot it worked and I now have display on all three.
Tada ( I tried to get the monitors cables and computer in the same pic)

Outlook 2007 Can't display the dialog box when access the Print Dialog box
Got a new one today.
When access the print dialog box, a user was getting an popup saying "Can't display the dialog box"
I initially did my regular fix all for outlook deleting the .ost and any other non-.pst files, and I could get to the dialog box one time, but the error came back after that.
Through some searching I found it is tied to a file called OutlPrnt.

Removing an entry from boot loader
I had a workstation setup with Server 2008 that I was running some testing on, somewhere along the line the computer became confused and thought multiple OS's were on the computer, but when looking at their partitions they were empty. So I wanted to delete them. Come to find out there is no boot.ini file, and that I have to go in through something called bcdedit.
So after some googling, I found the command I needed.
Bcdedit /delete {boot loader identifier}
Enter CMD as admin, and type BCDEDIT, this will give you the list of your boot loaders. The loader you're currently in is listed as {current}, if this is the load you want to keep, don't delete that one.
Located the identifiers and type them into the boot loader identifier portion of the above script. Rinse and repeat as necessary.
Boom, all done.

itunes.msi is missing
First, screw you iTunes.
Second
If you get an error that is asking you to locate an itunes.msi file, don't worry. Its a simple fix.
There are places that tell you to run some MS installer program that will repair it, and the link to it is the dumb Fix It handyman that they have.
(continue at your own risk)
A quick fix would be going into the registry, and searching for itunes.msi. When you find the key that has it, delete the folder that its in. The folder will appear open in the left pane.
Hit F3 to find the next instance, rinse and repeat (delete the folder containing the reference to itunes.msi)
Then search for quicktime.msi, and continue the key deletion.
Once you're done, got to www.itunes.com and reinstall iTunes.
One instance after doing this, I got "apple application support error 2"
but this fix worked for me:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17718475#17718475
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract
to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents
of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a
standalone AAS install.

Dell Inspiron 600m won't boot
I recently had an Inspiron 600m that wouldn't boot.
Press the power button, nothing.
I had it plugged into power, and the battery charging light would illuminate.
After hitting the power button, the Power and Hard Drive lights would illuminate for a moment, and then shut off, leaving me with the battery charging light.
To get it to boot up again I did the following:
Removed AC and battery, held power for 15-20 seconds
Resat memory (I had 2 sticks so I just swapped them)
Replaced battery and plugged back into AC power and it started up.
Press the power button, nothing.

Symantec Backup Exec, the selection of user shares is disabled
Setting up backup exec 11d, I got this error:
So I follow the directions like a good little minion, only to find that this:
Double and triple checking didn't make it any better... Network and Security are not showing up.
After some searching I thought maybe this was because I was running Backup Exec 11d Quickstart. But after a little more digging, I found that wasn't it at all. It was simply a preference setting.
So back in options, I went to settings like so:
And at the bottom of this screen there is a radial button that was on 'Simple' instead of 'Full'
So I changed that to full and confirmed out. And would you look at that, Network and Security is there!
I don't know if anyone uses backup exec 11d anymore, but if you do, I hope this was useful :)

Exchange 2003, Purge and Reconnect greyed out
Ok, so I'm a total noob with this exchange stuff. I recently had an issue where a mailbox didn't delete when a user was deleted. I was able to locate the mailbox in the Exchange System Manager.
(btw the path to the user store is admin groups, location, exchange server the account resides on, storage group, mailboxes)
When I would right click on the broken email box, I had Reconnect and Purge greyed out. Turns out you have to run the cleanup agent first.
Right click on Mailboxes and the top option is Run Cleanup Agent. When its done, you'll see a red x by the disconnected mailbox, you can now reconnect or purge the account.
