5.4.2007 Hardening Windows XP Professional
Windows XP has considerably more functionality than Windows 2000. With this functionality come more services and more potential security holes. Some of the measures undertaken by IST to reduce the risk are outlined in the extracts below. These are the security-related sections IST follows when building a Windows XP image for distribution within Academic Support.
NOTE: Most of these changes require you to sign on as an administrator.
The first and most important change to be applied is to set a password on all user accounts. Next it is very strongly advised that you do not log on with an administrative account but rather a ?User? or ?Power User? account.

Call it a sign of desperation, a new attempt to blow some wind in the sails of its latest platform, or a reaction to the proverbial last drop, but Microsoft is delivering its own perspective in terms of the comparison between its two Windows clients sharing the vast majority of the operating system market. Just ahead of the availability cut-off date for Windows XP through the OEM and retail channels, the Redmond company has “come out gunning” in a move designed to settle once and for good the XP vs. Vista face-off.

10.01.2006Intel's BIOS tool spells death bell for third party utilities
ECS is showing
Intel's backup utility called
the System Recovery Tool.
This utility sits inside
the BIOS of a motherboard that
of course, sports Intel's
latest chipsets. The
application features partition
and disk image backup and
recovery, just like a lot of
third-party applications.
However, being built inside
the BIOS, it has the advantage
of not needing any sort of
boot or recovery CDs, rather
pressing a function key (F3 in
the case of ECS's boards) on
a keyboard.
The image
creation process is very
simple - press the F3 key,
pick the option Create new
image, choose what partition
will be backed up and the
destination (different
partition, CD, DVD medium).
You can expect this
feature to come on many
motherboards in near future.

19.10.2009More server problems, forum downtime
Last night one of our apache
servers died, we don't know
why or what caused it and we
are still waiting for our
server admin to respond to an
email we sent.
Also
the forum started mass
doubling posts for almost
every submission, sometimes
triple posting a submission.
Again we aren't sure whats
causing that either. Marcel
has put count queries back on
the Master SQL database, which
means the load on our Master
is back to where it was last
week..
I'm not
really sure what we can do to
fix these problems, but we
have Dave and Marcel looking
into it.
The forum
is offline while Marcel does a
topic recount.. this takes
time and when thats complete
the forums will re-open. Later
today we should have the
second apache server back up..
Hopefully there will be
something in the logs that
tell us what went wrong
there.
I'd like to
apologise for our downtime.
Its very frustrating to me and
I know that our valued members
are getting annoyed at the
constant server problems. I
will be looking into getting
professional advice next week,
to see if we can resolve some
issues.
Thanks to
everyone for the continued
patience while we try to
resolve the issues.

25.03.2007Simple guide to test Vista SP1 RC1 on a separate partition
Long Zheng: A couple of people, dozen at max, have expressed interest in testing out the
soon-to-be-public Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Release Candidate release. There are many ways of installing and testing
operating systems and even more so service packs so it can be rather confusing and cumbersome experience for some people out there. Out of all the
possibilities, I do myself and recommend everyone to always start fresh, but that doesnt always mean from the command prompt.
Whilst release candidate will be a very good representation of the final product early next year, it still means youll have to forfeit this
release sooner or later so it is not recommended you replace your existing Windows installation with it. Especially with all the problems people have
been running into uninstalling their service pack betas which itself sounds like a really bad idea anyway, its ideal to set up a fresh install. And
the most convenient fresh install is on a separate partition on existing disks.
Formerly the process of splitting a partition
involved third-party software which is time-consuming and sometimes unreliable, however a less-known disk management function in Windows Vista will
simplify all that.

10.12.2007Halo 3's Master Chief Invades Tussauds' Vegas Museum
Note to Elvis, Princess Diana, and Britney Spears: Take cover!
Master Chief, the plasma-ray packing protagonist in
Microsoft's forthcoming Halo 3 videogame, will stand alongside the other celebrities in Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in Las Vegas.
The "life-sized" figure of Master Chief was unveiled at a ceremony at the famed museum on the Strip last week. The wax version of the futuristic
soldier stands an impressive 7-foot, 2-inches tall. That beats by an inch what was until now the museum's tallest resident -- a statue of NBA star
Shaquille O'Neal.
Master Chief is the first videogame character to be enshrined in a wax museum, according to Tussauds
officials.
The event is the latest indication that Halo 3, set to debut on September 25th for the Xbox 360 console, will smash
sales records for game discs. Internet retailers such as Amazon.com, Walmart.com, and BestBuy.com have taken more than a million pre-orders for the
first person shooter. ..

13.08.2009Cooler Master HAF 932 Full Tower ATX case review
For the ultimate gaming machine the full tower ATX case has become the weapon of choice, though evidently not for its portability or value. Rather
gamers with high-end systems are turning to the full tower ATX form factor simply so they can comfortably fit all their extreme hardware. With
flagship GeForce and Radeon graphics cards now measuring over 9" long (23cm) typical mid-size cases are no longer sufficient. The Cooler Master HAF
932 is a truly impressive looking gaming case without being over the top in anyway. The design is clean yet aggressive at the same time, which is not

Gateway continued to reposition itself following its sale to Acer on Monday, saying that it had sold its professional division -- which includes

While initially the transition will be
seamless to customers, within one year the MPC brand will replace Gateway's on professional products. Support relationships will be assumed
immediately.
With Gateway's professional unit in tow, MPC will have annual sales of about $1.1 billion USD with 1,000
employees. "Virtually all" of Gateway's employees in the professional division have been transitioned to new jobs within MPC, the companies

17.07.2008Apple Updates Boot Camp Software
Apple has updated its beta
Boot Camp software to version
1.1.2. The software lets
owners of Intel Macs install
Windows XP on their Mac in a
separate partition, allowing
users to choose which
operating system to boot up to
on startup. The new version
offers support for all the
latest Intel-based Macs, and
also makes it easier to
partition hard disks for the
installation of Windows XP by
offering partitioning
presets.
Boot Camp
1.1.2 lets users install
Windows XP on any internal
disk; adds support for
built-in iSight cameras and
microphones; supports Apple's
USB modem, trackpad scrolling
and right-clicking on a
notebook; and furnishes
improved keyboard support.
Apple notes that
installation is relatively
painless: "If you previously
installed Boot Camp beta, you
can easily update to Boot Camp
1.1.2 beta. You don't need to
partition your hard drive
again (unless you want to
change its size) or reinstall
your Macintosh and Windows
software or documents, but
it's very important to update
the Boot Camp Assistant
software, create a new
Macintosh Drivers for Windows
CD and install the updated
software it contains on
Windows XP."

31.07.2009Web address system faces changes
The way the internet handles website domains is going to change, following an update to the core "addressing system".
If we continue with
the current way of allocating web addresses, we will run out of available domain names by 2011.
So the internet's master address book
is being updated to include records written in a new format, IP version 6, which will help to create millions of new potential web addresses.
The problem occurs because people and the internet use two different methods to call up web pages: we type words into the address bar of our
browser, whereas our computers translate that into a string of numbers to find the page that you are looking for. This numerical string is taken from
the internet's master address book of domains.
