    - Managed C++ I was wondering if there is a catch when you use a win32 compiled Managed C++ asssembly on XP 64bit. (2.0 Framework) My app runs on 32 bit systems fine! But it says that there is a BadImageFormatException when I try to run it on XP 64bit. It doesn't matter if the application is compiled for an x64 system or the standard 'mixed platforms'. I realize I am basically saying, "It doesn't work." Therefore, I am specifically asking if you can use a win32 Managed C++ assembly on XP 64bit. I didn't see an option to compile a Managed C++ project for x64. Tag: AVG Tag: 17077

    - Install XP Pro 32bit OEM on XP Pro 64bit OEM, and dual boot OK, I know this kind of thread has been thrashed to death, but I have yet to find one that addresses my particular situation. If you think there is a thread/FAQ/tutorial that addresses my Q's, then please point me in the right direction! Current setup: System model: AWRDACPI BIOS version: Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG OS: Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP Professional x64 Edition (5.2.3790, SP1) Disk 0: C (primary), D (no array) Disk 1: E (primary), F (no array) MS Windows XP Pro 64bit is running on the C partition. Applications/data have been installed through Windows onto the C, D and F partitions. Desired setup: Install MS Windows XP Pro 32bit on the E partition (seperate physical disk to the 64bit OS install). I would then be able to dual boot, running MS Windows XP Pro in either 32 or 64bit. Problems/Q's/Other: 1. How do I go about installing MS Windows XP Pro 32bit? (step by step guide would be nice, but general tips are OK). Can this be done through Windows 64bit? Using PowerQuest PartitionMagic 8.0? (note I have a separate license for each version) 2. When I dual boot, will I be able to 'see' the primary partitions of the other MS Windows XP Pro install? eg. based on current setup, would I be able to see the C partition if MS Windows XP Pro 32bit is booted from the E partition? 3. Would installing applications/configuring hardware from MS Windows XP Pro 32bit from the E partition cause any impact to existing installs/configurations on other partitions? 4. Will my actions in getting the desired setup as described place my data at increased risk (loss/corruption etc)? Tag: AVG Tag: 17076

    - Server 2003 x64 slow networking with wireless clients I've got Windows Server 2003 x64 eval wired to a home router/network. Wired connections to the server work as expected, but wireless connections are painfully slow. I'm talking like dialup slow. Windows reports the speed at 1 Mbps, but I think that is generous. It's not the network. The wirelss clients can connect to one another or to another wired client, and speeds are normal (54 Mbps). Anybody got any ideas? Tag: AVG Tag: 17049

    - Question to Acer Ferrari 4000 Owners Sorry for being slightly off topic (it still has to do with Win64 though). Ok, so on my desktop I have now gone 64 bits 100%, (no dual boot to 32 bit what so ever), and everything works flawlessly. I now want to do the same on my laptop and Iam thinking of getting an Acer Ferrari 4000. I know there are a couple of guys/girls here using that laptop. I will be using the laptop for presentations and I just wonder if Fn-F5 to send output to external projector works with whatever video drivers there are for the 4000 and xp64? I'm asking 'cause I saw somewhere else someone having problem with the 4000 and doing this (this was with Vista Server though). Thanks!! Niels Tag: AVG Tag: 17016

    - Game port not recognized by Win XP 64bit Hello, I recently built a really nice machine based on the Asus A8N SLI Deluxe motherboard. I added an AMD 64 Athlon X2 CPU and Windows XP 64 bit. This latter one probably being the cause of my problem but there may be a simple solution out there that I don't know about. So here's the problem: this motherboard comes with a USB/MIDI attachment that has a game port on it (2 USB ports and 1 MIDI/Game port). I installed the attachment and connected an old MS sidewinder joystick to the gameport but the system does not seem to recognize it. I looked at the device manager and it says that no drivers are installed for this device. I downloaded the latest Realtek drivers from the ASUS website but no luck there either. Does anyone know if there are drivers out there that would allow me to use my old joystick? If not, I guess I'll have to get a USB joystick. Thanks, D. Castano Tag: AVG Tag: 16985

    - Printer Driver... Hello, Apologies if this question has already been asked. I have a Lexmark X1180 printer and when I attempt to install the XP driver (had to have a go!), I receive the following error message: "The Image file C:\Lxk1100\drivers\WIN_XP2K\ENGLISH\Setup.exe is valid, but is for a machine type other than the current machine" I emailed Lexmark and received the following reply regarding drivers for XP-64: "Regarding the error message you are receiving: Unfortunately the X1180 does not have a 64bit driver and there are no plans on making drivers for the 64bit Operative System for that printer." Does this mean that I can never use this printer for XP-64 ? Clayton Tag: AVG Tag: 16975

    - Out of TIME! Out of LUCK! So, I went to buy the full version of XP 64. DUMB ME. I opted to try it out before I bought it. Now my trial is up. And when I went in to buy a copy, I learn that the NEW OEM purchase requirements are FULL SYSTEM ONLY! I don't need a full system. I asked for clarification. I can't get a new dual corp CPU? No. Microsoft declaired that this OEM software is only available with 'COMPLETE SYSTEM PURCHASE!' So, if anyone has a solution short of Linux, I'd love to hear it. Tag: AVG Tag: 16959

    - Getting memory layout info on Itanium ? Does anyone know how to establish the number of free memory slots in an Itanium server running 64-bit Windows Enterprise Edition (apart from physically open the server to check on free slots)? We think the memory is made up from 3 x 8GB quads but cannot be sure. Is there a command available that can be run on the server to show the actual memory layout? There are commands to do this from Unix, so we know the hardware is capable of reporting this level of detail to the OS, we're just not aware of a command to issue in Windows to get this info.

    - Solidworks 2005 WORKS under x64...more inside Ok after many weeks of trials and errors i FINALLY got my copy of Solidworks 2005 to work on x64,i saw many people asking if SW 2005 works under x64,i was one of those people who said no,but now ill explain how to make it work (this goes for the original discs of SW 2005,if you are trying to make it work with something illegal,dont come here to complain that it ain't working) : SW 2005 support x64 from SP 3.1 and beyond. - First Take out the plug. - Second you need to download HASP Device Driver which can be downloaded from here: http://www.aladdin.co.il/support/hasp/hasp4/enduser.asp The file is called H4_hinstall.zip - Unzip the content of that zip,then go to Start-> Run,drag hinstall.exe into the Run box and add SPACE -i at the end. - Now install SW 2005 SP0 from your discs. (you will still get an error on its last disc,ignore it). - When its done installing,update your copy of SW 2005 with SP 5.0 (or eariler versions,but keep in mind that you must have at least SP 3.1) - After its done updating your SP 5.0,go to add/remove programs in your Control Panel and do a repair for SW 2005. - Insert your plug back in,now Solidworks 2005 should work fine. * I even installed SW 2006 and both of them are working together like a charm (SW 2006 installs fine,no need of any tweaking). * This little tweak came from the Solidworks support,its not my doing.

    - Itanium vs Opteron Dual Core Hello again. Can somebody please enlighten me in terms of how the Itanium is likely to compare with Opteron dual core? I know the Itanium will run HPUX as well as Windows, and I know the Itanium is pricey! I am not thinking of desktop use here, but just for SERVER use : * ignoring the HPUX support, are there decent reasons to consider Itanium? My gut feel is no, but what do I know? * when running Windows are there discernable performance reasons to go with one over the other? * since Itanium has a different software build for the OS, I presume it also needs different 64 bit application (server) builds; I notice SQL has an Itanium variant. Is this correct? * presumably any true .NET applications are platform independant; true? * is it 'believed' that MS will continue to support Itanium with any 64 bit builds in the long term? My fear is a repeat of the 'NT' ALPHA/MIPS/PowerPC scenario which occured early in 32 bit support... most processors no longer supported. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this.

    - Workaround - DOS under Windows 64bit Hello I am a s/w developer and I think it's time I had a 64 bit desktop; partly so we can produce applications for this platform, partly so we can support our (32bit) applications on a 64bit platform (inevitably our customers will do this some time soon...) I'm likely to go for a new PC with Pentium or Xeon and EM64T; (I want HT capability and am not prepared to pay the current premium for dual-core processor on a desktop...) The trouble is we still develop and support text-only DOS (!) applications. This is fine under W2K, WinXP... but I realise not so under 64bit. So, as a workaround I though I could run up Virtual PC on my desktop, and run up Windows 2000, XP, or even plain DOS. Does this sound a reasonable workaround? Are there any caveats I should look out for? I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks. -- Clive Crocker CMC Communication Systems Ltd Tag: AVG Tag: 16884

    - Opteron or Athlon 64, Which is better? I am in the process of evaluating Windows XP64 and the 64 bit capabilities of the new processors. Basically, I run a lot of stuff on my workstation during the day and my system is SLOOOOOOW. I am going to use this machine for business and I need to be able to do administration from the machine. (RDP is fine, MMC with Remote Desktops to multiple servers). I am going to spend a few bucks on a system and I want to be able to use it for VMWare to set up lab servers so I want a lot of RAM although I do not think I will need mroe than 4GB (unless I am way off on my assessment). I am setting it up as a workstation which I will use daily. I will test our applications and drivers and hardware so I want something which I will not have TOO much trouble finding drivers for so I plan to build or buy a machine which I know will have hardware currently compatible with XP64. I have looked at Alienware's site and I noticed that if I choose a Athlon 64 system (4800+) then I am only able to choose XP Pro (32 bit). With their Opteron systems, I can get XP64 but a much slower CPU for around the same price (a dual core is an extra $1200) I want a high performance system which I am not gonig to run games on. I don't mind limiting myself as far as drivers go. I do run Linux from time to time, and I am assuming that there are NO issues with Linux drivers, right? LOL I am sure the Linux-only guys will say so. I figure if I spec the system to run Windows XP64 then it should run Linux just as easily or better. I will probably run Windows primarily instead of Linux just so I can run MMC and Agent 3.0 natively. I can always put Linux in a VM. Anyone have advice (Duron or Athlon)? How do the speeds compare?

    - Virtual Server 2005 on 64bit and Opteron Dual Core I've just read an article at redmondmag.com that says that once Virtual Server 2005 runs on 64bit Windows (it's in beta now, apparently) although it will run on AMD Opteron Dual Core CPUs it will not "recognize or use the second processor core". I'm trying to understand this. If Windows is willing to use both cores, why would one of its client threads (in this case, Virtual Server) not be able to run on the "second core"?

    - Can't copy files to mounted partition on XP 64 Hello I have a 50GB partition dedicated for Program Files (x86). On my C: disk is an empty folder 'Program Files (x86)'. Using disk manager I mount this partition to this folder, and everything seems to work OK. However, when I try to copy SOME files I get this error: Cannot copy <filename>: Cannot find the specified file. Make sure you specify the correct path and file name. For example, I'm unable to install Visual Studio, copying some plain text files fails, while .dlls from the same original and same destination directory copy OK, etc. If I access the 'Program Files' partition through the drive letter, everything works fine. Also, everything is fine if I unmount the partition and copy to the directory. It seems to be related to the files from CDs, but sometimes the files from the HD also show this problem. This is not random behavior, it's always the same files that don't copy. Also, the same happens with other partitions and other mount points. It happens even if I copy the file from the CD to the HD, and then try to copy the same file to the dir with the mounted partition. THe same happens with the 'Copy of <filename>'.

    - a general question about 64bit programs is a program supposed to run faster when it is built for x64 system? i can configure my visual studio to build programs targeting 64bit windows, but if i do not write any code different from those in 32bit program, is there supposed to be any difference in performance? and also, what benefits do developers get? 64bit integer? any differences in float point computation? -- Echevil Tag: AVG Tag: 16806

    - Wait for Norton stuff next year The Norton products such as Norton Antivirus and Internet security 2006 won't work with xp x64 and there is no prospect of a norton firewall or antivirus for 64 bit until vista comes out. http://www.symantec.com/sabu/nis/nis_pe/sys_req.html Sorry. Symantec doesn't see xp x64 as a consumer operating system. William Walker Tag: AVG Tag: 16793

    - Wireless USB Adapters: A Probable List Of Supported Brands I just installed a Linksys Wireless-G USB adapter (model WUSB54G) in my Win x64 box, and it installed right from the git go. I just connected Linksys, booted Win x64, and directed the driver installer to the directory where I had extracted the Ralink drivers. The thing picked up my access point right away. This is version 4 of the Linksys Wireless-G USB adapter. I have had version 1 for a long time before my Win x64 install, and it does not work under Win x64. There is no way for one to tell from the box which version of Linksys Wireless -G USB adapter that is inside. I bought my Wireless-G from Buy.com, so I guess they don't have earlier versions. Note that, in the .inf file that comes with the Ralink drivers, there is a list of other brands of wireless USB adapters that uses the Ralink chipset and probably works in Win x64. I say "probably works" because I really don't know. The string of letters and numbers, like "VID_148F&PID_9020", are the numbers you will find under the Details tab of the Properties of a device in the Windows Device Manager. The VID for my Linksys that shows up in Device Manager is the exact same one as the very last one on this page. I do not know if any brand of wireless USB adapter listed below, other than the Linksys models, can be found or purchased in the US or elsewhere. As a general proposition, unproven by me, if the manufacturer or brand listed below has a wireless USB adapter (a 802.11g unit), it probably has a Ralink chipset and, accordingly, will work in Win x64 using Ralink's 64bit drivers.
