...and so it goes on...

Just as I thought I had all fixed, a bug in server 2008 (yupp I had to downgrade to fix so many problems) prevents me from authenticating on the uni network, unless I logged on locally to the server, disabled and then re-enabled the network card. This was painful, so now I'm trying another windows server version to see if I can finally get my project back on the road.

Meanwhile throughout all this server issues, I've been doing some local testing and work on programming for WP7.5 to improve it all, so hopefully in the next week or two, and can start to build a base GUI????

Otherwise some doucmentation and planning is still in order.

But still, this blummin server needs sorting out before it drives me mad.

At least I now know how MS Team Foundation Server works for version control for my project, and thats useful. Just need that stable server environment to host it all on then I can start - yay....

Its that time of the month again

Oh dear, now that I am nearing the end of dying (this illness is finally starting to clear up), my server has decided to have its period today :(
Apparently my Windows Server 2008 R2 installation on partition G:  has a problem and cant boot. Strange, since it was installed on C: ...... hmmmmmmmm

So its back to the community ( http://superuser.com/questions/350685/windows-server-2008-r2-only-boots-to-recovery-console ) to see if anyone can help. Tried all the standard things, but none of them want to work, grrrr. Well better now than closer to the hand ins for my dissertation.

I was even planning to buy another 4TB for the server to back up everything, but that idea went down the drain when I discovered that because of flooding somewhere in one of these countries where they make HDDs, the prices of them have doubled in the past week - grrrrr

Oh well, now just to wait and see how long its going to take to get my server back online so I can finish installing and configuring all the components I need to do my programming.

Back to reality now.........
