At a school where I recently installed 7 Linux boxes and 3 Windows ones, they
had a power failure yetserday.

All the Linux ones have come back on line OK.  All the Windows ones refuse to
log onto the network - all the networks settings are thee but they don't want
to play anymore.  Without any decent logs on Windows, and because everything is
registry base (instead of text file based) I can't figure out the problem.  Far
easier to reinstall the network drivers.


Linux is cool, Windows is not.
