ok, so i ran hdparm -I /dev/sd* and discovered that sda was in fact the one i unplugged not sde however when i booted the machine just after unplugging the disk, cat /proc/mdstat showed me sde was not in the list.. excuse my greenness :P

thanks, i tried that just after posting, and it does show as 16x (damn DFI i love their boards, but they tell a fat lie in the book. the manual specifically states x16 in both slots). so the problem still stands with a 3/4 inch high heatsink and fan on the northbridge. i guess im gonna...

my Situation is, a domain controller running windows 2003 server, ms sql 2000, and a few other misc databases is on a PC with RAID 5, the RAID is fine, but the motherboard is failing.. the motherboard is a gigabyte s939 with a x2 3800 AMD cpu i have a new rig almost ready to go for another...

thanks :) that worked, but in a strange way if they doubleclick the icon, it still says not authorized probably some policy on the system tray but if they single click it, and then click remove it works so i have a work around :) thanks again

from the domain controller there is no longer a users section in the control panel, but perhaps you were refering to the workstation in question, logging in locally? and then adding a user with the same name as the AD username as a power user?

that did not work... i tried it from a group policy, AND as a local policy just to be sure does anyone else have any suggestions? PLEASE :P i have a really annoying client that dosent stop bugging me about it

thanks, i'll try that today and see if it works all this for one client who shouldent even need a damn USB stick at his job :P
