Re: Problems with Vista and Operations Console

msconfig is a good troubleshooting tool. it shows all the services
running on the system, lets you limit the display to non msft
services, lets you disable them and keep them from starting when you
boot the system.

Off subject but related. Removed one more rock on the "Vista Trail of

Apparently it had a hidden fire wall in it that was blocking the Vista
machine from seeing the two XP machines on the hardwired network. Running
like a 4 minute miler now.

I guess the lesson learned from that experience is if you are starting off
on a new journey with a new vehicle - buy it bare bones and install all of
the software so you know what's really in it. I guess our friends at HP
(China) didn't want us to network.  There Customer Support Techies certainly
didn't know what they were talking about. Yeh, I know what you good old
conservative are going to say - "Don't buy serial # 1 and let someone else
do the debugging for the first year or so".  Well there are a few of us left
who remember reading TR's advice to the troops at San Juan - "CHARGE".

Subject: Problems with Vista and Operations Console

So, I installed Vista on a separate partition on my console PC, and when I
launch the program, I get the error "Operations Console requires Dial-Up
networking".  I have installed the Operations Console modem driver.

Anyone tried this yet?  Not a big deal problem, just seeing if anyone's run
across it yet.
