Ignore “One or More Margins Are Set Outside the Printable Area of the Page”

Posted by paris on Feb 24, 2010 in Fixes

A client recently produced a mail merge , however the document was outside the printable margins. It did however print fine via the printer but displayed an error for each page :

Microsofts Fix for this , is to change the margins included the printable area by:

File , Page Setup, Margins Tab, Change all the Margins to Zero Press ok , and you should be greeted by a dialogue box telling you to fix your page margins

However if this changes your layout of your page into something totally off center then you can use this to stop the error message coming up in the first place

In MS Word

- Select File – Print
- In the Zoom area set scale paper size from “no scaling” to “letter” or “legal” or whatever your paper size is

do you want to view only the webpage content that was delivered securely

Posted by paris on Jan 13, 2010 in Fixes

Even when adding a site to a trusted site in Internet Explorer sometimes you get these warnings :

“Do you want to view only the webpage content that was delivered securely

This webpage contains content that will not be delivered using a secure HTTPS connection, which could compromise the security of the entire webpage.”

“This page contains both secure and nonsecure items.
Do you want to display the nonsecure items?”

If you want to get rid of these :

Go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Security

Choose “Internet” Icon ( And if you have added the site to a trusted site you will need to do this for the trusted sites as well )

Click the “Custom Level” button

In the “Miscellaneous” section change “Display mixed content” to Enable.

Restart Internet Explorer – Jobs a Goodun!

RDP File “unable to open connection file”

Posted by paris on Nov 25, 2009 in Fixes

Remote_desktop_connectionUpon trying to open up a remote application on a 2008 terminal server I am greeted with the following

error:unable to open connection file.

This issue seems to be down to the file signing , if you have access to the terminal server , republish the file without signing and redeploy this. You can take out the signing manually by

  • Opening up the .rdp file in question with notepad
  • Find the line starting “signscope:s:” and delete any of the text on that line and after it. ( This removes the signing code )
  • Save the text file and try again

How to Passthrough USB to Virtual Machines in ESX and ESXi

Posted by paris on Nov 4, 2009 in Fixes
Belkin Network 5-Port USB2.0 Hub - F5L009UK

Click on the Image to Buy Belkin Network 5-Port USB2.0 Hub - F5L009UK

The VMware Virtulised Operating systems ESXi and ESX do not support USB passthrough. VMware has stopped USB passthrough, as ESX was designed for VMotion. You can migrate Virtual Machines between physical servers and no one will notice. USB will prevent this, since VM is locked to physical USB port.

This brings a problem for Small Business’ when it comes down to their backup solutions. Large Enterprises will use SCSI or SAN which are compatible with VMotion. Luckily this problem has been resolved using a device from Belkin.

The Belkin Network 5-Port USB2.0 Hub maps up to 5 USB devices over a normal TCP/IP network for you. Installation is simple and once installed on a machine will immediately detect the plug and play devices connected to the HUB

This device will also solve issues with servers needing to access USB Dongles with hardware keys on them for anti piracy reasons as seen here

The cheapest I could find was one on Amazon for £52 including free postage

Insert disk labeled intel application accelerator driver

Posted by paris on Oct 31, 2009 in Fixes

Sata Native ModeI was reinstalling Windows XP on a laptop , Upon loading the Serial ATA Drivers ( Via a floppy during setup ) and running the installation I was asked

“insert the disk labeled Intel Application Accelerator driver into drive A”
The Intel Application Accelerator driver uses AHCI for Native Hot Plugging a drive , which is something you are not going to hopefully need while installing windows. To stop this error message coming up I went into the BIOS and disabled AHCI for the windows Installation

If this is not an option for you, you might have to go ahead and create another floppy with the needed intel application accelerator driver!

14-wxp-boot3[1]

Here is a RAR file with all the needed drivers

Details on how to yourself :
