Activating windows
Short and easy way to activate windows is by using the command slmgr.vbs/ato in the command prompt terminal. On Windows 8 you type in cmd in the search engine and it will open a separate window
Logging into library computers
Have you ever tried to log in to Novell and Windows keeps telling you that it cant connect to the network even though the SCU tree shows up?
Well there is an easy solution to that :
Under advanced options where it says servers type-in the address to the server which is 129.210.8.7 or 129.210.8.4 one of those should work.
(NOTE: sometimes *student* will not work if the account name is misspelled )
