You can enable, disable, or modify the way that error reporting works on a Windows XP-based computer. When an error occurs, a dialog box is displayed that prompts you to report the problem to Microsoft. If you want to report the problem, technical information about the problem is sent to Microsoft over the Internet. You must be connected to the Internet to use the feature. If a similar problem has been reported by other users and information about the problem is available, you receive a link to a Web page that contains information about the problem.

 The Windows AIK provides excellent opportunities to create custom Windows PE based images. Those images are provided as WIM files and can be easily converted to ISO files to be burned on CD or DVD. WIM files can also be used to boot from the network using Windows Deployment Services. The Microsoft site also provides procedures to boot a WIM file from USB drive or a clean local hard drive. Unfortunately I was not able to find a complete description how to place a WIM boot image on the local hard disk and provide it as alternative boot option in the Vista boot Menu.

Recently there was a necessity to install a Virtual CD/DVD on many computers on the same network. And it was necessary, that CD/DVD would be set to the special letter in system. Right now existed a lot of programs which emulate CD/DVD and can mount any CDs/DVD images but as I wished to make all installation and configuration remoutly (well laziness to me to run from a computer to a computer) that was necessity, that the program could setup in silent mode. After small searches has stopped on program МagicDisc.

Windows Software Update Server (WSUS) is a great product that can be used to push out updates to your Windows computers. If you are deploying it in an Active Directory domain, you can use a GPO to quickly and easily configure your computers to use Automatic Updates and look to the WSUS server for those updates. But what if you are not using AD, can you still use WSUS?

The next major version of Windows Server has been on a slow burn for years. The story of this product, which, like Windows Vista, is codenamed Longhorn, does indeed have its origins alongside Microsoft's recently released client operating system (see my Windows Vista review).
