Did it today, to my buddy's xp pro box that was locking up on him in minutes.......and so far he loves it .....untill he called me about 1 hr. after i left, it seems that he decided to put the security up to server level.
he now wishes he didn't do that. oh well i'll put it back down to a level that he can use without getting pissed off at it till he learns a little about how it works........i think we got one!
