Hey all, I'm in the need of some help.  I have not been able to successfully image Windows 8 yet.  I'm loading all of my software on my creation machine, installing the FOG client, I run SYSPrep in audit Mode, generalize then upload the image to FOG.  My image goes up to FOG cleanly, comes down with no problems but the  "Missing Operating System" error message comes up every time.  My FOG image is set to Windows 7 now, however I've tried VISTA & Other as well, same results every time.See More

I'm having a strange thing happening.  It started with my HP XW4550 towers and how it's happening to my HP DC7900 towers and some of my Lenovo's as well.  I will either get a 5-5-5 beep pattern and then a red LED or just will not get any video at all.  If I shut down the machine pull all of the RAM and re-insert it one chip at a time, restart-acknowledge RAM change-boot to a Windows login screen- shut down-insert the next chip-repeat the same process the computer will come up and run fine. …See More

Is anyone looking for any overhead projectors.  Yhese are the ones that will project transparencies on the screen.  We have about 12 of them that we would like to sell/trade (stop laughing). Ages are about 6-10 years old and we have lots of extra bulbs available. BrianSee More
