Hyper-V not working on a non-VT cpu

If you have not downloaded and installed the intel CPU ID utility, you may see the following, and with good reason. Go and get a new CPU, you dont have Intel VT support.

Hyper V on a Lenovo

If you going to run Hyper-V make sure the CPU supports it. This is how it looks on an Intel. This is a IBM Lenovo thinkpad Z61p

Hyper-V and laptops - Z61p T61p

If you are trying to use a IBM (lenovo) Z61p or T61p then make sure you go to Intel and check that you have a CPU that supports it. You need to go to Intel and download the right binary for your CPU, the link is here.

Intel web site

Once you do that you can ensure that your CPU is supported. Here is an example.

Microsoft really nailed it this time, Vista

Yep, refreshing news to see what most people think is true for the press too. Vista in the top-10 WORST list. Albeit at number 10, but it had some stiff competition...

It is clear now that religion is the cause for the fuel war

Slow down a batch file - with no CPU hit

I had to put this together for a customer runing a Citrix server that needed a pause to map a drive but need to give the icon to the Citrix users desktop. Well a batch file will hit the cpu to 100% with the choise or other command, so here is a VSB/WSH self contained batch file.



@echo off
cls

:searchfile

if exist I:\ goto runapp
echo searchfile I:\

echo sleeping...
echo Wscript.Sleep 5000> M:\sleep.vbs
start /w wscript.exe m:\sleep.vbs
del m:\sleep.vbs

goto searchfile

:runapp
i:\
Start "My Sepecial App" M:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\Cmd.exe /c U:\xpfalcon.exe
CLS

:quit
Exit



Tis the silly season, time to read a DNS/BIND book.
