If a serious problem develops with Apache, you are free to try to fix it on the lab machines. You may also remove and reinstall it. back to top Reimaging the Workstation As a last resort, you may reimage the lab workstation. Instructions are on the floppy disk found with each workstation. You need to insert the floppy disk and reboot. After Windows starts, type win2k at the command prompt. This starts the reimaging process, which completes automatically. After imaging process completes, remove the floppy and reboot the system. Please remember to put the floppy disk back into the plastic pocket. back to top Home | WebCT | Announcements | Schedule | Expectations | Syllabus | Help | FAQ's | HowTo's | Links Last Updated: 7/16/2003 4:45:33 PM
