Mandatory laptop inventory check

The mandatory laptop inventory check began last Thursday, March 15th continuing through March 31st. This year's inventory check will be conducted online taking less than five minutes to complete.

The inventory check must be completed on the Sacred Heart issued laptop while being on campus. The website is http://it.sacredheart.edu/laptopcheck/.

"The laptop inventory check is the annual inventory of all of the mobile assets," said Leslie Roggen, Mobile Computing Services Manager.

"The laptop inventory check is required by the leasing company. We have to account yearly for the laptops on the various leases," said Roggen.

This year, the mandatory inventory laptop check has been changed from a paper format in previous years given in SC07 including a laptop scan to an online procedure.

"We went to an online check to make it easy and painless for everyone," said Roggen.

According to the Mobile Computing Services if you get an error message about the wrong version of Microsoft .net framework when trying to complete the laptop inventory check go to the link below which will take you to the Microsoft .net framework 2.0 webpage (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0856eacb-4362-4b0d-8edd-aab15c5e04f5&displaylang=en).

The whole process takes approximately six minutes. After this .net is installed, Mobile Computing Services says it is ready to run the inventory check again.

If a message is received that the inventory check can not be completed online, go to SC 07 (basement level) to see Jimi Dennis or Jen Momplaisir for additional help.

The inventory check page and the Microsoft page must be completely closed so the .net can be installed.

For all rising juniors who will be full-time undergraduate students in the fall, the Monday of Labor Day weekend is when the refresh process will be held.
