Peugeot 307 Inside Light when unlocking Car

January 10th, 2012 No comments

Not really a computer tip but a car related one.

The light inside my car stopped coming on when I unlocked the car / opened the doors.

To get it to work again you have to hold the light button for 3 seconds whilst having the ignition turned to on.

Handy tip.

Symantec Endpoint Losing connection to console

December 20th, 2011 No comments

If you install Symantec Endpoint Protection Management console and get the error :

The Java Virtual Machine has exited with a code of -1, the service is being stopped

Set the authentication properties of the symantec site to integrated windows authentication. Also set Authenticated users full control on C:\program files\symantec

Restart the services. Good to go
