Sage 100 install in Windows server

When installing sage 100 in a server please note the following important things. – After installing the program the test database might not work if you you buy the basic pack, as you might need pack + to make it work. in that case you can ask your distributor to just put in the license of a pack + open the database, than change the license again. The reason why it doesnt work is simply because pack + has the option of various warehouses per business , so once you make it work for the first time with the correct license you can disable multi warehouses and make it work, than change the license again,. – After installing the program make sure the shortcuts and database information is stored on a seperate folder under the root or d: drive than share it as otherwise when installing new computers that connect to the sage 100 through the network not terminal server would not be able to connect. – Make sure that manually you change all the shoortcuts to show name of server \ the shared folder. if you go through the route like d:\\users\folder name it wouldnt work . – How to install on other computers coming in a post soon!!!

AS400 TCP-IP not working after power cut

When you have a problem connecting to the AS400 server after a power cut / power surge the most likely culprit is the network card.

The first thing you should check is obviously the connection m reboot switch, check id cable is correct, then check if lights on the network card is on. if it is on than enter directly on the server, click on GO TCPADM m there you can choose the various options the first one being 5 and eneter when selected *ALL .

If the lights are off first the last steps and if still not working than open the server , take off the network card and reinstall it, then back to the process on top. but if the lights on network card still not on than the most likely is the card is done for.

Rememeber to be very patient as it can take upto 30 minutes for the server to work fully.

Update: another step to do before takeing the network card and putting it back in is to go from main menu WRKLIND put number 8 next to ethline option , if it is active than first deactivate puting number 2 next to the first line ethline and number 1 to activate once it is changed, pressing F5 will refresh the page.

Steps for cleaning out viruses, malware and spyware

When you see something funny going on your computer, the best thing would be to go to an expert but as taking it down to the shop is expensive there are some steps that in a lot of cases would solve the problem . First thing is ALWAYS make a full backup of your computer and all the files before you start any of the following steps. Go to ccleaner.com , download the ccleaner (right now version 3.0) it is free for home users . what the progrum does , it cleans your computer quite well, and even fixes your registery problems. Than try reinstaling one of the free antivirus programs out there, like avast or nod. personally i like avast as i have een working with it and no problems. once you reinstall or install the anti virus make a complete check for viruses in avast you should select the boot scan as it has a better chances of deleting the viruses whily in boot mode before starting windows. and last go to hitmanpro.nl and download the hitman pro , right now version 3.5 which is free as well which does a really quick scan and is good as a second opinion as it can find some things especially spyware. Using this basic solutions usually solves the problems. Sometimes you can have problems installing the anti virus or ccleaner as the vrus or spyware doesnt allow you to install any programs, in that case first make sure that your dns has not been changed and try installing it going in to safe mode (usually pressing F8 while rebooting.) Good luck!

Windows 7 error: Local Area Connection doesn’t have a valid ip

Problem: After upgrading a windows vista to windows 7 we started having problems that every time we started windows the network card would have an error and not connect to internet or any other computers , to fix it we had to click on the network icon and select troublsoot problems , that would fix it and the error it would show was “local area connection doesnt have a valid ip” , so we figured that it must be because upgrading is never as good as installing from scratch. so we reinstalled windows 7 and the problem still occured.

Solution: Go to network and internet, right click the local area connection or wireless , properties and deselect the internet protocol version 6, only leaving the version 4 it seems to have solved the problem. if that doesnt work you can always try to take a fixed ip.

Pasos para limpiar el ordenador de virus, malware, spyware

Cuando ves que tu ordenador empiza a comportarse de manera extraña, lo mejor que puedes hacer es consultar con un experto, pero como llevarlo a la tienda puede salir caro, hay algunos pasos sencillos a seguir que en muchos casos puede solucionar el problema. Lo primero y mas importante es SIEMPRE hacer una copia de seguridad de todos tus archivos a algun dispositivo externo antes de realizar cualquiera de los siguientes pasos. Abre ccleaner.com en tu explorador, baja la ultima version de ccleaner (ahora mismo es la 3.0) es gratuito para uso privado. Lo que este programa hace es limpiar el ordenador bastante a fondo y hasta arregla problemas en el registro de windows.   Luego intenta reinstalando alguno de los antiviros gratuitos que existen en la web, como Avast o Nod. Personalmente prefiero Avast, ya que lo he estado utilizando por algun tiempo sin ningun problema. Una vez que reinstales el antivirus, lo que debes hacer es un escaneado completo de tu ordenador para esto selecciona opcione de Escanear al iniciar el equipo,  ya que hay mas probabilidades de eliminar viruses cuando se escanea mientras windows aun no haya iniciado.   Por ultimo ve a hitmanpro.nl y baja Hitman Pro, ahora mismo la ultima version es la 3.5, tambien es gratuito. Haz un escanado rapido, y asi podras tener una segunda opinion, ya que puede encontrar algunos spywares especiales que Avast o Nod posiblemente no detecten.   Siguiendo estos pasos basicos normalmente se solucionan los problemas.   Algunas veces podrias tener problemas instalando el antivirus o ccleaner, ya que el virus o spyware que esta en tu ordenador no esta permitiendo que estos programas sean instalados, en esos casos asegurate de que tu DNS no haya sido cambiado e intenta instalarlos en Modo Seguro (normalmente presionando F8 cuando reinicias) Buena suerte!
