Heh. Well, at least I know to look for it now.
Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

Kate, you should be able to buy software at the cheaper rate through your school. Also the free iPod only comes with certain models of the iBook.

ita,
I tried to do the media conversion to play files on the Tivo, but discovered that my software is 7.1b and I need 7.2 to transfer files from the computer to the Tivo.
Do you know how/when the software will be updated?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
From what I can tell, LeN, they're sending it out scattershot. It's still in beta, I think.
You have desktop 2.2? By the time I got around to clicking on that link, it was pointing to 2.1. To which I'm upgrading (does anyone know what other than tighter DRM is different between that and 2.0?) anyway.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Frak.
We've got a Windows 2000 server that's screwed up. Printing is screwy, some web-pages don't load correctly, etc. The event viewer won't run - it says the disk is full when there's half a gig free. Windows automatic updates don't install. I downloaded two different windows patches (both .exe files) and it refuses to run them, saying they're not valid 32-bit applications.
Anything I can do, besides take it out back and shoot it?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The worm that's going around is specifically targeting W2K systems.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. You know what the worm specifically affects? or have instructions on how to check for it/kill it?

Based on a check of the registry, it's not the zotob worm, although it could be a variant (there are at least seven now).
Numerous applications are reporting they can't run because the disk is full, whereas Windows Explorer and the DOS window both report half a gig free. My boss is thinking it's the drive that's screwed up, so that certain applications think it's full.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Tom, I've had the opposite, where the disk space was being misreported by the OS, which I had to use Disk Doctor to fix. That was Win98, though.
Meanwhile, I'm sitting here applying critical updates to our Win2000 servers.

AAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!
ND, I could frelling KISS YOU!!!!!! The fixes you suggested have worked. I ran chkdsk from the recovery console and it worked.
I'll now be spending some time back up files to CD and running disk utilities on the hard drive to see if there's something serious here needs worrying about.
