Today Microsoft released System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2 SP1. Serivce Pack 1 for Virtual Machine Manager enable the new features from Windows Server 2008 SP1 or Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 SP1 like Dynamic Memory and RemoteFX.
This Guide shows you how you can upgrade System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2 to Service Pack 1.
I just installed two new HP ProLiant DL360 G6 with Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2. Everything worked fine until I installed the HP Support Pack which includes Drivers and Firmware for the HP Server.
After I installed the HP ProLiant Support Pack one of my Network Interfaces could not start. I got the following error in the Device Manager:
HP NC382i DP Virtual Bus Device
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
I tried to uninstall the device and rebooted the server but this didn’t work. I had still the same error.
The problem was that just uninstalling the driver does not work, you also have to check the checkbox on “Delete the driver software for this device.”
After doing that you can rescan for new hardware and the system will find this adapter again and everything will work fine.
Since I work more and more with Windows 7 I had a look at Microsoft OneNote 2010. Before I used Evernote and I was happy with it. But as I saw OneNote and startet using it, I can’t think being without it. There are alot of features I really love and OneNote 2010 is really nice integrated into Windows 7 and the Office products.
So if you wish to migrate from Evernote to Microsoft OneNote 2010 you can do that in diffrend ways.

Btw. Microsoft released also OneNote for iPhone
This shows you how you can search in files for a specific content with Windows Powershell. This “replaces” the Windows command-line utility “findstr”. In the Unix/Linux world you mostly use the command grep for doing the same.
grep syntax
grep (options) files.txt
grep example
grep "text I search" *.log
In Windows Powershell we can use the Select-String to search strings in files
Select-String -Path C:\temp\*.log -Pattern "Contoso"
If you need some more options, for example you need also check subfolders (-Recurse) or you need additional filter for files you wanna check, you can use the Get-Childitem first.
Get-ChildItem C:\temp -Filter *.log -Recurse | Select-String "Contoso"
If you have to copy all the files with a specific content, you can simply add a Copy-Item cmdlet.
Get-ChildItem C:\temp -Filter *.log -Recurse | Select-String "Contoso" | Copy-Item -Destination C:\temp2
