    - Running XP64 on second HDD. Hi, I too have downloaded the trial version and burned it to disk. I tried it on a WDD 60GB IDE HDD and it ran fine but... no drivers for Canon printer and scanner and none to be created, according to Canon tech support and sales, so I uninstalled it for now. So here's the big question; I've purchased a new WDD Raptor 74GB SATA HDD and installed Win XP 32bit onto it, to run all the peripherals I have. Can I re-install my WDD IDE HDD and install the 64bit edition on it, then just run the 64bit OS from that drive when I'd like to practice using the newer 64bit trial OS? I've heard from some that there may be a conflict trying to run an IDE and a SATA drive on the same System but this is my first SATA drive and I just don't know. I don't want to set them up in a RAID config, just have a choice of which OS to use from time to time and still have full access to my printer and scanner using Windows XP Home Edition. Has anyone out there tried this or succeeded at this? I'd appreciate knowing one way or another. Thanks Tag: Will Vista run in 64bit, or is there going to be a X64 ver.? Tag: 17139

    - Windows 2003 Enterprise x64 NIC problems I am trying to run W2003 x64 on dual processor ACER Altos. The Intel PRO/1000 Gigabyte included was setup without glitches. Now, most of the times it reports an "unplugged cable". I tried updating the driver with most recent from Intel (the one for 64 bits architecture) but to no avail. I have an added NIC that work fine. Does somebody have experienced something like this? Does somebody have any suggestions? Thanks in advance Tag: Will Vista run in 64bit, or is there going to be a X64 ver.? Tag: 17117

    - Im having problems with installing anything I installed XP 64 and it worked fine. But when I try to install any software it complains. I tried to install the drivers for my motherboard but it won't. So my USB's are not working. I tested this by installing my webcam. While installing I had a few error messages, and after it installed my computer won't detect the webcam so I know the USB's are not working. I can't get onto the Internet on 64bit becasue I have a talktalk modem. I was hoping if anyone can help me at all? With drivers or something? Should I install 64bit over 32 or do a fresh install?

    - Possible bug using DCOM config I have 2 AMD dual core systems with 64 bit and 32 bit XP dual boot. Both machines are getting this error every day The machine-default permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {555F3418-D99E-4E51-800A-6E8 9CFD8B1D7} to the user NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE SID (S-1-5-19). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool. I cant find this in the registry. While trying to debug this problem I noticed that i cant get into DCOM config in component services. I get the error mmc.exe ia not a valid 32 bit windows application. mmc works in run so its not that. I'm wondering if any of you have this problem getting into dcom config. I have a feeling this is a MS bug. Thanks, jb Tag: Will Vista run in 64bit, or is there going to be a X64 ver.? Tag: 17100

    - Managed C++ I was wondering if there is a catch when you use a win32 compiled Managed C++ asssembly on XP 64bit. (2.0 Framework) My app runs on 32 bit systems fine! But it says that there is a BadImageFormatException when I try to run it on XP 64bit. It doesn't matter if the application is compiled for an x64 system or the standard 'mixed platforms'. I realize I am basically saying, "It doesn't work." Therefore, I am specifically asking if you can use a win32 Managed C++ assembly on XP 64bit. I didn't see an option to compile a Managed C++ project for x64. Tag: Will Vista run in 64bit, or is there going to be a X64 ver.? Tag: 17077

    - Install XP Pro 32bit OEM on XP Pro 64bit OEM, and dual boot OK, I know this kind of thread has been thrashed to death, but I have yet to find one that addresses my particular situation. If you think there is a thread/FAQ/tutorial that addresses my Q's, then please point me in the right direction! Current setup: System model: AWRDACPI BIOS version: Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG OS: Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP Professional x64 Edition (5.2.3790, SP1) Disk 0: C (primary), D (no array) Disk 1: E (primary), F (no array) MS Windows XP Pro 64bit is running on the C partition. Applications/data have been installed through Windows onto the C, D and F partitions. Desired setup: Install MS Windows XP Pro 32bit on the E partition (seperate physical disk to the 64bit OS install). I would then be able to dual boot, running MS Windows XP Pro in either 32 or 64bit. Problems/Q's/Other: 1. How do I go about installing MS Windows XP Pro 32bit? (step by step guide would be nice, but general tips are OK). Can this be done through Windows 64bit? Using PowerQuest PartitionMagic 8.0? (note I have a separate license for each version) 2. When I dual boot, will I be able to 'see' the primary partitions of the other MS Windows XP Pro install? eg. based on current setup, would I be able to see the C partition if MS Windows XP Pro 32bit is booted from the E partition? 3. Would installing applications/configuring hardware from MS Windows XP Pro 32bit from the E partition cause any impact to existing installs/configurations on other partitions? 4. Will my actions in getting the desired setup as described place my data at increased risk (loss/corruption etc)? Tag: Will Vista run in 64bit, or is there going to be a X64 ver.? Tag: 17076

    - Server 2003 x64 slow networking with wireless clients I've got Windows Server 2003 x64 eval wired to a home router/network. Wired connections to the server work as expected, but wireless connections are painfully slow. I'm talking like dialup slow. Windows reports the speed at 1 Mbps, but I think that is generous. It's not the network. The wirelss clients can connect to one another or to another wired client, and speeds are normal (54 Mbps). Anybody got any ideas?

    - Question to Acer Ferrari 4000 Owners Sorry for being slightly off topic (it still has to do with Win64 though). Ok, so on my desktop I have now gone 64 bits 100%, (no dual boot to 32 bit what so ever), and everything works flawlessly. I now want to do the same on my laptop and Iam thinking of getting an Acer Ferrari 4000. I know there are a couple of guys/girls here using that laptop. I will be using the laptop for presentations and I just wonder if Fn-F5 to send output to external projector works with whatever video drivers there are for the 4000 and xp64? I'm asking 'cause I saw somewhere else someone having problem with the 4000 and doing this (this was with Vista Server though). Thanks!!

    - Game port not recognized by Win XP 64bit Hello, I recently built a really nice machine based on the Asus A8N SLI Deluxe motherboard. I added an AMD 64 Athlon X2 CPU and Windows XP 64 bit. This latter one probably being the cause of my problem but there may be a simple solution out there that I don't know about. So here's the problem: this motherboard comes with a USB/MIDI attachment that has a game port on it (2 USB ports and 1 MIDI/Game port). I installed the attachment and connected an old MS sidewinder joystick to the gameport but the system does not seem to recognize it. I looked at the device manager and it says that no drivers are installed for this device. I downloaded the latest Realtek drivers from the ASUS website but no luck there either. Does anyone know if there are drivers out there that would allow me to use my old joystick? If not, I guess I'll have to get a USB joystick. Thanks, D.

    - Out of TIME! Out of LUCK! So, I went to buy the full version of XP 64. DUMB ME. I opted to try it out before I bought it. Now my trial is up. And when I went in to buy a copy, I learn that the NEW OEM purchase requirements are FULL SYSTEM ONLY! I don't need a full system. I asked for clarification. I can't get a new dual corp CPU?

    - Solidworks 2005 WORKS under x64...more inside Ok after many weeks of trials and errors i FINALLY got my copy of Solidworks 2005 to work on x64,i saw many people asking if SW 2005 works under x64,i was one of those people who said no,but now ill explain how to make it work (this goes for the original discs of SW 2005,if you are trying to make it work with something illegal,dont come here to complain that it ain't working) : SW 2005 support x64 from SP 3.1 and beyond. - First Take out the plug. - Second you need to download HASP Device Driver which can be downloaded from here: http://www.aladdin.co.il/support/hasp/hasp4/enduser.asp The file is called H4_hinstall.zip - Unzip the content of that zip,then go to Start-> Run,drag hinstall.exe into the Run box and add SPACE -i at the end. - Now install SW 2005 SP0 from your discs. (you will still get an error on its last disc,ignore it). - When its done installing,update your copy of SW 2005 with SP 5.0 (or eariler versions,but keep in mind that you must have at least SP 3.1) - After its done updating your SP 5.0,go to add/remove programs in your Control Panel and do a repair for SW 2005. - Insert your plug back in,now Solidworks 2005 should work fine. * I even installed SW 2006 and both of them are working together like a charm (SW 2006 installs fine,no need of any tweaking). * This little tweak came from the Solidworks support,its not my doing.

    - Itanium vs Opteron Dual Core Hello again. Can somebody please enlighten me in terms of how the Itanium is likely to compare with Opteron dual core? I know the Itanium will run HPUX as well as Windows, and I know the Itanium is pricey! I am not thinking of desktop use here, but just for SERVER use : * ignoring the HPUX support, are there decent reasons to consider Itanium? My gut feel is no, but what do I know? * when running Windows are there discernable performance reasons to go with one over the other? * since Itanium has a different software build for the OS, I presume it also needs different 64 bit application (server) builds; I notice SQL has an Itanium variant. Is this correct? * presumably any true .NET applications are platform independant; true? * is it 'believed' that MS will continue to support Itanium with any 64 bit builds in the long term? My fear is a repeat of the 'NT' ALPHA/MIPS/PowerPC scenario which occured early in 32 bit support... most processors no longer supported. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this.

    - Workaround - DOS under Windows 64bit Hello I am a s/w developer and I think it's time I had a 64 bit desktop; partly so we can produce applications for this platform, partly so we can support our (32bit) applications on a 64bit platform (inevitably our customers will do this some time soon...) I'm likely to go for a new PC with Pentium or Xeon and EM64T; (I want HT capability and am not prepared to pay the current premium for dual-core processor on a desktop...) The trouble is we still develop and support text-only DOS (!) applications. This is fine under W2K, WinXP... but I realise not so under 64bit. So, as a workaround I though I could run up Virtual PC on my desktop, and run up Windows 2000, XP, or even plain DOS. Does this sound a reasonable workaround? Are there any caveats I should look out for? I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks. -- Clive Crocker CMC Communication Systems Ltd Tag: Will Vista run in 64bit, or is there going to be a X64 ver.?

    - Scambled web pages Hello All I have not posted to this group before; I hope you can all help me. I have a newer 64 bit machine that I have installed xp 64. It seems to be running just fine except when I try and connect to the internet, my web pages come out all scrambled or don't display at all. Here comes the twist as soon as I connect to my VPN to work it seems to cure the problem, disconnect no work. My machine is: nVidia nForce4 SLI mb AMD 3200+ socket 939 1gb ram Gigabyte GeForce 5900 video card Any help is greatly appreciated.

    - I used windows 64bit edition and met one problem I bought windows 2003 64bit edition, and installed one analysis program. The program supplier said that this analysis program will be working well in windows 2003 32bit edition. My question is that there is an option that this program should be used using 32bit environment? Or I install 32bit ediditon? Tag: Will Vista run in 64bit, or is there going to be a X64 ver.?

    - use oldtrackball w/ xp?????? I hope I have the right newsgroup. I just install Windows XP, and I have a older Microsoft trackball that I would like to use. when I tried to install, I get a message that says, XP cannot work well with this older trackball software. So, my question. Is there a way to make Windows XP work with my older trackball? I think I read/heard somewhere that you can make Windows XP "look like Windows 98."and make it use older software applications (my trackball) If you could help I would appreciate it very much. If I am in the wrong newsgroup, could you direct me to the one that can help. Thank you very much, 73 cl. Tag: Will Vista run in 64bit, or is there going to be a X64 ver.? Tag: 16871

Yes, there will be a x64 version. In fact, its rumored that all editions
except for the Starter edition will be available in both 32/64 bit versions.
So the user will have a choice to install either the 32 bit or 64 bit
version according to their processor architecture.

There will be both x64 and x86 versions of all but the most basic home
edition, from what I've seen reported. But it's WAY too early for final
decisions about SKUs and versions. They will almost certainly change by the
time this all ships.
