Group Policy to set IE proxy settings --- MS broke it in two parts ; IE 7 -- IE 8,9,10,11

Group Policy to set IE proxy settings --- MS broke it in two parts

for IE up to IE 7, you can set in IE maintenance

for IE 8,9, 10, 11 , you set it in control panel, internet explorer settings

for a windows 2008 domain, you will need a w7 PC to run RSAT tools to edit the group policy


what a rude wake up call

new MegaServeRaid M5110 driver caused IBM x3500 M4 windows 2012 R2 crash - Saturday install / rescue

new MegaServeRaid 5110 driver caused IBM x3500 M4 windows 2012 R2 crash - Saturday install / rescue

brand new server , 12 hours into production, then saddenly the server rebooted.

the MSM eventually displayed a message regarding the raid crash / reboot

luckily this time a quick search turned out some good results on IBM server on IBM website. (refer to my blog regarding MS updates trashed the new installation two week ago)

IBM acknowledged that the latest raid driver causes random reboot. and release a fix-driver, the version number is older than the new one.

I downloaded the fix-driver, but I could not update the new driver.

so I roll back the raid driver (to server 2012 R2 built-in),  then updated to the fix-driver.

what a long day

yeah, I still got hairs on my head
