			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During a random installation of Windows 7 in a Dell XPS unit. We notice windows kept crashing after rebooting and attempting to complete the installation.<br />
After several attempts we found that we needed to change the hd mode to sata instead of raid. </p>
<p>the windows error was<br />
&#8220;Windows is unable to complete due to a hardware error&#8221;<br />
Nice right , thats for the info Microsoft. </p>
<p>Found this information on a forum as such and verbatim . It might be helpful to someone else that encounters the issue </p>
<p> Do you have windows installed on your SSD in RAID mode before adding these disks as RAID?<br />
     If not you need to, so you will need to go into windows and make the following registry changes first, before setting the BIOS to RAID<br />
     mode, if you installed windows in AHCI or IDE mode.<br />
     Enable switching between all IDE/AHCI/RAID modes by changing &#8220;Start&#8221; Values in these keys to 0<br />
     Code:<br />
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Msahci\Start<br />
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pciide\Start<br />
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\iaStorV\Start</p>
<p>Another user replied as<br />
&#8221;</p>
<p>     A many thanks. Your wisdow is seemingly endless. It was the last entry that was not at zero it was set to 3. I did load windows first<br />
     after changing the SATA&#8217;s to AHCI mode during the first post. After making sure things looked OK a then tried adding the samsungs in<br />
     RAID 0. Thanks again for your help.&#8221;</p>

<p>This occurred on windows vista and windows 7 .  The install closes after gathering information. This is due because the package may already be installed on the system. check under programs and features in the control panel. I would recommend uninstalling any versions of it . then reinstall it</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was helping a friend/associate of mine with his CrackBerry. (android insider) We spent hours trying to find a way to delete one of his contact list. You would think this was a easy task. Select list , click delete </p>
<p>NO this was not the case. After 3 wipes of the device and 3-4 restores. The simple fix was to go to contacts, select the list , then click on options, bring up the keyboard and type rset. </p>
<p>A new window will pop up on the phone&#8217;s screen, which will ask you if you want to wipe the contacts.</p>
<p>Simply choose YES and go through all windows. You will then be able to wirelessly sync or use Desktop Manager to repopulate contacts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We encountered a System Administrator Nightmare. Received notice that a server was running low on /var storage. After checking the server we found that the mysql folder was using 9GB. Come to find out it was only one particular file that was using 7GB which was ibdata1. When the server was launch we did not disable Innodb which use this file for storage. The file grows and grows without regard to server space. There is no truncate or shrink option for this file.<br />
So my question is why use Innodb? Send me a response on Twitter , G+ or Facebook. I want to know seriously , you can my contact info on the <a href="http://www.openkb.org/about/">about page </a></p>
<p>Below is what I had to do to correct the issue.<br />
1. Perform a entire dump of OF THE databases on the server. Roughly about 2GB of data .<br />
2. Stop the service<br />
3. Move the current mysql data folder to another partition.<br />
Command: mv /var/lib/mysql /home/mysql_backup<br />
4. Recreate the folder /var/lib/mysql<br />
Command: mkdir /var/lib/mysql and then: Chown mysql:mysql /var/lib/mysql<br />
<b> Note: if the permissions are not correct you will receive a error such as &#8220;ERROR! Manager of pid-file quit without updating file.&#8221; </b><br />
5. next you will need to locate and run mysql_install_db<br />
<b> Note: mysql_install_db initializes the MySQL data directory and creates the system tables that it contains, if they do not exist.  </b><br />
6. you may want to add the following to your /etc/my.cnf file<br />
innodb_file_per_table </p>
<p>7. Start the service<br />
8. Enter the mysql console and run each command individually<br />
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;<br />
SOURCE backup.SQL;  < when running this command it may be best to be in the directory when you backed up the mysqldump. or you can specify the path to the file. Replace backup.sql with the actual file name of the dump<br />
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;</p>
<p>9. Restart the service and confirm the data.<br />
Estimated turn around time: 1-2 hours depending on the database size</p>
