No further prerequisite checking rules can be evaluated on the specified system. Setup cannot continue. Cause This is usually the case when 8.3 name creation has been disabled via GPO or the registry [ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation=1] . Desktop (and Server) administrators do this to help performance when accessing NTFS. Per the MS KB ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/121007 ), allowing 8.3 file names and directories ‘may’ decrease directory enumeration performance....

Internet Explorer 9 is the fastest, most secure iteration of IE yet!  Unfortunately, some companies are not ready to deploy it into production or are in a testing phase.  In environments with System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) you may have cases where an administrator accidentally rolled out IE 9 via SCCM’s Software Updates.  In this scenario you may need to uninstall IE9 and reinstall at a later time.  But how do you go about removing IE9 from systems? I have seen various ways to do this with SCCM, and I am a fan of simple solutions.  Microsoft has provided a Microsoft Fix It link within this article:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2579295#phrss .  The awesome part is that the link runs an MSI.  MSI installers are a perfect item to package up in SCCM for easy distribution!
