    - dual boot mess-up / ntoskrnl problem Hi, I'm new to XP x64 and I don't have exactly much experience with systems (problems). Here's a brief description of what happened: I bought a new computer with a AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core processor. I installed Windows x64 version but I noticed some problems with non-64-bit programs and I read that some of them didn't have full 64-bit compatibility, so I decided to install my old Windows XP Home version to run these programs. (Here comes the stupid part:) I installed it on the same disk/partition as my x64 system. When I start up, I get to choose between Home (default selection) and x64 and my Home version works just fine. When I select to start up with x64 however it gives the following error: Windows could not start because following file is missing or corrupt: <Windows root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe Please re-install a copy of the above file. I've tried to repair it using the x64 CD repair console, reading somewhere that I should type: (this is with my disk adresses) expand e:\i386\ntoskrnl.ex_ d:\windows\system32 This didn't work: the path file specified could not be found. I inspected the CD and noticed the only ntoskrnl file present was in the AMD64 directory instead of i386. "Expand e:\AMD64\ntoskrnl.ex_ d:\windows\system32" executed but when booting he still says the ntoskrnl file is missing/corrupt. Then I tried something desperate: I copied the ntoskrnl.exe file from my Home system32 folder into my x64 system32 folder, hoping the Home file was fine. Now i receive the error that the hal.dll file is missing/corrupted. And now I'm too scared to move :-) I got the original ntoskrnl.exe file from before I attempted the repairs. Is this fixable? Should I remove the x64 system from my computer (how?) and install it on a new partition? Anyone can help me out with this? Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 19169

    - creating an F6 RAID disk question. I've been trying, in vain, to install Win x64 on my PC. once windows is installed I go into the trap: 0x0000007B reboot problem. They only way I have gotten XP x64 to install is by disabling my RAID, which is not an option for me. From what I have read, this is a problem with the F6 drivers I have been using. I'm running a Gigabyte k8n pro-SLI motherboard using version 4.84 of the nvidia raid bios. I have tried using the F6 driver on gigabytes web page, but that doesn't help. I want to try to download the latest drivers directly from NVidia, but, they don't have a downloadable F6 package, but, I believe it may be possible to create a disk by copying the relevant files to a floppy. The only problem is, I have no idea what files to copy and what, if any, directories should be on the floppy. Is there anyone here that can enlightent me? or at least point me in the right direction? I'm using the full release of X64 on CD (sent to me by MS from the upgrade from XP professional promotion) My hardware is: Gigabyte k8n pro-SLI motherboard running the version 5 bios and 4.84 raid bios. 2 GB of RAM AMD x2 4400+ processor a pair of Western Digital 120GB hard drives (striped) The raid currently has two partitions on it. 180GB is for my current install of Win XP pro and 60gb is for the X64 install. Thanks for any help you can give me! Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 19130

    - Reboot and reactivate On x64, I recently uninstalled a piece of software ( I don't remember exactly what it was, but I remember it was not a Microsoft product) and, after the requested reboot, a screen came up that said something to the effect that there had been significant changes to my system and I had 3 days to activate it. The system had been activated, and up and running for about 30 days with no problem. I had to call Microsoft to reactivate, as it had already been activated before on the same system. My question now is, I need to do a repair install, as I seem to have munged up something to do with password protection on resume from screensaver. When I do the repair install, will I have to re-activate again? Is there something I can back up to avoid having to do this? Thanks, Steve Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 19122

    - Repair Trial x64 SP1 to full version Hi Everyone, I understand that I can do a repair on my trial version to update the license to the full version. But, what if I have SP1 and other updates installed on the trial version? I understand that I probably will have to reinstall these following the repair. But, do I have to remove them first? Will the repair reset the installed chipset system drivers, etc ??? Thanks, James Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 19117

    - RAID in XP 64 My current system has 3 IDE hard drives with 6 partitions with a dual XP 32 & XP 64 boot (non RAID). One of my IDE hard drives is on it's last leg so I bit the bullet an purchased two 160GB SATA2 hard drives. I want to stripe the 2 hard drives for MAX game performance. Will I lose speed if I partition into two 160 GB hard drives since the head must move to the different partitions (I read that on another web site)? Please give me feedabck on what the ideal situation for speed would be. I want fast load times.... Don't care about backing up data (no mirror).... I would like to keep my dual boot XP32 & XP 64 but I will sacrifice one operating system if I must to keep the load times down. Thanks Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 19111

    - Nero 7 doesnt uninstall on Win x64 Well I got my first BSOD in years using Nero 7. So I figured I'd uninstall it and load Roxio 8 for a change. I know its hard to belive since Roxio EZ-CD was so bad for years. Anyway I digress. When I went to uninstall Nero 7 I recieved the following message 'Error applying transform. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid'. Obviously Nero doesnt recogonize or like the \program files (x86)\ directory even though it installed into it. It didn't even ask me where I wanted to load the files, it just automatically defaulted to c:\. I eventually had to delete the Nero folder and clean out the registry with TweakNow Reg Cleaner 2.6.0 which supposedly supports x64. Yes I know that using a reg cleaner is a bad idea but time is not in abundance for me right now. Well to make a long story short Roxio 8 is up and running well on my system. Don't know if I'll run into the same problems if I have to uninstall it. Just a heads up! Regards, Wad Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 19095

    - COM dll (32 bits) on a x64 system Hi, I have tried to install a COM dll (32 bits) as a service using dcomcnfg on a 64bits OS. When I started the service, I got an error (can't quite remember) about some dll's not found. I suspect this is related to the system32 folder and the SysWOW64 folder but I'm not sure. It might also be related to the fact that I'm using dllhost.exe to host the COM dll and that the dllhost is 64bits while my dll is 32bits. Any ideas? Please refer me to an appropriate document or if you have any idea please let me know, Thanks in advance, Henri. Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 19067

    - Windows 64 bit activation Hi there, Have recently (just over a month ago) bought an AMD 64 bit 3000+ with XP Pro 64 bit preloaded from a reputable site on Ebay. Not knowing anything about 64 bit assumed it was just the latest version of XP. I had problems loading applications Blue Yonder broadband, HP Deskjet software etc.. and gave up for a few weeks. When I bootup the pc it now asks for Windows to be activated. On saying "yes" to this a box appears saying that it is already activated and to "exit". When exiting the welcome screen logs off everytime. I don't know what to do now as I cannot get the Product ID in control panel until I can login. I have the Product key on the Recovery disk supplied. I remember that it says on the bottom of the desktop that this is an evaluation copy. Does this mean that I have to purchase another copy of Windows XP or is there some way to get this version activated? Thanks for any advice Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 19034

    - A problem with BToes and the x64 driver I have bought the BToes ver. 365 and I have a winxp x64 system. When I connect the BToes to my computer, winxp x64 automatic chooses the drivers (Blutonium BCM2035 Bluetooth 2.4 GHz Single chip Transceiver and Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator). I can say that file transfer between my computer and my cellphone works with this. I have downloaded the btdongle_XP64bit.zip. When I try to update the Blutonium BCM2035 Bluetooth 2.4 GHz Single chip Transceiver I get the message that The specified location does not contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the location contains a driver, make sure itÂ´s designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems. And when I try to update the Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator I get the message that Installing this device driver is not recommended because Windows cannot verify that it is compatible with your hardware. If I choose to intall the driver I get a yellow exclamation mark beside the MSI USB Bluetooth Device in computer management and with the error This device cannot start. (Code 10).

    - WIA on X64 Hi, On X32 I have a complete working WIA set of user mode .dll/.exe and kernel mode driver for a video capture board. On X64, I have a working X64 Kernel mode driver, and I have the same 32-bit user mode WIA components (.dll/.exe). I install using an X64 INF file under X64 and the kernel mode driver captures video, but WIA is not working. For example, my device is not listed under Scanners and Cameras. I thought I did not need to rewrite the user mode stuff for WIA since there is a WIAWOW64.dll that takes care of all the 32/64 bit transitions.

    - Dialogue during MUI installation In a dialogue while installing MUI, I added "Japanese" for "Install languages for menus and dialogs" and left a default entry of "English" for "Default user settings". The last question in the dialogue was wheather to put a check mark or not on "Match the language for non-Unicode programs with the default user language". I did not understand what the question means so I did not put a check mark. Could anyone shed light on the above? What would be consequence for my not putting a check mark there?

    - x64 - WriteFile() - Insufficient system resources exist to complete I am not sure if this is the right place for this question or not. If not, kindly direct me to the proper group. I am having a problem with WriteFile() returning an error. I have whittled this problem down to a short test program in C which fails under WinXP x64, but works fine on WinXP x86. I see the problem whether I compile for a win32 or a win64 target. The quick summary is that if I use a size of 33525760 I can use WriteFile() (after a CreateFile() with the FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING flag) just fine. If, however I use a file size of 33526272 or larger, then I get: Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service. I am running on a Dell Precision Workstation 670 w/ dual Xeon processors, 2GB RAM and using WinXP x64 SP1. I have tried increasing the pagefile.sys size since someone suggested that, but it did not help.

    - Software Speed Inconsistancies with Windows Professional XP x64 I have been having lots of weird software problems with my 32-bit programs. Most noteably are the games where the software will run normally for 5-10 seconds and then speed up as if the game is running twice as fast as it normally should, it will do this for 5-10 seconds and then go back to normal and repeat. The videogames I have noticed this on so far are -Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas -Star Wars: Jedi Knight II -Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic I also notice the same problem in flash apps that run in my Firefox browser. The animation will speed up and slow down. Obviously I haven't had extensive testing with where this orginating from or why it is doing this but believe me I have made sure that there aren't any other programs running while I use these programs (unless there is something running that I am not seeing). The funny thing is sometimes the software will run just fine and then I will hit a loading transition in a game it will go out of whack; restarting my computer fixes the problem usually. The system I am running this on was purchased in June of this year with 1 gig of RAM, an AMD 64bit Dual Core Processor +4600, and a new ATI graphics card. Could this have something to do with AMD's dual processor set-up in their chip? Any info on this weird problem would be much appreciated, thanks. Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 18941

    - x64 detection I had been using the existence of the registry key: HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node to determine if a remote system is an x64 os. It seems a couple of applications now create that key if it does not exist on non-x64 systems (at least Emulex and Broadcom software has done so). I am looking for a more accurate way (non-WMI) to do this. I have noticed a registry key existed on a x64 system: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\RESOURCEMAP\Hardware Abstraction Layer\ACPI x64 platform On a non-x64 system I have: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\RESOURCEMAP\Hardware Abstraction Layer\ACPI 1.0 - APIC platform MP These are only two cases and I don't know how many others exist. Would it be safe to assume that if the wow6432Node exists AND the key under Hardware Abstraction Layer has "x64" in its name that I could be confident in assuming the machine is an x64 system? If not, is there a (non-WMI) way that I should use to identify a remote machine as x64. I do not know of a WMI way either but the requirement I have is that WMI not be required to be running on the remote machine. Thanks Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 18931

The error also happens when I try to close MSN Messenger. Besides that, in IE, the new window doesn't give result if I right click the hyperlink.(open in a new window). Another error also happens if I click Find menu (CTRL+F) from Internet Explorer 6.0: Error: 35 Incompatible version of the RPC stub. I find this error has relation with Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express program. If Outlook program is not running, the invalid page fault error doesn't happen. I also have updated schannell.dll (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;315209) but the error still occurs. Please help me on this RPCRT4.DLL error. Thanks.

    - Boot.ini command switches for x64 Could someone list the available switches for boot.ini? There doesn't appear to be any references to x64 specifically, all links relate to 32-bit Windows installations. For example, do such switches as /PAE /3GB etc still perform the same function as they would in their 32-bit counterparts? Thanks. Tag: 64bit irc community Tag: 18902

Well, nothing beats the good old newsgroup. :) Most persons are not looking
for somewhere to hang out, they just usually want answers to their problems
and move on.
