Remote desktop access to Windows 7 from 2008 R2
location: 7forums.com - date: January 14, 2012
I am logged in to Server 2008 R2 and attempting to logon to a Windows 7 Pro workstation using Remote Desktop. If the account I use to log on to the Win 7 machine has Domain Admin privileges, I can log on successfully. If I use an account lacking Domain Admin privileges, I cannot log in. But I need to log on without Domain Admin privileges for the tests I need to run. I tried making the account a member of Remote Desktop Users group, but that had no effect. I tried running gpedit.msc and adding the account to Local Computer Policy\Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment\Allow logon through Remote Desktop" and running gpudate /force, but still could not logon to the workst

My windows 8 will not recognise my external device (Satnav) which is 18 months old and was registered on my windows XP. How can I enable its recognition on windows 8 so that I can update the maps?
location: microsoft.com - date: May 28, 2013
Ive tried to download software to enable the satnav to be recognised by my new computer system but it doesn't work. I got as far as clicking on 'Install' , a message window opened saying "please wait one moment", nothing happened and I waited 1/2 an hour but the message remained on the screen and nothing else happened. I tried the process several times without any success. Does this mean that I am not going to be able to update my satnav maps?
