Those little yellow minions from The Despicable Me movies are very popular here, nevet. Even if you are too short or ugly for traditional modelling/acting work, and disinclined to lower yourself to teaching, walking up and down with a sandwich board dressed as one of those would be a solid career option, I'm sure.
Thanks very much blobbles. It does basically confirm my ideas about what we need to do, but I'm struggling with the XP/win mix, and trying to do things on Chinese operating systems with no English language option. Up to now it's been a case of setting things up on the English win 7 PC, replicating things on a Chinese win 7, and then hoping for the best amidst a raft of printouts on the XPs - not the greatest working method!
I will get a copy of Win server I think and start from the beginning again.
If anyone could point me in the direction of the network expert who advertised previously I would be much obliged. I am just a humble teacher!
Thanks to you for the reply. I'm not sure what you mean though. I should have been clearer. We have one PC running Win7 in English, and several more have Chinese Win XP or Win 7 without an English language option. I need to link these together with a database server. We currently have all linked to the internet, some linked to a printer, and none linked together!
(The Win 7 32 version of Office in English is to put on the English Win7 PC so that at least one PC in our school is fully English - a bit of a separate issue.)
No-one can help? Never mind. And never mind the thread bump either.
Looks like hours toiling over a hot Chinese PC with a translator and Microsoft help site on full alert. Trial and error, be my friend!
Still looking for English version of W7 MSOffice 2013, but may have found an (unfortunately) full price download version.
Quck question - Could anyone recommend a computer expert able to set up and connect 9 or 10 mixed windows PCs to a file server?
We aren't having much luck at the moment - our computer 'expert' seemed to run out of 'expertise' past installing a DVD-ROM drive.
Also, anyone who knows where to get hold of a copy of MS Office 2013 32 bit for Win 7 will be rewarded with countless riches*.
*in a future life.
Many thanks.
