      Well, that's more of a cultural thing that I was not able to change.

      Then the trick is to describe the incident as "as desired", not as a problem.

      ah ha, I "see" what you did there!

    • RE: Chrome-oh Slow-Mo

      Also i have noticed that if you use [link text](link url) I can not chose new tab or window when I right click, the choice is missing. However if you have http://www.mangolassi.it I can choose to open in new tab or window.

      Edit...ok...neither are working at the moment.

    • RE: Chrome-oh Slow-Mo

      I have experienced the slow mo occasionally too while using Chrome 64bit.

      Also I will get the red underline that I have not spelled something right, but if I right click there are no words to choose from.

      Also I will click to last position and it fails or hangs and prevents me from going further down the page until I refresh it.

      So I understand that using Hyper-V, I should be able to Insert Intergration Services Setup Disk so I can use the mouse in the VM while remoteing into the PC with Hyper-V.

      Sounds easy enough,, Start the VM, click on Action, then click on Insert Integration Services Setup Disk. BUT, it's not there...it's not even greyed out, it's just not there.

      So is Hyper-V missing key pieces in the W10 Technical Preview?

      I'm using W10 in Hyper-V 2012 R2 without issue. The Integration services iirc were already present in the TP, no additional installation was required.

      In my scenario, the PC's main OS is W10 TP and it's running Hyper-V which I have the Vista VHD running finally. That Vista VHD has no Insert Services Setup Disk.

      Is there another way to get the Insert Integration Services started?

      Awesome, though completely ridiculous that simple text files like html and php would mess up your sync program!!

      Yeah...he mentioned that he has seen it upload PHP and HTML but those are also people's ODfB that was having syncing problems...so...ridiculous, but I'll work around it for now.

    • RE: OneDrive for business

      Success! And I must say that although support was not as quick as I would have liked, the service and tech was excellent.

      I mentioned that i was a tech during the phone conversations where they have you tell them again why you need help (which I hate because I have already crafted my complaint and often my steps to fix said problem.)

      As mentioned by @scottalanmiller and possibly others, SharePoint and ODfB has a list of file extension that can't be used. However the tech said they don't really have an updated list of what is bad. Example this list doesn't show .htm, .html, .php however he has seen these files work or gum up the works.

      The fix?

      • Stop ODfB sync client.
      • Copy data elsewhere since the stuff on the harddrive was the known good master list.
      • Delete the folder that was associated with ODfB
      • Delete all files on ODfB website (O365 admin dashboard) except my OneNote files
      • Click Sync from ODfB website and confirm that the OneNote Notebooks synced
      • ODfB showed up in File Explorer
      • Start adding one folder at a time and watch/wait for syncing. Zipped every web file to make sure they weren't going to hang up the works.
      • All folders and files have been synced

      I had to talk to the manager after the incident was resolved and was told that I would have the tech's contact info and to contact him for ANY Sharepoint/ODfB issues, even for my clients. Wooo hoooo!

      Can anyone tell me how to:

      • get a larger screen for the Virtual machine? View Full Screen Mode only makes the window larger.

      That's done in the OS, not in the hypervisor.

      Thanks...I've got the full size now.

      • When I use RDP to connect to the PC with Hyper-V the mouse is not captured in the VM only
      • Since my VM was created by attaching my VHD, is it possible to export the whole thing as one VM? (I am probably saying it wrong and it might not matter, I just thought there might be a good idea to save as a Hyper V VM.

    • RE: Disk2vhd and VirtualBox woes

      So let me put this out there in case this happens to someone else.

      If you have a P2V done by Disk2vhd and you get the a disk read error occurred, here is what worked for me:

      *open Disk Manager and mount VHD

      • make sure you have a partition for System Reserved and mark it active (I had a raw partition so I had to format it with NTFS and marked it active.)
      • Create a new Virtual Machine in Hyper-V and do NOT connect to VHD
      • Connect to VHD
      • Boot to boot disk, W7 install disk will work. WARNING Repair with System Recovery will not work if you use x64 on x32 VHD. Also using the Hyper-V manager in W10 preview, the DVD wouldn't always show up for boot, so I used a 32bit W7 HP ISO.
        *Proceed with System Recovery and wait for the reboot.
      • TA DA!!

      Ok...have no idea what that was till I used Google.

      ok...adapter = DVI to HDMI cord Asus provided with either the monitor or PC. Which was previously attached and no sound would come out when used with the 3.5mm sound cord.

    • RE: Disk2vhd and VirtualBox woes

      I had one of those awesome moments where you don't know whether to shout YES! YES! or just sob quietly with joy. And that moment was when Vista with my MS Accounting program finally booted to the desktop! I held my breath as I waited to see if the accounting Program would start up and if the data was intact. Yes and YES!

      Ok, I just thought of something really obvious. Enable the device for the DVI link, and turn up the volume on the monitor. Do you get sound?

      AJ, Was that for me?

      Yes. That was for you. We need to establish if in the process of killing sound from the speakers if the sound even works from the DVI to HDMI in the first place.

      No sound at all when DVI to HDMI was connected.

      The sound would have been routing through the monitor. Was the volume up on the monitor?

      Yes the volume was up. The sound works though the monitor speakers if connected via 3.5mm jack and VGA cord.
