funny stuff
« on: May 20, 2008, 07:58:38 AM »
I am in a computer repair class and during our hands on final, a student in my class who always gets in trouble ended up completely locking xp. It is so bad, we don't even have permission to shut down.

Speak to the Teacher and or the IT staff at school and i'm sure they will be able to unlock things and give him a D minus for the semester...

lol, our teacher doesn't even know what's wrong with it so she is going to contact the IU9 administrator to come down and take a look.

sounds like GRPEDIT at work here....

Safe-mode, grpedit (please tell me it is XP pro...) and then restore policies. (don't know exactly how it works)

BC you may want to leave this one alone as it involves compromising measures that were put in place for a reason...
