OpenVPN & Windows 7

By Tuinslak in Errors, Networking, Software, Windows

There’s a great GUI out for OpenVPN & Windows, located here. However, this GUI includes an old OpenVPN, that is no longer compatible with Windows 7 and Windows Vista. The TUN/TAP driver will be blocked due to compatibility issues, and when trying to connect to a VPN, you’ll get an error along the lines of: [...]

Windows 7 + iPhone tethering

By Tuinslak in Networking, Windows, iPhone

If Apple was so kind to give you tethering (and didn’t silently remove it after an update), or if you just happen to have enabled it using, let’s say, the alternative method. And you happen to be forced to use Windows, and you really are tired of XP, and Vista surely isn’t an option; you’re [...]

Hamachi: Failed to connect to the engine

By Tuinslak in Errors, Software, Windows

Hamachi is auto started, at boot, because we have a shortcut in the [...]

HP ProtectTools and Windows 7

By Tuinslak in Errors, Hardware, Software, Windows

If you’re having troubles using HP ProtectTools and Windows 7, you’ll probably using an outdated version of ProtectTools. Eventhough HP tells you this is the latest version for your notebook.

Windows update error 80070005

By Tuinslak in Errors, Windows

This is usually an error due to incorrect rights on certain files on your system. In my case, Windows 2008, as domain controller, I was added to the “Domain Guests” group. Make sure you’re not member of that group, and reboot. This should fix the problem.

iPhone Crashlogs

By Tuinslak in Mac, Windows, iPhone

This one, I’ve taken from the Brightkite iPhone beta Google Group. This should help several people who aren’t yet privy to this information.

By Tuinslak in Games, Windows

Which reminds me, and I guess I’m late again with posting, but you can get a free Red Alert (yes, *the* original) @ the EA website. Yes, they actually give out free stuff too (the thieves!). But don’t forget, it’s no more than a commercial stunt to get you to preorder Red Alert 3. Go [...]
