    - Question about Dual Booting \ Multiple OS choices in WinXP Pro 64x Is it possible to install Windows XP Professional 64x and Windows XP Professional 32bit on the same machine (perhaps by using 2 HDs instead of one) in order to be able to select between the 2 operating Systems at Start Up like you currently can with pretty much any version of Windows ? I hope it is, I would like to be able to keep my 32-bit system for all of my older applications, get a few more drives and use Windows 64-bit for Recording Studio Applications alone such as Sonar 5 Producer Edition which supports 64x and other Audio tools that will benefit from the increased power. I am currently debating wether or not to install the trial because of this, I'm not sure if I really feel like making an Image of my current system incase I decide 64x isn't for me or for when my trial is up and I don't have money to purchase it just yet. Hopefully somone may answer. Thanks ! Tag: UNINSTALLING Tag: 18769

    - 64 Bit Installation Concerns I'm running Windows 64 bit OS on a Dell 2850 Xeon system. I am starting to regret going to 64 bit as this OS does not seem ready for prime time. First, my SQL connection does not work on my ASP application (it works fine in Windows 2000 Srv). The error message I get using DSN or SQLOLEDB is: ADODB.Connection error '800a0ea9' Provider is not specified and there is no designated default provider Again, no issues on Windows 2000. Also, my Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 isn't compatible with 64 bit. Should I consider going back to 32 bit? Is there a way to install 32 bit over top of 64 bit (without wiping the box). Also, is a 32 bit version avaiable on the 64 bit media? Thanks in Advance Tag: UNINSTALLING Tag: 18733

    - Installation HANGS I just built a computer using intels 630 emt64, giga-bytes 8n SLI Pro (nforce 4 chipset), GEIL DDRII 667mhz memory, WD Raptors (2x36GB) raid-0, and 2 chaintech 6600gt's durring the installation process i pressed F6 to load the 64bit SATA drivers, everything went extrordinarly well - from the "39 minutes remaining" till "Saving settings" took only 7 minutes..... then at "9 minutes remaining" i received a blue screen error message. the computer rebooted itself and windows install restarted... again at 9 minutes remaining i received another blue screen error yet this time it was different. This whole process went on for about 4 days of swapping hardware, testing, retesting and a lot of reconfiguring of the hardware and the bios with no success. I have tested the motherboard, ram, hard drives, power supply, and graphics cards on my girlfriends identical computer except for she has intel's 530 32bit processor; all hardware successfully operating. So i figured that the processor was the reason for the error messages, and took the processor back and exchanged it for a new one and had the tech at the store install the new processor (for liability reasons) and go through the installation process as well.... Same results - same spot in the saving settings, and he also performed the same trial and error testing that i performed. (the only way i can get this machine to work is with "32" bit xp pro and NOT the x64 version... but i did not build this machine to be "32 bit" --- it is a 64 bit processor so it should be operating xp x64, i installed the trial version and that worked "kind of". there were several times that blue screen errors happened and i figured that it was because that it was a "trial" version and may not have full support. my question is what is going on with the installation? i feel like i just waisted a lot of money on a version of windows that i cannot use.

    - msjet35.dll - Incorrect Version Error Hello everyone, I recently downloaded an installed the trial version of XP 64 Bit on a machine with a AMD64 bit processor. Most of my 32 bit applications run just fine. However I have two 32 bit applications that utilize an Access database that I am receiving the above listed error on. "MSJET35.DLL" - Incorrect Version. The applications both seem to install fine however when you actually try to run them is when you get the error. Anybody have any suggestions? Or is this just simply an incompatiblity error with no present workaround?

    - Will this affect performance We have a server with 64-bit Xeons, but we have 32-bit OS on it (Win2003). Would this affect performance when I run a 32bit application on it because of the 64-bit CPUs having to emulate 32-bit (WOW64), or is that only if you use 64-bit OS and run a 32bit compiled app on it ? thanks Sunit Tag: UNINSTALLING Tag: 18666

    - trial version update I downloaded the windows xp64 bit beta version last year when bought an msi board (with amd64 processor). The beta version was great but it didn't allow me to run the 32 bit software I had. I just want to verify that the Windows XP Professional x64 Edition trial software is the lastest release and that it will work with my current 32 bit software (or at least supposed to). Also, I understand that the lastest trial version is only good for 120-180 days. Will I be able to get a full version after the 120 days or will I have to reload xp pro? Will I get notified or sent an email to download the full version? When is the finalized version expected to be out, is it within the next 120 days? Thanks Max Tag: UNINSTALLING Tag: 18646

    - Will Visual Studio 6 run on Windows XP 64-bit? As the title says - Will Visual Studio 6 run on Windows XP 64-bit? I've seen one source that implies it won't, but nothing else to verify or refute that. As a Visual Basic 6 / Visual Basic.NET developer I need to be able to both maintain existing code in VB6 and write new code .NET. I'm being upgraded to a new PC with 64-bit Windows and wondering if this will work or not. I expect this will become a more common question as developers move to 64-bit machines over time. I think it would be very useful for Microsoft to explicitly state whether this is a consideration or not in the Visual Studio 6 information in MSDN. Thanks for any input anyone can provide.

    - Constant Disk Access When I first built my computer, I had constant disk access for about a week. It finally calmed down to just when I used it. Now three weeks later, it is back. The drives just will not stop running. I can't play a movie in the DVD plaver because the HD activity is sucking up all my I/O band width. I get some real jerky video. This should not be happening since I am running a dual core AMD 3800+ with 2 gig of Ram, and 5 250 gig SATA II hard drives. I need to explain this. "C" & "D" are a single SATA II drive with 50 gig set aside for the "C" drive. The "E" drive is also stand alone on a SATA II connection. The other three drives are set up in a raid 5 configuration on SATA I connections. The drives are all Hitachi and reconfigured to support SATA II even though the raid 5 configuration does not support it. Tag: UNINSTALLING Tag: 18634

    - Is x64 evil? From what I've heard, x^4 will be incompatible with old drivers, incompatible with a lot of old software, incompatible with fairly recent MICROSOFT software, and very little in the way of software or drivers has actually been written for it yet.

    - Windows Compression. . .anybody ever use it? Next question: Seing that hard drives, in the face of eternal development, remains the bottleneck of the PC, is anybody using compression today? Since compression, theoretically allows for less data to be read from the HD while putting the extra labour in fast memory, is there any speed boost? In the inevitable situations where there is a speed penalty, is the extra space it creates worth it. I remember how DOS pioneered compressed volumes, can't say I saw much difference then, except the hazzle to maintain it. I havn't used it since, and I simply havn't got a clue as to what became of the technology. Any one experienced any difference here with 'x64'? What you say? Am I siding with the suckers in this matter? Tony. . . Tag: UNINSTALLING Tag: 18597

    - Group Policy editing For test purposes I have setup a WinXP x64 workstation, made it a member of our domain, and installed the admin tools from Adminpak.msi for Win2003 server 32-bit. When I try to edit a group policy object from AD Users and Computers, I get an error msgbox saying that gpedit.msc cannot be found, but a file search shows that gpedit.msc exists in c:\windows\system32. If I run either the 32-bit or 64-bit version of MMC, it allows me to add the group policy editor snapin, but forces me to associate this with only one group policy object. As we have about 60 GP objects in our AD this is not a viable solution. Is it possible to edit GP objects on an x64 workstation in the same way as on a 32-bit workstation, by going to the properties of an OU and then editing the GP object from the group policy tab of the OU properties dialog?

    - Where is MBR on RAID0 System? Hi! I have some left over space on my RAID0 (aprx. 74GB) out of curiosity, I want to install some 'other' OS in a new release - strange, though, it will not recognize what is currently on that RAID, but is seing two HD's of 114 GB and offers to create a RAID on there. So, instead, I have decided to not use the RAID, put back in an old IDE drive and use a BOOT-Floppy, but I would very much like to know if I could make good (and safe) use of the MBR on the existing RAID. I strongly assume that the MBR is on the first disk on the RAID (BIOS Disk 0) since it is so little data that it would make no sense to have it striped, and I also assume that the BIOS would need access to the MBR before any RAID is present. But I just do not know - any advice??? TIA, Tony. . . Tag: UNINSTALLING Tag: 18487

What is error message when you attempt access your My Documents? The only
way to revert back to your old XP Pro is to reinstall it which means you
will have format the hard disk on which XP Pro x64 is installed if thats
your setup.
