If you receive a message that an unspecified error has occurred when attempting to activate office 2010 or you receive a message that you need to be an administrator even though you are one. You may need to run a repair of the office install. After the repair process is complete, restart the computer and the activation will be successful the next time you run an office program.

This seems to happen if your computer came with Windows Live pre-installed and you join it to the domain, or if you install Internet Explorer 10 via group policy. Search for *.sqm files and delete all that you find and you should be able to log in.

If your computer had Windows Live pre-installed before being added to the domain delete this file:
C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi\SqmData720896_00.sqm

If you deployed IE10 delete this file:

C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\SQM\iesqmdata_setup0.sqm

To bypass this error message when trying to install the printer and scanner drivers from CD you must log in to a local user account with admin privileges.

This post is provided as is without warranty and confers no rights. These steps assume you have not made any major/custom changes to the sharepoint configuration. Always make sure you have a backup before making major changes to a server.

Before trying any of these steps try restarting the windows internal database and performing an iisreset first.

Delete the sharepoint central administration from IIS.

Run the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard

Remove the newly created sharepoint database in central administration (ShareWebDb)

Detach the Sharepoint database from SQL mangement studio (ShareWebDb)

Attach the Sharepoint database in SQL management studio (ShareWebDb) from the other location if you moved the database.

Add the old sharepoint database from sharepoint central administration (ShareWebDb)

“C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\BIN\stsadm.exe” -o addcontentdb -url http://server/ -databasename ShareWebDb

Data for companyweb is stored here by default:
C:\Windows\SYSMSI\SSEE\MSSQL.2005\MSSQL\DATA\ShareWebDb.mdf

Transaction Log:

C:\Windows\SYSMSI\SSEE\MSSQL.2005\MSSQL\DATA\ShareWebDb_log.ldf

Restart Windows internal database

Restart iis by iisreset command.

After you complete this process you may need to perform the following in an administrative command prompt:

“C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web server extensions\12\BIN\psconfig” -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force

You may also want to rename the site in IIS to SBS Sharepoint.
