    - none yet available from eTrust for Windows 64Bit Edition http://crm.my-etrust.com/login.asp?username=guest&target=DOCUMENT&openparameter=1906 Windows XP Professional x64 Edition is designed to meet the demands of customers who require large amounts of memory and floating point performance. A change from a 32-bit to a 64-bit architecture is a fundamental alteration, as most operating systems must be extensively modified to take advantage of the new architecture. Other software must also be ported to use the new capabilities. Porting is usually required because of differences in the central processing unit, operating system interfaces, different hardware, or because of subtle incompatibilities in-or even complete absence of-the programming language used on the target environment. I am providing you with the webpage link which will help you to understand the issue. http://crm.my-etrust.com/login.asp?username=guest&target=DOCUMENT&openparameter=1906 Our team is working on the software that will support 64-bit platform. Very soon you will have eTrust Products working on 64-bit Operating System. If you have any other queries, please write to us and we will be happy to assist you.

    - I May Have Been Had on an XP x64 License After the OEM XP x64 disk I had originally purchased from Directron was damaged during a reinstall (due to my own carelessness), I needed to purchase a new license. I found an "OEM" disk listed at 9software.com in Hampton, VA for $119.00. I received the disk today, but the disk is labeled: "Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 Edition (Volume License Product Key Required). "May 2005 Systems "Windows Client: Business. "All use subject to volume license agreement. Do not make illegal copies of this disk. Not for Retail or OEM Distribution. Not for Resale." So, it looks like I've been had. I don't want an illegal copy of x64 on my system. Should I report this 9software.com to Microsoft? If so, anyone know the address? Tag: can 64 be loaded on home edition Tag: 23888

    - windows server 2003 (64 bits) and cdrom.sys Several weeks ago, my windows 2003 server system that was running without any problems since at least 1 year, stopped seeing the cdrom (dvd) drives, BOTH of them. At first it was just a nuisance, but it would not go away. I bought new DVD drives, but the problem persisted. Frustrated, I decided to re-install. I introduced the windows 2003 64 bit server CDROM and booted from it. The re-installation went OK, it started copying the files from the DVDROM in the hard drive, then rebooted. When it rebooted, the setup program told me: "Setup continues", and then it crashed because "There is no CDROM installed. Can't continue" Both DVD drives are seen (in the same machine) by the other systems installed: Windows Server 2003 32 bits sees both DVD drives. The same for windows XP 32 bits The same for linux (64 bits) I can boot from the DVD without any problem. WHAT IS GOING ON? Thanks in advance for any help or hint that could help me to solve this problem jacob Tag: can 64 be loaded on home edition Tag: 23863

    - Can't get x64 to work on Dual with Win2K (NTOSKRNL) I was previously running dual boot with Win2K and WinXP SP1 on two separate primary partitions (C and F respectively). After getting XP x64 I decided to nuke my XPSP1 since I wasn't really using it and install x64 on the old XPSP1 partition. So I booted from the x64 CD, formatted the old XPSP1 partition, and installed x64. While copying files, I got an error, something about "NTOSKRNL.EXE is missing or corrupt. Please reinstall this file". The installation continued after that and everything seemed fine until the initial boot, and then I got the same error. So I did what the message says and look for that file, finding it in the AMD64 folder on the CD. I then use the expand command to extract that file into the windows\system32 folder on the x64 partition (I've booted into the Win2k partition to do this ofcourse). Except this didn't fix the problem, I still get the same error message. Anyone have any idea what the problem could be? Tag: can 64 be loaded on home edition Tag: 23834

    - MP3 encoder doesn't go beyond 56kbps I use VirtualDub to encode a movie, and obviously I want to encode the audio track with MP3. But the builtin codec won't go beyond 56kbps. I installed WMP10 because I know for a fact that it can rip music from CD to 192kbps MP3 without extra software (yes, I've seen it work) and many people commenting on this problem say you need WMP10, so I installed it. Furthermore, I applied the registry workaround: http://www.clickview.com.au/downloads/l3codecp.reg On my laptop (32-bits Windows) this works perfectly. But on my x64 box it doesn't do anything. Any suggestions? (and can someone maybe explain why the MP3 codec is limited to 56kbps??) -- Thanks, Martijn Saly Tag: can 64 be loaded on home edition Tag: 23810

    - How can I get Windows x64? Hi there. I'm building a new PC using an AMD 4400+ Dual Core processor, which uses a 64 bit architecture. I want to install Windows x64 Professional on it to get the best performance out of my system. According to this website, it seems the only way to get the x64 version of Windows is when purchasing a new PC? Does anyone know of another way to get it? Can I purchase Windows XP Professional and upgrade it somehow? What about if I download the trial version, is there an upgrade for that? Any help would be appreciated!

    - USB harddisk clogs I have a Toshiba 40GB 4200rpm harddisk connected externally via USB 2.0. Sometimes when writing a medium-sized file to it (say, 150MB) the write happened at too high a speed. That sounds promising, but it isn't :) Usually the write is a copy from my internal harddisk to the USB harddisk. The internal harddisk is obviously a magnitude faster, and it seems to me the write happens at the speed of the internal harddisk. Between 50 and 70 MB per second. The problem is that the OS reports the write as being done, but the USB disk is still physically writing out the file. I think what happens is that some kind of (very large) write cache is being filled up and eventually flushed as it's no longer being appended to. On it's own, this is not that big a problem. The problem with this "cache" is that so long as this "cache" is being flushed after the file copy has been completed, every and all access to the USB disk is being blocked (postponed to when the "cache flush" is complete, to be exact). Now, I know harddisks can have an OS-level write cache in Windows, but I also know that for USB Mass Storage devices, this cache is disabled by default. I also know that I didn't touch that setting (witnessed by the fact that the drive's policy is set to "Optimize for quick removal", so no OS-level write cache, iinm). Any thoughts on this? -- Thanks, Martijn Saly Tag: can 64 be loaded on home edition Tag: 23787

    - Pop Up Folder Descriptions in Explorer I'm trying to load a bunch of my CD on to my computer for use with a MP3 player. I load the CD's OK. But when I go into Windows Explorer and put the cursor over the file my all is get is "MP3 File" and "3.23mb". If I load the same CD on my other computer with XP Pro (32 Bit), when I put the cursor on the file I get, Song Title, Artist, Album Name, Track Number, Size, Year. I have tried the same software on both computer, iTunes 6.0.1 and Exact Audio Copy with LAME. The file are fine just not all the information is there on the x64 OS machine. I figure if I'm going to load all these CD's I might as well have all the text information avaliable. So what do I need to do to get the description to appear ??

    - XP 64 freezes shortly after "loading preferences" I'm trying to confirm that my ultra-mega Win-XP 64-bit PC; 1. GigaByte 955-Royale 64-bit motherboard 2. 3.24 GHz 64-bit Intel dual-core Pentium-D 3. Maxtor 300 Gb SATA hard drive 4. 1 Gb Kingston DDR RAM stick 5. ATI XL-800 64-bit AGP card 6. 27" Viewsonic HDTV monitor 7. Logitech Optical / Cordless mouse / keyboard 8. Logitech 280-watt 5.1 Dolby THX (OK, now I'm just bragging!) has a virus-related problem and is not suffering from a hardware-related failure. The system has been running fine since its birth in mid-July 2005. The PC freezes after I boot-up Win-XP 64-bit; a few seconds after my apps (Avast 64-bit AV, MS-Outlook 2003, etc.) begin to pre-load. I tried to repair Windows with the CD, but the installation's repair process freezes-up during the portion that says "Windows will finish installing in 37 minutes." I ran check CHKDSK /R (twice) from the CD's recovery console: All was well. I figured if there was a memory (stick) issue, it might have been reported. I also figured, if the memory-stick was defective, the PC would have froze during the 90-120 minute CHKDSK /R process; but it didn't. Based upon those observations, I'm thinking a stinking virus(that Avast didn't catch)!!! The ultimate question is; "Where is the 64-bit bootable CD that scans my BIOS and hard drive without my potentially corrupt Win-XP 64-bit OS being booted??? After-all; isn't that the most effective way to scan; without the primary (potentially infected) OS being booted??? If this is not (yet) an FAQ, I'm sure it soon will be!!! I'd like to hear your thoughts (and reccomendations). Meanwhile, I'll be trying "system restore" after I read the few articles written about some of the caveats. Thanx!

And , come to think of it , why is this NOT an option by default - like Eject is ??

    - AMD Opteron: 1-way, 2-way, ... Up to 8-way. Sorry if I'm a pest... Could someone point me in the right direction or explain the concept behind that. "The AMD Opteron? processor is offered in three series: the 100 series "(1-way), the 200 series (Up to 2-way), and the 800 series (Up to 8-way)." What does it do in multiple ways? Which kind of user or what kind of application would benefit from the different 1 or 2-way chips? I know for sure I have no need for 8-way, but I would like to know the trade off between saving now and sacrificing future performance between the 100 and 200 series.

    - How to recover efi nvram entry for Windows ? Hi! I accidentally deleted efi nvram entry for Windows at our Itanium server. So I cannot load Windows 2003 server anymore. I cannot restore this entry by utility nvrboot.efi because there is no file BootNNNN in folder \EFI\Microsoft\WINNT50 on this machine (maybe someone deleted it earlier). Unfortunately nvrboot.efi doesn't allow to create simple _default_ efi nvram entry for Windows (unlike, for instance, Windows setup, which can do it during installation). And I cannot use file BootNNNN taken from other similar machine, because it contains other diskâ??s(or partitionâ??s) ID (something starting from â??Sigâ?¦â?? - as it appears in EFI shell). Itâ??s easy to see this ID on the problem machine (from EFI shell), but I cannot change it in BootNNNN (taken from another machine), because this file has non-text format !!! This machine is multi-booting (I have multiple versions of Linux installed on this machine), so I cannot afford to lose existing Linux's data on efi system partition - so, please, donâ??t even propose to reformat efi partition, reinstall windows, or something of that kind. I tried to boot to Recovery Console mode of Windows CD, but there are not any useful commands to create *default* efi nvram entry for Windows !!!! Absolutely insane recovery possibilities from M$ !!! - I DID NOT LOSE ANY UNIQUE DATA - I JUST WANT TO REPAIR THIS DAMN _DEFAULT_ ENTRY FOR THIS MACHINE. Is it possible to create somehow such a default entry (so simple thing!) without necessity to reinstall Windows !!!??? Tag: can 64 be loaded on home edition Tag: 23552

    - Setting affinity on dual core processor... Is there a way to permanently set affinity for a program on a dual core processor? I have AMD 64 x2 4200+ running Win XP Pro x64. I know you can go into task manager, right click process and select 'set affinity', but it only works for that time. When you reboot, it's back to dual. I think there is a Win 2000 registry program (InfFiltr?) that does this, but I'm pretty sure it won't work on x64. Is there any program, or registry edit that can do this? Thanks in advance, Ken!

No. x64 Edition only comes in XP Professional. And in no case can a 64-bit
operating system be installed directly from within a 32-bit operating
system. It is only available as a "fresh install". That generally means
formatting your hard drive partiton where x64 Edition will be installed.

If you have a 64-bit computer you can dual boot x64 on a second partition or
drive or wipe out Home and replace it with x64. You did not describe your
computer in any way, so no one can advise you further.
