Bootcamp - OSx on one hard drive and windows 7 64bit on another hard drive

I have browsed the forum and the net without getting a clear answer
Fact:
With optical bay and two hard drives there is a posibility to use two harddrives within the sam MacBook Pro. The reason is space and speed, I want loads of space to all my projects and i want to use SSD that are not so spacious.
Need:
I want OSx on primary hard drive, and win7 64bit on the drive in the optical bay, replacing the DVD.
Question:
Is there a posibility to set up bootcamp this way, and how does one procede to land in this solution.
Please help me with a clear answer.
// Daniel

Installing on multiple drives of course can be done.
I consider it normal, common sense approach.
Anyone with a Mac Pro (not laptop) or PC.
Dedicated boot drives for each OS.
Dedicated data drives.

  • Solution Center problem with HP Office Jet J4550 and windows 7 (64bit)

    Hello All,
    I have a problem. I have the Solution Center and a HP Office Jet J4550 and windows 7 (64bit). When ever I open the solution center, the solution center says " HP office jet J4550 series disconnected" When I open HP document manager, I can access the printer.  Additionally, when I run the HP Print Diagnostic Utility 4.0, it sees the printer, no issues. I can print test pages. No issues. I downloaded the latest driver from the HP site (OJJ4500_Full_13, 299,359KB) Your insight is appreciated.
    Thank you
    Roy B

    I have a similar problem with the J4580 and my new Windows 7 64-bit laptop.  HP Solution Center says that the printer is disconnected.  Furthermore, it can print some documents (short ones), but it was unable to print a 1-page 5MB pdf file.  The printer truncated the page after printing just the top 10%.   The printer is OK with my wife's Windows 7 32-bit laptop.
    I've seen many other people complain about similar problems in this and other forums.  Apparently the driver for J4500 printers is not compatible with Windows 7 64-bit.  Can HP please provide an updated driver or patch?

  • Microphone , Audigy Se and Windows 7 64bit

    *Microphone , Audigy Se and Windows 7 64bit's I have wasted several hours today trying to resolve this issue upto and including trawling the internet for a solution and completely removing and reinstalling drivers from disc and updating twice. Ultimately I downloaded an update from WIndows - Absolutely nothing, nada works!
    I have the Mic Jack for my headphones plugged into the blue line in port - tried and tested on my system card (which works) but I consistently get Line--in Currently Unavailablke for this port suggesting that Creative are totally out to lunch on this one.
    I have right-clicked and set levels, tried setting it as default, etc, etc, etc... nothing.
    Has anyone succesfully got their mic to work uunder Win 7 64bit's
    - Love how it says on the box that Vista nad WIn 7 are supported,,,? guess the partially bit was omitted!
    I loathe wondows on any given day of the week but my Mac is currently down so I have no choice but to use this, my wifes machine... NOthiong but lost time whereas if I were on the mac I would be using that time producti'vely, with working software too I might add!
    Hope someone has a fix for this because this machine is just one reboot away from going out the frogging window!!!

    'sHi,
    Are you using this driver? Are you getting no sound from your microphone or is nothing being recorded?
    Please go to Control Panel, Sound make sure that the Microphone option is set as default and that the mic levels are adjusted accordingly, not mute.
    If this is not working for you, Customer Support can be contacted using this http://support.creative.com/Downloads/searchdownloads.aspx?filename=

  • Install only 32bit version of AX Flash Player for IE8 and Windows 7 64bit

    Hi,
    For several reasons I would like to install only the 32bit version of Flash Player AX for IE 8 and Windows 7 64bit.
    It was possible to do it when the installers where separated but I see no information how to do that now.
    It is very convenient for me to have my 64 bit IE 8 browser without Flash that I use to browse and not get annoyed by the flash on the web and use the 32bit IE 8 on youtube, vimeo, etc when flash is necessary.
    I hope the option to choose which version to install will get back if it is not possible now.
    Please let me know if such kind of request should be made somewhere else as new feature or whatever.
    Thank you.

    That was the first thing I tried. It either works on both or disables on both versions. Something is messed with the settings as well, or has been made that way on purpose. Also the next thing I tried was to uninstall only the part residing in System 32 (leaving the one in SysWOW64) but the result was both not working after the uninstall. It remained in Programs but wasn't working anymore in both versions of IE 8. So I just put back the latest 32bit version which is not security wise..

  • Audigy 2 Value and Windows 7 64bit driver don't work

    my first Audigy SE before Audigy 2 Value (SB0400) worked perfect on Windows 7 64bit
    with Audigy 2 Value SB0400 i tried 3 drivers , including the beta from the creative support , original and daniel_k driver and after reboot the windows hangs at LOGO and stays there.

    Re: SB Audigy 2 ZS and Windows 7 - Full Package driver?T While Creative has written new drivers and some applications for Windows 7/Vista for the Audigy, they have not re-written or updated all of the original applications on the CD. This card is very old now. What Daniel K. did was take all of the applications or most of them, and tweaked them to properly install and include themselves in the registry on operating systems other than Windows XP. For the full and most recent package, check here:
    http://forums.creative.com/t5/Sound-...009/td-p/53838
    If the application you want is not included in his package, then you can try downloading the official Creative version and install it on your system in "compatibility mode" by right clicking the file, and choosing properties, and then the compatibility tab and choosing "Windows XP service pack 2 or 3" and it may or may not function.

  • Secured HDD and Windows 7 64bit

    I Buy a Secured 500 HDD. I am very nomadic and connect to any type of computer.
    My portable is: Windows 7 64bit
    At home i have: Vista 32 bit
    At the customer's site: any type of OS
    I am no able to install the bundled software (biologin) in Windows 7. The error i receive refer to an incorrect digital signature.
    There is a driver for this OS ?
    I cannot find one in support & downloads.

    I had the same problem.
    I have already contacted Toshiba support.
    They told me this is a problem of Driver's Signature. They are not compatible with Windows 7 64bit.
    They told me that Windows 7 is not in the compatibility list and maybe no updated drivers will be deployed.
    I this this is a kind of joke. Toshiba still sells this product but it is not compatible with current Microsoft OS.
    I will never buy Toshiba products if this is its support.

  • Y410 and windows 7 64bit

    Since upgrading to windows 7 64bit I have a couple items that I can't seem to find drivers for. I look in my device manager and there are 3 items that are not working correctly. Two of them say Base Sysytem Device and one say Unknown Device.
    Any help with these is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Probably the card reader. Try the Vista 64 driver
    for your model of laptop and type of card reader
    if available.

  • Bootcamp 2.1 won't install on Windows 7 64bit

    I downloaded the 64bit Bootcamp and tried to install on Windows 7 64bit Retail Edition (RTM) and Bootcamp won't run. I tried compatability mode for Windows Vista 64 bit with and without SP2.
    I need sound drivers. Everything else works on my Mac.
    HELP

    Install RealTek drivers for sound.
    Maybe the 2.0.x Boot Camp drivers didn't get installed. You have to have those first.
    Also.... 2.1 is OLD as the hills and was only for SP3 really, nothing there to improve on W7 or Vista SP1/2.

  • Show and Share with IE8 and Windows 7 64bit

    So we are running 5.2.1, and we create a live event. We have a Windows 7 64bit machine running IE8 in 32-bit mode. Everything appears to start fine, the video plays, we get audio, slides load, the different frames pop up etc etc. However, after a time the video will halt and slide updates will stop. It's almost like it just drops the connection due to inactivity. If the user shuts down the browser completely are goes back to the page it will display fine once more only to stop after so many minutes of playing once again. I've messed around with the flash settings to no avail, and have yet to find anything in IE that could account for this. Maybe I'm overlooking something, anyone have any ideas?

    Well now it seems that I have another problem too. Now my iTunes can't find my iPad at all, no error messages or anything.
    Now the error message was one of these 4: (0xE8000065)(0xE800000a)(0xE800006b)(0xE8000001)
    I can't remember which it was because I can't get any error messages anymore.
    By the way, here is a list of what I have done already to make things work.
    -uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes 9.1 many, many times in different folders too.
    -updated all my drivers
    -checked that windows can find my iPad and it does.
    -Shut down my F-Secure firewall ect. and trying to connect iPad then.
    -I have done everything what you possibly can from this site http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3221
    -my USB ports work fine with every other devices like my 500gb harddrive, mouse, keyboard ect. and I have tried to disconnect every other USB devices except iPad and still not working.
    I'll try deleting my USB drivers now, reinstall them and even if after doing all that and iPad still not connecting to iTunes.. well then it's our of my league, I don't know anything more to do.
    Oh, and by the way. I called to Apple support and they only said that there shouldn't be any problems with Windows 7 and iTunes and they couldn't help me very much.. And my iPad works fine with other computers that are in my house.

  • Snow Leopard Boot Camp and Windows 7 64bit

    I have a late 2006 Mac Pro with 2xDual Core 2.66ghz procs and 6 gigs of ram. I've been thinking of running Windows 7 64 bit in Boot Camp for a few games and had an EFI question. I searched thru the forum but can't seem to find an answer (possibly my own ignorance of not understanding, but that's not the point).
    Since I'm running 32bit EFI will I be able to run the 64 bit version of Win7 in boot camp or am I limited to 32bit version?

    It is a PITA.
    Install a 32-bit version, as a mini-OS to bootstrap yourself into 64-bit;
    Or, modify the DVD you will burn by editing the ISO, which can be done with VirtualBox etc.
    I did it multiple times and posted a long rambling thread over on Boot Camp AD.
    It is weird.
    For fun, I install W7 x64 on PC, moved it over to Mac Pro and Windows gracefully just updated all the needed chipset drivers for me.
    As usually, there are multiple ways to do anything.
    Pull Mac drive and system, install a RAW drive or format as MBR and MSDOS, you'll want 3-4 partitions or multiple drives.
    By using 32-bit version, you can then create a couple volumes.
    8GB for editing the ISO and DVD or to run the installer from. This is a very fast way to do any install. Same idea works with Mac OS and restoring the DVD to disk.
    When you burn Win7 DVD, do so at slow/reduced speeds.
    20GB for first Win7 32-bit partition.
    Whatever you want for x64.
    Data volume?
    A 64-bit can't be installed over 32-bit, but it will install to another volume all while you are booted into Windows 7 x32.
    It took some playing around.
    Modifying the ISO with a Windows utility worked, once but I never got the hang to do it again, kept getting unbootable copies and wasted DVDs.
    Intel has UEFI 2.3 as the latest and I have been tempted to become EFI Group membership just to nuke the olde EFI32 - I now work mostly on a pair of i7 machines running 7.

  • Production Premium CS4 and Windows 7 64bit

    How is Production Premium CS4 working with Windows 7 64bit?  Is it compatible?
    I checked the System Requirements and it does not mention Windows 7.
    I just wanted to check and see what other user experiences have been like.
    Anything to look out for?
    Thanks!

    CS 4.1 worked the same as under XP. I think I had some minor issue with DL & AE. Don't clearly remember because I've been using CS5.5 since it came out. If you can afford the upgrade, Just Do It! You get Audition and lots of 64-bit power & speed. If you've got a decent nVidia card, downoad the CUDA hack (which basically consists of changing one line of text so the card is recognized) and get even more juice.
    CS5.5 is Da Bomb!
    ....Or you could buy a Mac and go with FCPX. Now there's a real bomb!!!....LOL, ROFL,

  • Huey Pro and Windows 7 64bit Issues

    Hi there, having problems I am afraid. If I calibrate my two monitors with the Huey pro all works fine except when I run LR 3.0. None of the thumbnails or pictures display at all. They are there as I can see the histogram for each one. Delete the huey profiles and pictures appear again, but unfortunately I loose my calibrations. Running the latest Huey software and windows 7 has all the updates. Any suggestions, and many thanks for looking? Chris

    Are you creating V4 profiles? If so create V2 profiles. I beleve LR is one of those programs that doesn't like V4.
    I also just found this on the X-rite website.
    The huey display calibrator is not designed to calibrate multiple monitors attached to the same computer. If you have dual monitors and your video card supports multiple monitor calibrations, you should check out the higher-end display calibrators such as the i1 Display 2 or i1 Display LT.
    If you have two monitors connected to your computer, huey calibrates the monitor that has been designated as the primary monitor. (The primary monitor is the one with the task bar. Monitor designation is done in the Mac System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement or Windows Control Panel > Displays > Settings.)
    You may be able to calibrate both monitors if you first designate one as the primary, calibrate it, then designate the second as the primary, and calibrate that. However, this is not a supported feature and may not work with all video cards and monitors. The software for i1 Display, on the other hand, lets you move the display calibration interface to whichever monitor you want to calibrate.

  • CS3 dds drivers and Windows 7 64bit issue

    I have photoshop CS3 working however I can't load the dds drivers. I've tried everything see below. Anyone been able to load the Nvidia dds drivers?
    What is the proper proceedure to effectively install the DDS files in CS3 in a windows 7 64 bit environment?
    I tried the 32 bit and 64 bit files and when I use the 32 bit file i get an error opening up photoshop that says missing D3x9_43.dll, and I don't have the option to save in a .dds format. If I uninstall the dds 32 bit program the missing D3x9_43.dll error goes away.
    When I load 64 bit version no errors but I still don't have the option to save in .dds format. Kind of frustrating..................
    I've just uninstalled and cleaned CS3. I've done a new fresh load of CS3. What are the correct steps from here?
    Which file should I download? etc.
    Thank you in advance.
    Ok, I've tried everything I can find.
    I let the 32 bit dds program load to a seperate folder and manually transfered the files to the proper folders in Photoshop and still get the same results as above. I tried renaming them and removing the 32 extensions and still no go. I did the same thing with the 64 bit program and still no go.
    The 32 bit program said it was still looking for the D3X9_43.dll file for some reason. I haven't tried downloading that file since I don't know where to put it.
    Can someone please help me. Has anyone got the DDS files to work with CS3 and Windows 7?
    Thank you
    Bill

    Got it fixed. I loaded the drivers from my old XP machine. drivers are from 2007. Don't remember where I got them from but they worked.  I can save dds files again.
    Thank you for the reply.

  • Elememnts and Windows 7 64bit

    Will Elements 5 and/or 6 run properly on Windows 7 64 bit please

    Not officially.  Some have run it anyway and identified some of the pieces that don't work.  Even PSE 7 was not officially compatible although it only had a few minor things that didn't work.  PSE 8 was the first to officially support Windows 7 64bit.
