    - Window refresh still doesn't work Pardon me if this is an old subject. I was disappointed to find that in WindowXP File Explorer, with files viewed as either Tiles or Icons, F5 (refresh) does not re-sort files by name. I was even more disappointed to find that it still doesn't work in XP64. Steps to recreate: In any explorer window with some files, select Arrange Icons By - Auto Arrange by Name and View as either Icons or Tiles. Files should be in alph. order. Drag a file or two out of order and press F5. Every Windows release prior to XP would put file back in order. Why is this still broke? Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7203

    - =?Utf-8?Q?IntelliMouse=C2=AE_Explorer_Not_xp64_?= Hello, I purchased a new 670 workstation with xp64 bit from Dell for my CG studies. I also decided on the IntelliMouseÂ® Explorer after researching for comfort and pracitality: http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseandkeyboard/productdetails.aspx?pid=003 Attempted to install the mouse software, and my system tells me that the mouse software is not supported by xp64bit??? I tried to check the website for updated software downloads, upon attempting to install the download, I got the same incompatibility error. I threw the box away becasue I didn't not anticipate a error like this since this mouse is very new. I was also trying to get support here: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?med=online&prid=3911&trl=so&enty=pid&gprid=35454&ln=en-us&c1=502&as=1 But it form won't except my PIN number for my mouse. I would appreciated any advice on where to proceed from here Thanks MouseSnob Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7197

    - USB\Ethernet ADSL Modem Just a question. I posted a previouse message regarding a D-Link DSL302g USB\ETH modem I could not find drivers for. I use this modem via USB. If I changed that to Ethernet would it then not require drivers??? Please help, as I love x64 and this is the only issue I have come across as yet.

    - Printing to PDFs -- any way? Adobe doesn't support this OS fully in Acrobat. Nearly all of their software that I've tried works (CS 2 and AfterEffects), but the PDF Printer Driver will not install. This is confirmed on Adobe's knowledge base. Does anyone know of way to work around this? Also -- if you are an Acrobat user please go to Adobe's suggestion box... and request this feature.

    - D-Link DSL 302g Driver I have just got Windows XP Pro x64 Ed, and it installed like a dream, all my drives IDE and SATA\RAID, My sound and display drivers are looking better than they did on XP 32bit. The only problem is that my ADSL modem DLINK DSL302g do not have any drivers out for x64, nor do I think they will in the future. So now I am stuck with a ADSL modem (connected via USB) that wont work, so I am forced to go back to 32bit XP if I want to use the internet etc..... Could someone please let me know if there are any ways around this issue or do I need to get another modem that does support x64??? What brands currently support x64????? Any information would be very helpful. Regards, Sten Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7174

    - X64 on Acer 5002 aspire laptop I just got this laptop today (really cheap too) http://global.acer.com/products/notebook/as5000.htm it has an AMD 64 ML-30 turion processor at 1.6ghz but it comes with windows xp home. I was a bit skeptical when I bought it because nobody seemed to be using xp64 on it. The 80gb hd comes in two fat 32 partitions, I installed xp64 on the second one (converted to ntfs). Installation was smooth and uneventful. The hardware on laptop was broadcom 802.11g network adapter -> still searching for drivers Realtek AC`97 audio -> I found and installed the 64bit drivers Texas Instruoments PCI-1410 cardbus -> drivers installed by xp64 Sis 900 based pci-fast ethernet -> drivers installed by xp64 Slimtype DVDRW SOSW-833S -> drivers installed by xp64 SIS M760GX (graphics) -> to my surprise sis had a 64bit driver for it! yay :) http://www.sis.com/download and follow the step by step. Agere Systems AC`97 modem -> don't use it, so don't care. So the Acer Aspire 5002WLMI can run xp64 if anyone wanted to know. I heard the 5020 was a better laptop tho, I think it uses an x700 graphics card Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7173

    - No internet access I recently installed Windows x64 without problem and now have a dual boot system with XP Pro on a separate partition. At first the internet connection worked fine on both OS's but now I cannot connect when using x64 (although still OK on XP Pro). I connect via a Belkin ADSL wireless router which can find the network (but not connect to the internet) when using manual settings but cannot find the network when using automatic connection (cannot rtenew IP adddress). The manual settings I have used for X64 are the same as those used (and which work) for XP pro: IP Address: 192.168.2.3 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 192.168.2,1 DNS Server 192.168.2.1 Any help with this problem would be appreciated.

    - Oracle ODBC Driver for Win XP 64 I need an oracle ODBC driver to connect a Windows XP 64 desktop to an Oracle 9i database running on a Windows 2000 Server. I have tried MDAC 2.8 SP1 install but it wouldn't run in Win XP 64. I also tried MDAC 2.8 and MDAC 2.7 SP1; they installed but when you go into Data Sources (ODBC) drivers tab only the SQL Server driver Lists. I went to Oracle site and downloaded and installed Oracle ODBC for RDB 3.1.0.2.0; Install appeared successful but no Oracle Driver lists in the Data Sources (ODBC) drivers tab. In the past I have always just installed MDAC and the Oracle Driver was there. Is there an Oracle ODBC driver from Microsoft or Oracle for Win XP 64? If so, is there some trick to make the ODBC driver installed show up under the drivers tab? Thank you. Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7113

    - Is It Legal? Is it legal for someone to sell XP corporate to an individual on an auction site? It seems like an inexpensive way to load XP on a bunch of your home PCs. Not sure of the legalities though. I know there was a copy going around a few years ago that didn't need activation but it was a pirated copy and the cd key was killed off soon after its release.

    - When the TAP Disk Arrives (Hey, somebody wake up the old guy in the corner burning those cd's). Once we do our clean install and register/activate what will happen to the 32 bit system...assuming it is an actively running OS. Will it just blow up, stop booting or some sort of New and Improved "BSOD". How will those in power find the OS? By CD-Key? Suppose I acquired another OEM copy of XP Pro, could I just change the CD-Key or would I have to do another clean install? Just thinking ahead, trying to be proactive... Again, being an optomist, I am assuming the TAP will be shipped some time this millennia :) Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7064

    - WIN PE for x64 with 32-Bit Environment Hello, I have successfully manufactured my WinPE-CD for x64 with 64-Bit Kernel and the Additional Components like ADO, HTA and WSH. It works fine. But from an earlier WINPE 32-Bit I use customised tools based on 32-Bit ( with 32-Bit-Dll's) Is there a chance to emulate the 32-Bit environment on the x64 Win PE as it is on the finished Win XP x64 Installation? (SYSWOW64) If yes, what to do? Which Dll's must be loaded, on which way the setup.hiv has to manipulate? What else to do? I know, the easier way is to compile the necessary Dll's to 64-Bit, but i haven't the sources. Many thanks, best regards, Joachim Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7063

    - Lose data? I have a RAID 0 array which i currently have partitioned and managed to install the Windows x64 beta on a while ago, but I'm just wondering if when I try to install the full Windows x64 will it try and erase the entire array again? As when i installed the trial, it deleted all the partitions on there and all my data was unrecoverable. Or is it possible to get it to reformat JUST that one partition that the trial is on and install on that?? Backing up 300GB is not really an option, btw, as i don't have enough money for another set of disks atm. Thanks Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7053

I upgraded the video driver on the PC and now it appears that there isn't an mpeg 2 decoder and it's needed to play back tv shows that I've recorded on tivo that are transferred to my laptop. If I can't get an mpeg 2 decoder to work right now with this video driver, then I may just uninstall the most recent video driver and see if "tivo to go" will work again.

    - Setting onboard soundcard to 6 channel Hi All, I'm running Windows XP x64 quite nicely on my system. The motherboard is an MSI K8N SLI Platinum edition. The only problem I am having is with the onboard soundcard (Creative Live 24-bit). It does support all the way up to 8 channel sound, but I can't find a way to set it. The issue seems to be that the supplied software for the board (DigiCell or something like that) won't run correctly on XP x64, and there are no BIOS settings or anything that can be set. As such, I'm stuck with only 2 channel sound, and I really want to set it to 6 channel. Anyone know of a work-around? I contacted MSI, and they basically gave me the brush-off. Cheers & thanks, Brendan. Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 7019

    - Intel's Celeron takes the 64-bit route Intel released a 64-bit processor for mainstream PCs on Monday, putting the company a month ahead of rival AMD, which is expected to come out with a chip of the same capacity in July. Intel's new Celeron D 351 is the heir-apparent to the current Celeron D S775 processor series. The two chips are nearly identical, apart from the addition of 64-bit processing technology, which Intel calls EM64T.

    - Technology Advancement Program - Issues I have been trying since the program has been running and even as of 15 minutes ago, I am still being given the following error: COA/PID entered is invalid. Please email Customer Service at ms64bitupgrade@productorder.com ***** As prompted back in May, I e-mailed ms64bitupgrade@productorder.com with the error and my PID. The following day, I received this response: "COA and Product ID neither is valid. Verify the software you want to exchange is included in the Technology Advancement Software. If the software you have to exchange is included then verify the software was acquired between March 31, 2003 and June 30, 2005." ***** As with every other attempt, I have gone ahead and sent another e-mail, but while I wait my questions still are: 1. What does the date of the software have to do with it? 2. How would the PID determine the purchase date anyway? For Question #1, I purchased and assembled the parts in my AMD Athlon 64 3000+ system to replace my failed Dual Intel Pentium III system in December of 2003. Based on the website I meet all of the hardware requirments for this program. For Question #2, I acquired a legal copy of Non-OEM Windows XP Professional and Windows Server 2003. Sadly, I did not recall the dates for these as they weren't purchased online for my e-paper trail and have since lost the paper copies. Now who is to say that even if the software was produced in 2002 (leaving Microsoft's production facility) but was not sold to me until after March of 2003. However, there is no mention for a date of purchase with the software - merely that you hold a legal copy. Based on the website I meet the software requirment for this program. ***** I have copy and pasted the current text on the Technology Advancement Website below for easy review. . . .

    - Memory Allocation Failed I have been having problems with my Sony CD-RW of late. It records extremely slow, (4X but it has a 52X Max), and sometimes it wont record at all. The built in XP burning software will not work at all. I ran Checkit Suite and all checks good but I get a Memory Allocation Failed error. I have 1.5gb of DDR 2700 and a 30gb HDD with roughly 20gb free. Tried changing page file settings, (Increase) but still the error persists. Problems may be unrelated and the system runs absolutely great with the X64 version. I am using a generic brand of CD-RW blanks and it sems that this issue with the CD burner started with the acquisition of these blanks. But I had also just done a Format/Reload of my 32 bit system and installed the x64 as well. Lots of variables to contend with. I have also d/l'd the Highmat update for the onboard burning software but I thought that is primarily for ISO's. Maybe step 1 is to try different CD-RW media. Funny part is I get the exact same problems on the 32 bit as the 64 bit. Also have tried Roxio Easy CD as well as the software that came with the Sony both give the same results. I am able to burn disks but it usually takes a lot longer than it should, running at 4X is a big part of it, but it takes a very long time for it to even start the writing phase. Any input will definitely be appreciated. Gary Tag: 64 Bit Xp and Office XP compatability Tag: 6818
