Windows: Windows update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running.

Doh… don’t screw around with your registry. Click on “Change settings” and well, change settings and try again. Guess object appeared closer than it really was, huh?

Windows: Cannot team Broadcom NetXtreme adapters. Please select an adapter with NDIS 6 driver error.

by on Nov.08, 2011, under Networking, Windows

This is most likely caused by software firewall, such as Symantec EndPoint Protection or Vipre Enterprise. Disabling them usually won’t help either. You will have to uninstall the firewall and then attempt to team your adapters. If that didn’t work uninstall both firewall and BASP, install BASP, team and then reinstall your firewall.

Debian: Squeeze cannot load Broadcom LAN drivers bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-5.0.0.j3.fw

by on Oct.11, 2011, under Debian, Linux

You may run into a window asking you to provide the bnx2/bnx2-mips-09-5.0.0.j3.fw package to continue installation. Don’t freak out, visit this link and download the deb package from a mirror. Copy the package to a USB drive AND DO NOT EXTRACT THE .FW FILES, COPY THE DEB PACKAGE ONLY. INSTALL WILL EXTRACT WHAT IT NEEDS ACCORDINGLY and then click continue.

Windows: Windows Media Player encountered a problem creating or saving the playlist.

by on Mar.29, 2011, under Windows

Might probably  happen in other situations too, but my situation was that I did not want to add a folder to my Music Library to avoid having WMP sift through tons of untagged stuff… and deleted my default folders. Therefore WMP did not have a default location to save the playlists to.

Simply add a default location. Good luck.
