Do I need 64-bit software to work in the x64 Vista OS?
I am plaining to purchase a brand new Dell T3400 PC which 100% compatible
with 64-bit MS Vista OS. The hardware drivers are no worry. I worry if the
regular software like MS office 2007 and DVD editing program like Roxio 10
will work under 64-bit OS without dedicate for 64-bit spec. Are anyone tried
and works? Tag: Performance update is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers Tag: 60715

Installing Windows XP 32-bit over Windows XP 64-bit
Somehow, I wound buying a Dell Precision workstation with Windows XP 64-bit
installed on it only to discover that a LOT of my software is not 64-bit
compatible and never will be. HP, Nikon, even Adobe don't appear to have
functioning fixes for Windows XP 64-bit. So I am faced with having to buy an
OEM version of Windows XP 32-bit and installing that if I want to use my
existing software library.
Never having installed an OS before, the prospect of installing Windows XP
32 scares me and I thought I would ask here for advice.
1. am I going to need special cables, etc. or will the thing load from the
CD?
2. I presume I can get the necessary drivers either off the Cd that came
with the computer or from Dell as the OEM?
3. could I have a problem that Windows XP 32 is an older system than
Windows XP 64 (and the installer decides it won't overwrite)?
4. Assuming that I am not going to want to migrate the XP 32 license from
this machine to another, is there any reason to buy a retail rather than the
OEM version I can get from Dell?
5. If the world changes and more companies offer 64-bit drivers and
software and I want to go back to a 64-bit machine, will I be able to reload
the original Windows XP 64 OS?
What else should I be asking and haven't?

Windows Media Network Sharing Service stops responding
Hi All,
My problem is that every time I start my computer Windows Media Player
Network Sharing Service stops responding and has to close. There is no data
associated with the problem. Media Player itself crashes immediately upon
opening. I have been looking for a fix for this problem for some time and
have yet to find a solution. I have Vista Ultimate x64 with all available
updates installed. At this point I am going to just disable the service
altogether until a solution is found. This is quite annoying. So much for the
Media Center capabilities of Vista Ultimate. System: ASUS P5N32E-SLI MoBo
BIOS 1404, Intel E8500 CPU, ASUS EN8800GTX Video Card, ASUS Xonar DX Sound
Card, 6GB RAM, 4x 320GB Hard Drives. All the latest available drivers
installed. System works great except for this issue. Any help would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks. John Zimmermann Tag: Performance update is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers Tag: 60694
Windows 64 Memory corruption tools
Hi -
We are trying to port our 32 bit application to x64 platform. We are
facing some memory corruption in ntdll.
Just wondering are there any good memory corruption tools on x64
platform?
I have been googling this but could not find microsoft memory tools
for x64.
Other question is -
While porting application are there any specific flags which needs to
be applied
We are using Platform sdk x64 for porting and We replaced -DWIN32 to -
DWIN64 and /MACHINE:x86 top /MACHINE:x64. Is that the only change
applicable to port this application

64 Bit compatability issue
I know my processor is 64-bit capable But I don't know about the other
hardware, and all I get from the manufacturer is a run around. Is there some
sort of test software I can download from Microsoft that will let me know if
Ultimate (64-bit) will run? I currently have Home Premium (32-bit) but need
the access to over 3.5GB RAM that the 64-bit would provide... and figured,
since I'm upgrading... may as well go for Ultimate at the same time. Tag: Performance update is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers Tag: 60669

No restore points?
Vista Ultimate 64 SP1 on ASUS M2A-VM with Athlon 64 X2 5200+, 2 GB
memory (was 4 GB but finally had to remove 2 GB to prevent constant
weird failures.)
I inadvertently hit the "Sleep" button on my keyboard (I *K*N*O*W* I
should have disabled it!) and had the usual problems getting the PC to
awake, it did wake up but failed to install a USB Printer and also
failed to install my mouse software so.....
I rebooted and... had a bunch of grief, the machine just refused to
boot. I got the little green indicator which would freeze, the screen
went black and only power off worked.
OK, BTDT before, I know how to fix it, boot into safe mode, open Device
Manager and delete Hauppauge WINTV 1600, reboot and all is well
except.... oops.... can't re-install Hauppauge card, different errors
so...
Why not just do a system restore? Because "System Restore is turned
off" and all restore points are gone! WTF?
BTW, USP printer and USB mouse install properly on first reboot.
I'll somehow get the Hauppauge card to install or I'll restore an
Acronis Image but... WTF turned off System Restore and lost all my
restore points? I don't dual boot, only one OS is installed. Tag: Performance update is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers Tag: 60656
Dual Boot ???????
Hey,
I recently added a second hard drive that had a fresh installation of
XP32 installed. My first HD has XP64 installed. It only wants to boot
the XP64 Drive. I was hoping to DUAL BOOT but when I go to BIOS I can't
get it to let me change Drive Priority. I am supposed to use the
"+"(PLUS) sign to raise or minus sign to lower priority but nothing
happens! Is there a good program that I can install that will allow me
to choose the HD I wish to boot to ? I have Partition Magic but it won't
allow me to add a FAT32 partition on XP64, so I can add BOOT MAGIC.
Thanks a lot for any help you may offer.
Max
PS- My XP64 is on an SATA DRIVE & the XP32 is on an IDE DRIVE, though
they are supposed to work just fine together.

Re: Vista bullet-proof install steps
Carlos
Over the weekend I add a "new Wireless Desktop 3000 (wireless usb keyboard +
mouse combo)"
When I first booted to each system(dual boot) Vista 64-Xp64-XP My mouse &
keyboard were frozen up at the log-in screen. I waited a couple of
minutes(at the log-in screen) & all three systems found the correct keyboard
mouse drivers.
Draw back I found with this Wireless Desktop 3000 was it would not stay
asleep on my system.I would put computer in sleep & in about 20 sec after it
would come out of sleep mode on it's own.It was a toss up whether or not the
mouse & keyboard would function at the log-in screen.Sometimes I would have
to do a reset to get keyboard & mouse back.No conflicts reported in device
manager or in sysinfo.

Colin,
MSFT Wireless Desktop 6000 (wireless usb keyboard + mouse combo) won't work
when plugged to a Gigabyte GA-MA790FX-DS5 motherboard even after Vista is
installed.
That very same combo works flawlessly in many other PC's.
The only workaround was to use the provided USB to PS/2 adaptor and plug it
to the PS/2 ports.
And yes, all the corresponding USB options in BIOS are activated.

how to fix install issues of XP x64 after Vista & XP x86?
Hi,
I installed Windows Vista x64. Then I installed Windows XP MCE (32-bit).
Installations happened without issue. Now I'm attempting to install Windows
XP x64 Pro. The CDRom boots fine and windows starts installing. After the
first reboot, the error message displayed is: "Windows could not start
because the following file is missing or corrupt: <Windows
root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe Please re-install a copy of the above file."
Attempting to boot to Windows XP MCE displays the same error. After booting
from the Windows XP x64 Pro CDRom to recovery console, and running "fixboot",
rebooting... XP x64 boots with the same error, however MCE boots normally.
(Of course, Vista boot is restored from the Vista DVDRom.)
Scowering the web for articles, I discovered:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927817
The kb sort of describes my situation; XP can't be installed after Vista in
a dual-boot Vista/XP scenario. However, the kb article doesn't specify
64-bit or 32-bit, and the only issue is with 64-bit XP. The article
describes how Vista might modify the partitions, so that the correct
partition for XP is plus one of whatever partition is mentioned in the
boot.ini file. I honestly tried every possible rdisk/partition combination
to no avail. So knowledge base solution provided on the Microsoft website is
not complete. I've previously encountered the issue when installing XP x64
and XP x86 in the wrong order, so my guess is that the issue has something to
do with XP x64 vs XP x86, and nothing to do with Vista. My hope is to turn
to the XP expert forum.

Vista bullet-proof install steps
Another Vista install, another learning experience.
This time it was a Gigabyte mobo, with 790FX (a.k.a. "spider") northbridge
and SB600 southbridge, both ATI chipsets.
I had not read this kb http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931369 previously so
I found myself with a neverending installation.
A Vista green screen with mouse pointer and hourglass that would never go
away while the hard disk was spinning and spinning.
To make a long story short, THIS is what should always be done to have a
"safe", bullet-proof and enjoyable Vista installation experience.
1.- Use a standard IDE DVD drive for booting Vista installation, even if you
won't use it later. You can plug your shiny brand new DVD/RW sata drive once
the installation has finished.
2.- Only plug the hard disk (or disks for RAID, if applicable) that will be
the home of the operating system.
3.- Disable in BIOS all hard disk controllers except for IDE and the one
that holds the drives
4.- Don't plug any external hardware except for the mouse and keyboard. I
would recommend vanilla PS/2 mouse and keyboard, even if you won't use them
later.
5.- Disable on-board audio, parallel port, etc. You can enable them later.
6.- PCI and PCIe, only put your graphic card. You can add the other gizzmos
later.
7.- If applicable, have ready a floppy/pen drive with drivers for your hard
disk controller (or RAID).
8.- Use a maximum RAM memory of 2 gigabytes for the installation. The rest
of the sticks can be added when Vista is up'n runnin'.
9.- This should be step 0. Flash BIOS with the latest one obtained from the
mobo's manufacturer web site. It surely fixes issues and enables the latest
processors.
10.-Have coffee ready, sit down, relax and enjoy!

64-bit Cisco VPN Client
I bought an HP Notebook to replace an old desktop that was running Windows
XP Pro. The notebook was configured with:
a.. Vista Home Premium (64-bit) SP1
b.. Intel Core 2 Duo T9300 @ 2.50 GHz
c.. 4.00 GB RAM
To my dismay, I have discovered that the VPN client that my government
agency requires to connect to my office network will not install on the
notebook. The client is a 32-bit program and my IT department does not
provide a 64-bit client. So my new notebook was rendered useless as a
computer to telework with.
I configured it as a 64-bit Vista OS because HP sales told me it was needed
in order to be able to use the 4 GB of RAM. With memory becoming more
affordable, it seems to me that more purchasers of new PCs will be taking
advantage of the 4+ RAM options and hopefully companies like Cisco will see
fit to release 64-bit versions of their programs.
I have replaced the OS with a 32-bit Vista Home Premium and installed the
VPN client. The tradeoff: loss of about a gigabyte of RAM for the ability
to use my notebook to do my job. Tag: Performance update is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers Tag: 60538
DirectX
In Win XP Pro x64 SP2 dxdiag.exe 64bit wrongly reports the CPU as AMD64, while
32 bit correctly reports Intel.
System Information reports the CPU correctly.
I downloaded directx_jun2008_redist.exe, expanded it and ran dxsetup.exe. It
seemed to go through an install process and I rebooted.
However dxdiag.exe reports no change to dx file dates and the CPU information is
still wrong.
This matters because all the 64 bit display drivers that don't work are placed
by the NVIDIA installer in c:\NVIDIA\Win2KAMD64\xxx. I want to be sure I am
installing drivers for Intel CPU, not AMD.
What should I do next? Tag: Performance update is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers Tag: 60500
Problem with IE 7 32bit under XP 64
Hi
I have a problem with IE7 32bit running on my XP64bit machine.
The IE 64bit version works fine and I'd be happy just to stick to that,
but I can't access the MS Update page using the 64bit version - it
requires me to use the 32bit version.
The problem is when you open IE7 32bit it seems to just hang. The
interface opens as normal and the tab reports that is is connecting, but
nothing happens. It also sends processor usage right up...as though it
is doing something.
Unfortunately, no matter how long you leave it nothing happens. You
can't close the app either and I have to resort to killing the process
manually.
I have tried reinstall the application but this hasn't changed
anything.
Does anyone have any suggestions???
Cheers

64 bit Cisco VPN Client?
Reposted from m.p.w.vista.general....
<snipped>
Does Cisco have VPN client for Vista 64 bit?
Would there by any other options that would support IPK protocol?

Thanks. I tried there first. The Cisco AnyConnect for 64 bit is the
only one they support, but it is only SSL and not IPSec authentication.
Is there another type of client that will allow that with a Cisco VPN?

A better place to take this question is the
microsoft.public.windows.64bit.general ng. I say that only because I have
seen Charlie Russel and Carlos comment on this very question there.

Leadtek Quadro FX3500
I ordered from a VAR an NVIDIA Quadro FX 3500 along with a 64 bit mobo and Win
XP x64, but was supplied with a Leadtek Quadro FX 3500.
Although it works with the Win default VGA driver, it will not work with any
driver from Leadtek or NVIDIA.
I can find no mention of 64bit on the box, user manual or Leadtek web site so I
am suspecting that the Leadtek BIOS does not support 64bit.
Is this likely? Tag: Performance update is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers Tag: 60442

IE7 on X64 - This PC, X64, or?
I have found some occasional problems with websites, but only using
IE7 on X64. I don't personally know anyone else with x64, so I cannot
confirm whether the error is this PC or Microsoft.
If there is anyone out there with a Netgear DG834G, would you log into
it using IE7 (either 32 or 64 bit) and tell me if the Wireless page
displays, or does not display. It displays with Mozilla and Safari,
but not IE7. All the other DG834G pages work fine - it is just the
wireless page that shows up empty - noting the help along the right
side and the menus on the left both display just fine.
Online checkin with Virgin Blue also does not redirect to the checkin
page from the home page, it just displays an empty page and "done".
Safai or Mozilla work fine. There are a VERY SMALL number of other
non-functioning web pages using IE7.
Both Mozilla and Safari usually work fine, and I reinstalled IE7 from
the download site (but did not uninstall-reinstall, which could be a
fatal error in itself). With some confirmation it would work, a total
uninstall reinstall would be next.
Does anyone else experience such problems? Tag: Performance update is available for Windows Vista SP1-based computers Tag: 60417

Another Vista install tip
Along time, more and more people is moving on to Vista.
Guess who they call in town when they have a trouble?
This one took me one hour to solve it.
I was supposed to be an easy one.
Vista x64 on an nVidia nForce 550 based mobo, had disks in RAID, IDE DVD was
just a piece of cake.
Well... not. After booting off the DVD, Vista would ask for DVD drivers!!!
Drivers for vanilla IDE?
WTF?
I tried every known recipe.
Flash BIOS, reduce memory speed (they were only 2 gigs!), increase memory
voltage, disable every non necessary device, unplug everything.
No dice.
Until I took a closer look at the DVD IDE flat cable.
It was an "old" 40 conductor cable as opposed to the newer 80 conductor ones.
I replaced it, using a very bad looking ugly 80 conductor I had in my junk
box and that was it.
No more asking for IDE drivers, smooth install.
:)

Trying to install XP X64
I just bought the XP Pro X64 software and I am trying to install it on
my PC. I am switching from XP home to X64 so I know that I will have to
format my old drive and install a fresh copy of the X64. When I try to
boot from the CD I get a weird error message. It says
"File \AMD64\NTKRNLMP.EXE COULD NOT BE LOADED
The Error code is 7"
I have a qx6600 processor.
What should I do ? Did they make a version for AMD and one for Intell
?

Switching from XP Pro X64 to Vista X64
In the last 2 post that I started, I mentioned problems that I'm having
finding drivers and programs for XP Pro X64. I'm strongly considering buying
Vista X64. I know that I'll have to update drivers but is there anything
else that I'll need to do. Will my hardware components work with Vista X64
since they work with XP Pro X64?

Intel Raid Drivers for D975XBX Motherboard
I have a computer with the Intel D975XBX Motherboard in it (not the XBX2).
This has 4 Intel Sata connections & 4 Silicon Images Sata connections.
I plan to load Vista x64 on this system and run it with Raid 1 on my disks.
The raid F6 disks that came with it do not have Vista Drivers on them. I
have gone to the Intel Website and downloaded the raid F6 files for the
Silicon Images Sata connections; but, there appear to be no raid F6 drivers
for the Intel Sata connections.
Has anyone installed Vista on this motherboard using Raid?
If so, what drivers did you use and where did you get them?
I'm referring to the Raid drivers for the Intel connections.

How to identify the bitness of a dll
Hi,
How to identify the bitness of a dll/exe programatically? Is there any
Windows/.NET API that supports this programatically?
That is , i just want to create a program which will take a dll/exe as
input and identify whether it is a 32 bit or a 64 bit dll/exe..
Appreciate your comments.
Thanks

A little help from my friends!
This is a sharing issue but I hope my buddies will be able to help me.
I have 3 hard disks in my PC.
One is standalone SATA (I:) and there's where I keep my documents, favorites
and e-mail.
The two others are raid-0 SATA, having Vista in Primary Partition C: and 4
other partitions for different tasks. (D:, E:, F: G:)
So far I have been sharing in my home network only one folder in the
standalone disk (I:).
I can access to that folder from the other PCs by having added the user
"Guest" ("Invitado" in Spanish) in the sharing options.
When working locally on that folder I have full R/W rights and when
accessing remotely I can only read.
So far so good.
Now here's the issue.
Whenever I share a folder in any of the other 4 partitions (D:, E:, F:, G:)
I immediately lose writing rights on that folder.
I, locally, can only read but not write or delete or rename.
Even un-sharing is denied.
And the only possible recovery of rights is by going to Disk Management,
delete the partition, recreate it again and not sharing it!
Any ideas?

Flash install notes for Vista
I came accross this interesting article regarding problems when running
Adobe's Flash in both Vistas (x86 and x64).
http://www.ocmodshop.com/ocmodshop.aspx?a=1201
Essentially what the author claims is that, if you have recurring prompts
for installing Flash even if you did a zillion times, you might want to try
this:
"For Vista (32 bit):
Open File Explorer
Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
Right-click on FlashUtil9f (or whatever version you downloaded)
Select Run as Administrator
If you haven't turned UAC off, then you'll get a prompt. Let the wizard
install
Enjoy Flash
For Vista x64:
Open File Explorer
Navigate to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
Right-click on FlashUtil9f (or whatever version you downloaded)
Select Run as Administrator
If you haven't turned UAC off, then you'll get a prompt. Let the wizard
install
Enjoy Flash"
