Offline this week
Sorry, folks. I'm going to be mostly offline this week -- I've got to make a
run down to Redmond for a project I'm working on, and I'll be buried deep
inside campus with no access to the NG for most of the week. (And yes, it
_is_ x64 related, but not anything we've been talking about here.)
Depending on how things go, I may be able to get online and do some NG stuff
at night, but I'm not counting on it. My learning curve on this project is
pretty steep and I may not have the time or energy left.
Should be back online by the weekend, but it IS a major holiday weekend up
here in Canada. So I might actually take it off!

Gaming: Star Wars KoTOR problems
I've installed "Star Wars - Knight of the Old Republic". All seems to be
o.k., but when I started the game first time, there appeared an error
message that hints to an Open GL 1.4.0 driver. Does anyone know what that
means?

Problems with x64
I installed x64 Pro fresh on a brand new hard drive. The installation went
smoothly and I'm using the latest nvidia x64 drivers for my video card.
However, everytime I right click on a file in windows explorer, the screen
blinks off (or goes black) for a moment and then comes back on. I haven't
been able to replicate this anywhere else.
Also, when I have multiple levels on my taskbar (which is set to show only
one level and grouping windows is turned off), I have a wierd issue where if
I'm not on a particular level (and this seems to be random) and click on the
bar more than once, it switches to this random "default" level. Say if I had
three levels, and the second level was the random default, if I was on the
first level and clicked on a window it would restore normally. Now if I
switch to another level on that first level, the task bar would switch over
to the second level as if I hit one of of the arrow buttons to do so. This
is getting really really annoying as I often do have more than one level now
in XP.
Any ideas? I had 2kPro before so I have no idea if any of these problems
would have occured in 32 bit XP with the same hardware configuration...but I
doubt it. Tag: Printer-Driver PCL / Postscript w duplex Tag: 917
Product Key
Hi,
I downloaded the the x64 trial version a couple of months ago. Now i've got
a new PC i would like to install it on that but i've deleted the e mail with
the product key in it. Can someone please give me a link to where I can get a
new one, I've spent about an hour going through the Microsoft website but
have found nothing.
Thanks

AV software recomendations
Does anyone know of AV software that works well on W2003 x64 ?
We're currently using Symantec AV Corporate on 32bit servers, but I've had a
look at the x64 client that ships with AV Corp10 and it won't update it's
signatures from the parent server, it has to use Live Update which I won't
work through our proxyservers. In any case the client looks like a 32bit
hack.
Thanks

Asus SK8V Opteron board dead on network
Win2K3 Server x64 installed with no issues except intergrated LAN is unknown.
Uninstalled device to let windows find it again. Point directly to 64-bit
*.inf drivers from Marvel and fron PlanetAMD64 (2 versions). Windows refuses
to load drivers.
I can't figure why MS would release code for servers and not cover basic LAN
drivers. Come on MS, there are only so many Opteron boards on the market.
What good is any server operasting system if it can't connect to the network?
Might as well be a brick!
LAN drivers should be "in the box!" Tag: Printer-Driver PCL / Postscript w duplex Tag: 894

problem running 64bit os
i recently tried to install both the xp professional 64 bit os and the server
2003 x64 os. they both install without a hitch, but when windows attempts to
start up for the first time it just restarts my machine after what appears to
be a memory dump screen.(it flashes off very quickly) after the splash screen
for the os
it is being installed on a pair of sata drives but also on a normal ide
drive as well with the same issues...
my cpu is an amd64 winchester core and i have an asus a8v deluxe mb with
corsair xms ram...everything is at stock (as in no overclocking) and has the
most current bios versions installed.
are these os not going to run or are there any ideas you can give me to get
this installed
anyways thanks in advance for all the assistance Tag: Printer-Driver PCL / Postscript w duplex Tag: 853
x64 with a ps/2 mouse and USB gfx tablet; Possible problem found
To cut a long story short, I use a Logitech MX1000 in the ps/2 port (USB
tends to lag on 32-bit for some reason). I also have a Wacom graphics tablet
in a USB port. Under 32-bit XP this causes no problems whatsoever, and I can
switch between the two whenever I like.
Now... x64 picks up the mouse as a ps/2 compliant, and the Wacom works as a
mouse (listed as HID under mice) too. There are no problems using the Wacom
as a mouse. If however I switch to use the MX1000, the horrendous lag
problems occur with it. Every few seconds, the mouse starts behaving
erratically, jumping or pausing for a few seconds, making games unplayable
and Windows use generally quite unpleasant.
However, if I unplug the Wacom tablet, instantly the problems disappear and
the mouse performs as normal.
Bug? Unusual conflict..? Recommendations? (Yes, my drivers are all up to
date for the record ;)
After all, x64's vast memory is often purported to be most useful to people
working with graphical or video applications AND for games, and a lot of
people thus may have exactly this kind of configuration.

Have a DFI NF4 SLI-DR Lan Party motherboard with 2 XFX 6800 GT video cards.
With 32BIT WinXP it will go into SLI mode as soon as you enable it in the

OK there has been plenty of posts on this....and I was a little anxious =

First Tip
Make sure when you install do not and I repeat do not !!!! check Install =
DirectX 9b, the installation cancelled out with errors. On unchecking =
this as well as Punkbuster, things installed without a hitch....slowly I =
might add but without a hitch.
Then I installed .....Patch 1.1 then.....Patch 3.0 then....Patch =
3.1 then ....farcry_amd 64upgrade_us_uk then ....farcry_amd64_ecu
Started the game up and all went well, I did find it took a while to =
initialise but went it went into the game it was very fast to load
Hope this helps anyone having problems.

VIA Chipsets and SATA Drives
I'm getting tired of saying this, but SOMETHING CHANGED BETWEEN RC2 AND RTM!
The drivers that worked during the early days of the beta for using SATA
drives in VIA chipset motherboards (A8N, A8V, amongst others), WILL NOT WORK
RIGHT WITH THE RELEASED VERSION!
Please. READ the messages here, and learn from them, and save yourself some
pain.
You need to download updated drivers from: planetamd64.com or directly from
VIAArena. The ones on the ASUS site do NOT WORK. You need to make a new F6
disk to use during the installation.
Finally, on the A8V, at least, you need to use the two SATA connectors next
to the VIA chip, NOT the ones next to the Promise chip. The right ones are
marked "SATA1" and "SATA2". The wrong ones are marked "SATA RAID1" and "SATA
RAID2". And then disable the Promise controller in the BIOS.
These boards work, and work well. I'm sure that eventually all the driver
problems for them will get sorted. But in the mean time, READ and save
yourself some pain, and save those of us trying to help some bandwidth.

Got my XP Pro x64 trial CD
Finally came in the mail today. Time to play...
Has to be activated within 14days of installation.
Apparently, you will be able to install the final release over top of the
trial, or perhaps change the PID number... but if you decide against the
"upgrade", you'll need to re-install your prior OS and perhaps even need to
re-format the drive first.
Most of the product insert talks about using the built-in and online help
and support. Windows Update will be the normal route for updates.
Requires AMD Athlon64 or Opteron, or Intel Xeon or P4 with EM64T, 256M RAM,
1.5G hard disk space, super vga (800x600dpi) or better video card, CD ROM
or DVD drive, keyboard and MS Mouse or compatible pointing device.
Obviously, the system BIOS and chipset must also support x64, all 64-bit
drivers, etc. as with the server version... Tag: Printer-Driver PCL / Postscript w duplex Tag: 816
Dual boot can't load x64 w/o CD in boot drive.
I have loaded x64 in a dual boot with WinXp 32 bit. The 32 bit version works
fine, but I can't boot into the x64 version without setting bios to boot
from the CD first and have the x64 install CD in the drive. If I don't have
the CD in or set the computer to boot from hard drive or removeable drive I
get the following message:
"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."

Network Print Driver Help
Hi everybody
I have a HP LJ2100 TN Printer, when I hook it up to my XP64 computer, the OS
finds the printer and installs the driver. It works perfectly...But here is
the catch.
I have a 2003 OS (32bit version) setup as a DC. One of the things this DC
does is provide print services for my small little network. I want to add the
LJ2100 print driver to the print server. It's easy to do, but the problem is
where is the driver? I tried placing the XP64 OEM Cd in and having it search
for it. No luck.
I next installed the printer on the XP64 computer, installed the drivers and
then disconnected it. Then copied the drivers from the spooler directory to
the server tried it again. That wont work because I need an INF file to
install the drivers.
Is there a way to extract the print drivers fromt he CD somehow (assuming
somebody knows where to find them) so I can install those on the print
server, so I can then have my LJ2100 setup as a network printer?
I hope someone can help out and point me inthe right direction.
Thanks

Asus GF FX5950 Ultra

Promise FastTrac 378 Raid
USR 5610B modem
Leadtek WinFast TV2000 expert TV tuner
Epson Stylus C84 printer
The Promise raid drivers from PlanetAMD64 worked using F6 during install.
Creative beta sound drivers function normally. USR 5610B drivers installed
with the operating system and functions normally for sending a FAX but
dial-up internet dialer program doesn't recognize the operating system.
Onboard LAN functions normally. The only changes made from the original
installation; updated video to 71.84, installed creative drivers, everything
else is out of the box. I haven't found compatible printer drivers or
capture drivers yet. All standard programs function except my old DOS
programs. The only complaint at this time is with Epson and Leadtek for
being behind with drivers. This has been the most stable system from
Microsoft, including CPP releases that I've used so far. Regarding the spell
check concerns I don't have a problem because out of habit I cut and paste
to a blank Word document to check spelling. Tag: Printer-Driver PCL / Postscript w duplex Tag: 623

I want to take part in Microsoft's 'Windows's XP Professional x64 Edition
Technology Advancement Program' - basically swap my XP Pro's license for the
new x64 professional OS and license - at no cost. I have got all the drivers
I need and a perfect rig for this new x64 OS. However, I cannot get a driver
for the modem that I was given by the NTL ISP. It's the start of a new 12
month contract with them...so I can't just sod them off and move ISP, it
would cost me over £200 to break contract. And I don't want to resign to
being unable to take advantage of this offer *just* because of a petty
driver for my broadband modem - especially when I have all the other drivers
ready to go.
The modem is branded as NTL's property, it's a 'USB cable modem
351000' (only it connects with Ethernet or USB - I use Ethernet). I could
do with finding out who makes the damn thing for a start, but my ISP is not
too forthcoming with email help...but I'll try. Here's a link to picture of
it though, in case in the meantime, someone could recognise the model and
possibly suggest the manufacturer. A long shot, I know - but I really want
to do this upgrade, so anything's worth a try. :)

Greetings,

Xp 64 pro can be install in a system with new 6xx P4?
What the difference between Amd64 and 6xx P4?
Some tell me that new 6xx P4 cpu has got just 64 bit
memory address and not 64 bit realy "power". Is it true?
TIA

3com 3CRDAG675 / 64 bit nightmare
Has anyone successfully managed to get a 3com 3CRDAG675 card working in
Win64?
I've got 2 network cards on my machine, and the drivers that worked on the
Windows beta for the other card no longer work, and I can't find anything at
all for the 3com wireless.
I'm nearly at my wits end; I've wasted a lot of time and money trying to get
a 64bit box working, and can't get a decent response out of any company
involved - now they have my cash, why should they?
Is anyone else feeling a bit ripped-off with the whole 64 bit experience
now? Tag: Printer-Driver PCL / Postscript w duplex Tag: 514
USB Floppy Problem
My USB floppy will not function in x64. I get an error message "This
Device Cannot Start (Code 10)" after x64 attempts to install USBSTOR.SYS
for this device. I also have a USB hard drive, 120 GB, that is
recognized and functions correctly in x64 with this USBSTOR.SYS driver.
This USB floppy is identified as both an "SMSC USB Floppy" and "FDC
Gold-2.10" in XP-32 and also uses the system driver USBSTOR.SYS. This
USB floppy functions correctly in XP-32, WinME, and Fedora Linux.
I have a MSI K8T800 Neo-FSR (VIA chip set) MB and the USB floppy
initializes correctly during boot and is even offered as a boot device.
