internet access blocked
I am using Firefox web browser with Windows XP64 to view mapquest.com,
but after a minute or two of pushing the map around web access is
completely non functional. Internet explorer is also non functional. I
have already asked my ISP about this. They had me change or enable my
activex and reboot my computer and router but abviousely it has not
helped. If I reboot my computer and router and wait a while I am able to
get back to normal operation.
What is mapquest doing that messes my system up? Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44944
XPx32 to Vistax64 switch - Indecisive
I'd like to switch from XP Pro x32 to Vista Ultimate x64 but all the talk of
software and driver compatibility problems has me 'frightened' to make the
switch. If I do switch, I'd buy Vista Ultimate x64 at retail. My PC is OK
for it. I have an HP xw6200 workstation with dual Xeon 3.6GHz CPUs and 5GB
RAM installed (2 2-GB DIMMS and 2-51 GB DIMMS.) I have 5GB because HP
wouldn't sell the xw6200 here in Canada without the two 512s installed. I'll
be replacing them with two 2GB DIMMS if I upgrade the OS. From the HP
website, the HP ixw6200 is Vista x64 compatible and drivers are available for
all the internal hardware (sound & video cards, DVD burners, etc.. I have
dual 23" wide-screen displays off an nVidia Quadro FX4400. card I've
provided a list of my main software and hardware peripherals below. I've
tried to check the manufactures' sites for compatibility but it gets pretty
confusing. I've read several other threads here that make me think moving to
x64 is a wise thing for me to do but I'm still concerned about how much of my
software and peripherals will not work. I hope I'm not being too 'selfish'
by asking for opinions on my specific situation. How many things won't work?
I need a feel for exactly how messy this switch would be.
Software: Many Adobe applications including, PS CS2 (running CS3 Beta),
Premiere Pro 1.5, After Effects 6.5, Audition 1.5, Acrobat 7. Microsoft
Office 2000 Pro (although I don't mind upgrading to Office 2007 if I have to)
IIS 5.1, Nero 6 Ultra, Trend PC-illiin 2007, and over 100 lesser know
programs, like WinFax, Quicken, Tax software, FlipAlbum, Panorama Factory,
GPS and mapping software and much, much more.
Hardware peripherals: Epson scanner V750 Pro (x64 drivers available), Nikon
CoolScan IV, Canopus ADVC-300, Wacom graphics tablet model ET, a Palm OS PDA
(Sony Clie), 7 external HDs (some Firewire and some USB), a USB connected MP3
player, a Bluetooth USB adapter for my cell phone, 2 DVD HP burners (know to
have x64 Vista drivers), an external USB phone modem for faxing, 2 USB
connected digital cameras, one Firewire connected video camera, a Garmin
Vista GPS (ironic eh?) that connects via the workstation's serial port. Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44937
OT Request for Comments
Sorry to post this in this group as it is way off topic, but, there are a
lot of switched on people in here
I've just got in from seeing a client
I built a machine for him close on 12 months ago
Some of the USB ports have failed so I have had to install another main
board
I explained to the client that because of the way oem Windows works I would
have to install a fresh copy of Windows
This I bought and have not charged for
I also explained that this would mean a complete reformat of his hard drive
with total loss of data and he should back up everything he see's fit
He said that he backs everything up but would I do the same
I agreed and asked him if he keeps everything in his Document and Settings
folder or does he keep any data in any other locations
He said that everything was in his Documents and Settings folder
When I picked up his machine he added the fact that there were some emails
that were very important and he must have them restored
He asked if I could back them up and I said yes and backed up his Outlook
Express folder
The upshot is that when I have returned his machine and set up a firewall,
antivirus software, anti malware/spyware software
And configured his email client and restored all of his email
And, then installed his Office suite
And then installed his printer
He then says where is all the stuff on my desktop
To cut a long story short I had to say is that it did not exist any more
It appears that there were some [very] important documents on there
His argument is that I should have told him he should have backed up his
desktop
My argument is that if any data is important then it should be backed up on
at least a daily basis
I couldn't explain this as he was in a state of total loss of control and I
really thought he was going to physically atack me
He also said that he will be sueing me
Can anyone suggest my best course of action here
My initial feelings are to email him and explain that all I had to do was to
replace his main board and install the Windows operating system
Any data and programs should have been his responsibility
The additional work was PR
Given that a lot of people here work in the IT industry do you think this is
a good idea or should I let him talk to his legal people who may tell him
that he should have backed up his system first, before allowing the format
of a hard drive, and then let him get back to me
This is the first time I've been in this position and hope that if someone
has been in this situation themselves they could let me know how they
handled it
Again, sorry this is so off topic but the only people that may have
experienced this are here

Vista 64 and Kodak Easyshare problem
I have downloaded and installed the latest version of Kodak Easyshare
software. After rebooting, the software loads, and then I get an error that
states
"Thunking spooler APIS from 32 to 64 process has stopped working"
and it goes through checking for solutions from Microsoft, and ends the
process. Easy share works to the extent that it opens and runs, but you
cannot print from within the program. Anybody else experienced this? Any
ideas? I've searched Kodak's website, and find no mention of this problem,
and very sketchy information about it period. Also searched Microsoft's
Knowledge Base to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Vista 64 Lockups
Just got win vista 64 bit home premium. did not install any drivers 1st off,
tried some games, movie files, etc and the computer freezes forcing a hard
reset. tried installing nvidias chipset and video drivers with the same
thing. tried my sound blaster audigy 2 zs gamer-same, removed it then tried
the onboard sound and it still locks soon as i start something that utilizes
demanding video. everything else seems fine, web browsing, email, usenet etc.
It tells me that every nvidia driver was not digitally signed and a couple of
times i had a 'windows failed to start because one or more files could not be
authentically verified' or some similar message. is there a way to disable
the driver verification in this ver of windows? or anyone else experience
similar behavior and how to fix? much thanks for any info provided.

change 32Bit in 64Bit?
Hallo!
I bought a version of WinXP SP2 Pro with the "Vista for Free" package. All
works fine & in a few days I'll hopefully get my version of Vista Business.
BUT:
Since the time came, I upgraded my computer to a Core2Due CPU and now I want
to run a Vista in 64Bit.
So my question:
Do I have to buy an second Vista in 64Bit or is it true that all DVDs have
both Versions (32 & 64bit) included? As you can imagine, I'm not willing to
buy jet another version, becaus money don't grow on trees today!

Media Player11 not playing WMV files

any WMV files my computer completely slows down to almost a non-working

This is using the media player 11 which says it is for XP64 but I noticed

I have updated all drivers for video and sound. And this is really the only
issue I have with XP 64.

for a "minimal fee" but everytime I enter my serial it says "there are no
available upgrades for your package." I have Vista home Premium and I know
the 64-bi version excists so whats the deal? Is there anyway I can download
the ISO of the 64-bit from microsoft or somethin? Because I know the fee will

Apropos since the OS on my new system is a VISTA ultimate.
oh btw why is it that alot of Hardware oriented sites still uses XP

Problem with loading install from XP cd room with XP 64 @ HD.
Got one raptordisk ----> XP 64 pro
Problem: need a fast reliable way to switch back and forwards XP 64 pro and
XP home version ^^eg. Fdisk,format,xp setup boot from cd whatever BUT the xp
vanillahome OEM disk keeps booting xp64 without giving me the option of
nuking my xp 64 pro INSTALL.
ofc I have tried to setup up BOOT cd room from Bios, but to no avail i keeps
jumping straight to the logon screen in XP 64 pro instead of giving me the
BSOWDYWTD (Blue screen of "what do you want to do") essentially I can´t
access Fdisk I realise i could prolly try swapping around Hd´s and fiddling
around with startup disks.
There´s alot of advice that starts from Putting in a Win OS in the CD rom
drive and then getting *BOOTING of the cd sans LOADING the current WIN OS eg.
the options of having your way with WHATEVER is installed on ur Hd´s but the
part BEFORE that is what I´m asking about
But most of all I want to ID the sources of these errors.
USB keyboard?
BIOS Version?
Other hardware?
I can not see why hardware should be an issue here since I can boot the OS
and have no problem running it. Is there a way FORCE fdisk or DOS prompt on
reboot? Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44735

framedyn.dll at http://www.jarra.nl/indes.php?p=69.
All suggestions found at http://www.jarra.nl/indes.php?p=69 to fix my problem
with framedyn.dll have not worked. I do not have Spybot anymore all the
others did. Could that be the problem. If it is how do I correct it without
downloading spybot again. Would Quicktim Player still be part of the problem
too?
Would I be able to have Windows XP Professional downloaded from Microsoft
If I have proof tha I did buy my first program. How do I go about this? Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44724
framedyn.dll & http://www.jarra.nl/index.php?p=69
Everyone that had the same problem was able to find a solution because they
all had Spybot on their computer and Quicktime Player was causing the
problems. There solution was to remove quicktime player from interfering with
Spybot. I have done the oposite, I uninstalled Spybot. I am assuming since I
no longer have Spybot that is what is causing the problem. Do I have to have
Spybot in order to correct this? I really didn't care for it and didn't need
it. Could that be why I cann't locate framedyn.dll anywhere in my computer?
Do I still need to try to see if Quicktime Player is interfering some how and
where would I look? Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44721
running the adobe flash player HELP
I am running windows xp x64 and cannot run the adobe flash player unless I
change the browser settings to 32 (according to their tech page). What are
the implications for this to my system? Will it effect other programs? And if
it's OK to do, HOW the heck do I do it? Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44719
framedyn.dll
This message appears everytime I try to open microsoft word 2000 and several
other programs including system restore. " framedyn.dll was not found try
reinstalling it." I've tried over and over and I cannot fix it.
When I try to pull up microsoft word 2000 the initial picture will come up
on the screen but then it does nothing but sits there until I finally have to
turn off the computer. You can't minimize it, expand it or close it. The
message about framedyn.dll comes up on several different programs but I can
at least close them out.
I have a feeling that what they are supposed to open with has been changed.
Some of them for example are trying to open with "500200_inventory" Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44715

Product key
I have built my self a new system for microsoft Vista 64 .I have put the OEM
version onto my system and i am now being told that the product key is
already in use .I have had to reinstall the software as some of the drivers
were not signed ? Therefore because i had to reinstall the os ,is it saying
that the product key is already in use becuase i had to reinstall the os ? or
is it becuase i got the OEM version and just put it straight onto the machine
without using the OPK kit , that it is not activating ? or lastly but not
least , have a got a copy ? in that case i will bring it back to the shop ?
any help would be much appreicared Babs Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44695
IIS 6.0 and .Net 1.1 2.0 on windows server x64
We are building a new server for the web and I am thinking of getting it
with the 64 bit version of windows so I can utilize the above 4GB memory
support without going enterprise.
I have several web sites, some are ASP.Net 2.0 but most are ASP.Net 1.1
I read that I can make IIS 6.0 run in 32 bit mode but does that mean all
sites are run on 32 bit mode or just 1.1 sites, how does that impact
performance?
Thanks

Svchost / wsmprov.dll problems
Hi
I am running Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 SP1.
I am getting this message once every minute:
"...Faulting application svchost.exe, version 5.2.3790.1830, faulting module
WsmProv.dll, version 5.2.3790.2075, fault address 0x00000000000014dc.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp...."
The link is pointless, as it is just general information. I'm not sure
that it's actually doing any harm, but I don't like the mesage.
Has anybody any ideas please?
Thanks Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44680
Realtek Soundcard
I've installed Vista Ultimate 64bit a few times and usually my onboard
realtek souncard has worked. But now that I'm wanting to keep the install
that I have, no sound. I have a HP Pavilion a1450n computer. HP only has
soundcard drivers for the 32bit version of Vista and the realtek drivers
won't install.
If I select the realtek soundcard from device manager I get the BSOD (stop
message). Using the drivers from realtek does no good either. I have 3
soundcards, 2 M-Audio cards, and none work. Does anyone have any
suggestions? I've tried every driver imaginable with no luck. I've thought
of reformatting and starting over thinking since it worked at one point
maybe I have a bad install. Thanks for any suggestions. Tag: timbear2@charter.net Tag: 44676
