    - Disk Imaging for 64 bit Vista Hey gang, Now that I have some important apps and data in my Vista Ultimate 64 bit install, I think the time has come for me to start imaging it. I am dual booting with XP Pro 32 bit, but now find myself rarely going into XP. I used Powerquest's Drive Image, for my XP install on a 80 gb external usb hard drive, I have just purchased and received a new 500 gb WD external usb hard drive. I know Drive Image was gobbled up by Norton, and is now their Ghost program, but I am not a big fan of Symantec products. I am thinking of going with Acronis True Image 11, seems to be a popular imaging program that a lot of folks like. It states it supports Vista, as well as XP 32 and 64 bit, so I assume it will work fine with Vista 64 bit. Just curious what others are using and their thoughts? Also, perhaps a stupid question. As mentioned, I have XP Pro 32 bit along with Vista Ultimate 64 bit installed, on separate hard drives/partitions. Let's say I image all partitions, with True Image, and something happens and I restore all partitions, including the XP partitions, from within Vista. It would restore everything as is , including the dual boot setup right? Thanks, -- Don Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58575

    - Whats the Difference?? RAID 0 Questions: 1. What reading do you recommend regarding RAID 0? I want to get fully locked in on the RAID world and to do this, I need some sources (Reading wise). 2A. This is a little difficult to explain, but here we go. My PC has RAID 0 & 1 ability. The software side "Intel Matrix Storage Console". The paperwork that came with the system states this method to use (Obviously at this point the OS and drivers and all software is already installed). However, when I use this method, I do NOT get the HD's combined (Viewing that is) in my Computer screen or the Computer Management area), but the Intel Matrix Storage Console shows and states they are combined. **This deletes everything from the RAID drives! 2B. When I boot up my PC the RAID controller displays that status of the RAID and all pertinent information. Now if I "DELETE" the RAID created in step 2A and then save and exit and do another Reboot and enter the RAID controller area and CREATE a RAID 0, save and exit. I am than prompted to insert a system disk. I than insert disk 1 of the recovery disks. Once all loaded and finally reach the desktop, ALL drives are ONE drive. NO where is there any reference of the 2nd disk! So this is how it is suppose to look from what I have learned here. Everything works, system is snappier; HOWEVER, I start getting the BSOD! Where I never got them before I am now! The only deduction I can summorize from this is tha the OS is Striped, opposed to being on 1 HD in one specific place as in 2A above. I need some thoughts on this and maybe some helpfull pointers on how to overcome the obstacles as stated in the above questions. Thanks in Advance!! ~~~~ Joey Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58527

    - XP Pro on Dual Xeon can not open many windows I have a new Dell 690 PX with Dual Xeon processors running at 2GHz. I can only open maybe 18 windows and then every new window I try to open does not actually open. Clicking on the icon for Internet Explorer at this timedoes not open IE. However, if I close any open window, I can then open a new window. Any help would be very much appreciated as many people in my department have the same issue.

    - Java Runtime Environment Update Sun (http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp) has updated is Java Runtime Environment. Current version is JR6 Update 6, former was Update 5 Click the "Download" button to the right of "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 6". On the following page select "Windows" as Platform (DO NOT select Windows x64), click on "I Agree.." and press "Continue" button. I usually choose the 15 megabytes file "jre-6u6-windows-i586-p.exe" that allows me to do offline installs. Don't forget to uninstall the previous version of Java via Control Panel. This JRE works with Internet Explorer 32-bit, which happens to be the default IE on x64 systems (XP and Vista). There is still no JRE for IE x64. You WILL find an x64 version of JRE but it doesn't work with IE x64. Carlos Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58500

    - RAID 0 Creating ??? Hello, I was in the process of setting up my 64-Bit PC with RAID 0 when a very disconcerning advisory popped up. It said, "ALL DATA WILL BE LOST"! Now I have done the RAID 0 in the 32-Bit world and never saw that prompt before. Matter of fact, I was able to plug away on my PC while it is being created. So why is it saying that in the 64-Bit world??? Joey Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58489

    - Remote Assistance Error I am having problems with microsoft remote assistance working between two Windows XP machines. I can respond to a remote assistance request just fine. BUT When I send a request to someone else, they receive it fine, but when they try and take control, they receive the error message "remote host name could not be resolved". I checked my Microsoft Windows Firewall Exceptions window and both Remote Assistance and the RA MEssenger are checked to be allowed. What causes this and how can I fix this in a SIMPLE manner? The solution on the Microsoft website is tedious and unacceptable. Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58485

    - Installer Error 1719 - one solution I suddenly became unable to install some applications. Whenever I would try, I would get the following: "Error 1719. The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. ..." The solutions I found in the MS KB were not effective for me. After searching other sites, I found this solution that worked for me. The paths I use assume that Windows is installed in the C:\WINDOWS folder. Change the path to match your installation if necessary. In Registry Editor, navigate to: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSIServer then change the DisplayName value to: C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\msiexec.exe /V Close registry editor, then register the installer by opening a command prompt and running: C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\msiexec.exe /regserver Restart Windows.

    - Does anyone have an diognostic softw for 64bit? I've lots of diagnostic software for WinXP 32bit, Winternals, MiniPE, Hiron...but NOTHING for 64bit Windows xp Pro. And, I currently have a tower with a Stripe RAID Array, 2Gigs memory, ASUS motherboard, etc and when I boot, the system hangs with the mouse arrow displaying on the black desktop. It even moves around, but system will not boot past this point. Help with ideas of what is causing the boot to hang and maybe you know where there is some good 64bit maintenance software that is bootable, CD/DVD or USB.

So with that knowledge and the order placed, I have a question. Can you upgrade the OS (in this case Upgrading HP SP1 to Ultimate SP1) while running a RAID 0 PC? I definately need this one right, because I don;t want to get RAID 0 up and running only to find out next week that I can't loan the new OS due to the RAID 0... So, Guru's, whats the scoop????

    - Won't Upgrade! Hey Everyone, Need some Assistance! I have just purchased the HP m9250F, which comes pre-loaded with Vist HP 64-Bit. I have purchased the Vista Ultimate Upgrade Retail Version.. I have completed ALL updates available for Vista HP. When I tried to Upgrade HP to Ultimate, it would NOT allow me to Upgrade, only to Clean (Not sure if thats the name) install, Upgrade disabled. It suggested that I use a more up to date version and than retry the Upgrade. Not positive if those are the exact words, but 90% correct. What doesn't make sense is that ALL of the updates have been completed and none are pending. So, whats up and how do I fix it? Really don;t want to do a Clean Install, only because I don't know what will or won't work if it done. Awaiting HELP! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Joey Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58421

    - Let's save XP!!! Although this a server newsgroup, you all probably either use Windows XP or Vista as your administration workstation. Therefore I am posting this message here. Microsoft plans to end most sales of Windows XP on June 30, despite a deep reluctance by many business and individuals about moving to Vista. I personally believe Vista has too heavy of a memory and disk space footprint, less snappy performance, and it fails to allow one to go back to the classic look and feel of XP. For instance, what happened to the old fashioned vanilla folders in Explorer? And the lack of an "UP" button in Vista's Explorer as well. (Now why did the have to take that away?)

    - Some questions in XP x64 I've just upgrade my daughter's computer with a AMD Phenom x4, it has a full upgrade and I've purchased and installed a Windows XP x64 that I've fully tested in both of my home computers, everything is working fine except. - SIMS2 (the game) does not properly starts and shutdown itself, after uninstall it I've seen the first blue screen in my live in Xp x64, something wrong with graphic card libraries, is there any safe way to install it, or it is necessary to install a wmware with a XP x32 machine??? or any other tweak?? etc. - I've a Microsoft wireless natural keyboard and mouse, working fine with my other computers, and another one with this last computer, yesterday night was impossible to reconnect the mouse, I'd exchange the batteries and did the reconnect, etc. impossible, and the other problem was that from time to time or I lost the keyboard or it was very lazy, I think that should be something with the transceiver (new set in sight, I think), because I disconnected the mouse and put another one (wired) disconnecting the wireless and no problem wit mouse and keyboard. I'll come back with other issues as soon as they'll come. -- Sl2/Corsair Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58414

    - Is my Windows Server 2003 over Intel Xeon 5150 running in 32 or 64 Hi all, I know that the 32-bits or 64-bits OS version question was asked many times before. Anyway, I googled for the question but did not find any answer which matches my problem. At work, we have a huge problem: we compiled an application under a Windows XP SP2 32-bits OS (build 5.1.2600) and we tried to make it work on a Windows Server 2003 (build 5.2.3790) which runs over a 2x DualCore Intel Xeon 5150, 2000 MHz (6 x 333). Unfortunately, the application is unstable and can crash anywhere in the code whereas it perfectly works unders our 32-bits systems. I checked and my Xeon CPU is a 64-bits one. The OS name is "Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition" (displayed by Lavalys Everest). I read that the build 5.2.3790 is the same as Windows XP x64 so I suppose that my Windows Server 2003 will run in 32-bits over 32-bits CPU and will run in 64-bits mode over 64-bits CPU. => So I suppose, I am running my Windows Server 2003 in 64-bits mode. Could you confirm please ? Sorry but I did not find any reliable way to be sure of this. Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58408

    - Vista 64 Bit - Media Centre & support Folks I have Topfield PVR and it is brilliant albeit getting long in the tooth and would like to replicate its functionality and more in a appropriately provisioned workstation. Given that the Intel Penryn Quad core processors are now available, and the price of 1TB HDDs are falling, its time to jump into a a media centre workstation (I also want to use it for normal computing functions (Office, Project, Visio etc). I'd like to use Vista in its 64 bit mode to overcome the addressing limitations. I am in Australia and we use PAL-B as the television standard and have a myriad of standards for what is called Standard definitiona nd high definition digital TV. I want to use the Intel Q9450 or Q9550 processors for plenty of grunt and headroom - the rest is a greenfield site. I'm looking for recommendations for motherboards that are best suited to the processors and media centre (and to future proof as much as possible); RAIDed terrabyte HDDs - OK on the motherboard or better to have a separate controller; Graphics cards (not a gamer but want good output from the media centre); TV cards (the Topfield can record two channels and playback another at the same time - it'd be nice to be able to record more channels than the two (out here programs never run according to the published schedule!) - it that now possible given the extra processing power of the Quad core processors; and any other recommendations that you'd like to make. I'm also interested in any othe potential 'gotchas' that I should be looking out for - drivers seem to be the thing that scares most people off Looking forward to the collective wisdom Cheers Geoff Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58406

    - Laptop noise Since I intalled Windows Vista Business 64-Bits in my Acer Aspire 5630-6091 I can hear a strange noise (I think from processor). The laptop config is an Intel Core-2-Duo with 1Gb RAM. With Windows XP I didn't have this problem. This is my second laptop with this problem and with the same behavior: only in normal use of Windows. The most stange is when I start Windows Vista in secure mode: the noise stops. In my point of view, this is a problem with drivers of Windows Vista. When I'm in a quite place this noise is horrible. Please, any idea of how can I solve this problem without removing Windows Vista and changing it to Windows XP???? Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58374

    - Vista home premium x64 crashes with no error message or log entry I've been struggling for 2 weeks now to get the x64 version of windows to run properly. It's a clean install with no added software yet. It will run for anywhere between 5 second and 20 hours after reaching the desktop. When it crashes, everything stops immediately except for the mouse pointer, which will continue to function for a few minutes usually. The HD makes no sounds to indicate that it's trying to do anything. When I hit the reset button and it loads up again, I check the error logs and there is nothing there for the time of the crash and no errors leading up to the crash. I have removed all hardware that is not critical to running the system, I've switched out the memory, run every test I can think of from UltimateBootCD, and run any windows diagnostic tool that I can think of. Since the last image before the crash always remains on the monitor, I have tried leaving Task Manager open on processes tab (ordered by CPU usage), and also system monitor with the HD activity expanded. When the crash occurs both the CPU and the HD are operating at very low stress levels and there are no apparent activity spikes. This is a phenom 9600 with 4 GB of OCZ ram, Radeon HD3650 graphics, and a Gigabyte ma78g motherboard. Al of which worked great with the x86 version of XP-SP2. All applicable updates and hotfixes have been installed. Does anyone know of a solution to this? If not, is it possible to exchange my x64 version of Vista for the x86 version? I'd like to stick with Vista, but if I have to go back to XP to get the system stabilized, I will. Thank Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58364

    - Vista upgrade issues Hi I just received a new computer from Dell running vista basic. Everything was going fine until I purchased a vista business edition thru the Education Dept. I installed the business version but somehow I am now running 2 x operating systems - Basic and Business. When the computer boots it asks each time which system to start - basic or business - it does this on a black screen. I have now decided I prefer home basic but don't know how to remove the business operating system - if this is possible?? I don't have great skills with computers but I am learning (the hard way!) If anyone can help I would appreciate it?? Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58308

    - CD Drive Only Reading Windows Disks This might be tough one for you.... I formatted windows with this drive and Installed Office 2007 but it won't read any other cds. These are Driver CDs that I know work because I have used them and they work in other peoples drives. Also the drive is a Plextor and on their site it says that no drivers need to be installed and there are no drivers to install anyway. So what is the deal...

    - Media Player - 32 or 64 bit? Hey gang, This may be a dumb question on my part... I am running Vista Ultimate 64 bit, I know there is a windows media player listed under programs x86, and under just programs. I take it, that is a 32 bit wmp listed under the programs x86, and a 64 bit wmp listed under just programs? So, if I have wmp open, is there an easy way to tell, which one is open from within wmp? Like in IE7, if you click on help and about, it lists the 64 bit version as 64 bit, anything similar in WMP? Thanks, -- Don Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58264

    - SATA RAID 2 with AMCC 9950 SE SATA 2 Conroller in x64 I just made an interesting discovery, after *two years* with my Maxim PC "Dream Machine Plus." I had built an x64 dream server with a Tyan K8WE (S2895) motherboard, Dual Opteron 270s (all I could afford at the time), 8 GB of memory, a *brand new, latest and greatest AMCC 3ware 9950 SE RAID controller, and four new Hitachi drives. This RAID controller was one of the first RAID controllers on the market to support SATA 2 naively. At the time I originally installed the drives.I called Hitachi Global Technologies technical support to make certain that the drives were configured to run in SATA 2 mode. I was assured that they shipped as SATA 2 drives. I proceeded to set up a RAID 5 array. I had always had difficult with finding all four drives powering up properly at boot, and I often had to rebuild my array. As I had a PC Power & Cooling 1 KW power supply, I knew that power was *not* my problem. I just recently learned, by using the log on the controller, that the drives were all running in SATA I mode. Hitachi had been *wrong.* I had to use the "Hitachi Feature Tool" to individually change a setting in *each* of the four drives to set them for SATA II. I was a bit angry that (a) Hitachi had misled me and (b) it took me so long to find out. I am posting to this forum because other users may be unaware that their "SATA 2" drives are actually running at SATA 1. Unless one changes a setting in the drive's BIOS, the drive remains SATA 1. Perhaps there is an easy way to know the SATA setting of the drive, via some sort of Windows utility; but I did not know of one. In the future I will always check in advance.

    - Hard drive problems with winxp x64 This is the story... I recently bought some new parts for an old computer, one of them being a sata drive. I went through the hassle of formatting that and now I have x64 on that drive and it is my primary boot drive. But I have two other drives from the old computer that are IDE. I have them plugged in one as master and one as slave. All three hardrives show up on device manager and disk manager. But the slave IDE drive, 300gb, is not showing up on "my computer", and in disk manager it says that it is unallocated. This hard drive was slave to the other IDE drive with my old set up and work perfectly fine. I used a certain disk recovery program to look at the hard drive and it says that it still has all the old files. Now the other drive, the Master IDE says that it is only 31.4 gbs and has nothing on it. It is an 80gb drive and it has the old winxp x32bit on it and other files, probably about 40gbs worth. But the catch is when I try to boot up with that drive it says that it is corrupt. When I ran the same recovery program it says that the partition seems too small. What the hell is going on... And how can i fix this with out losing all of my files... Tag: LG GGC-H20L Blu-ray Drive in x64 Tag: 58243

I am thinking of adding a LG GGC-H20L to my x64 system. I already
have two Plextor DVD drives, but they are IDE and the LG is SATA.

Has anyone had experience with Blu-ray software in x64, and with this
LG drive in particular. The drive is only $180.00 at NewEgg.com with
free shipping.

Thank you!

Sounds OK, as long as you understand that it does not write to blu-ray discs
but only reads them.

Colin,

That's ok with me. The Blu-ray burners are too expensive for me, and
they don't write very fast anyway. I'd like to be able to say I saw a
movie in Blu-Ray. I have a SCSI tape for backup.

BTW, it turns out LSI didn't release a Vista 64 driver for my onboard
SCSI, so I will be sticking with x64 until the end. <g> Or at least
nobody on the Tyan forum or at Tyan technical support told me where I
could find a Vista 64-bit driver for the chip. I did find an x64
driver for it on LSI's website.

I think you and I built our x64 machines around the same time. My
270s are fairly lame by today's standard, but I'm not about to buy any
new memory, and I don't do anything which is that processor intensive
anyway.

I have upgraded the video card, so it should be fine for Blu-ray.

Thanks for answering!

Jim
