64 bit and 32 bit architecture

Hello,
I've been trying to understand the principal of MDT 64bit architecture and MDT 32 bit architecture.
The architecture refers to the WIM boot image I'm adding to WDS (Boot image: Add Boot image) or to the MDT? If to MDT in what manner?
The reason I'm asking is that I need to inject a package (Microsoft windows fix:
kmdf-1.11-Win-6.1-x64.msu)
to my image (according to this site) to fix a problem I'm having. When running the command and trying to
inject the 64bit fix, the command fails, and when doing the same thing, but with the x86 fix, the operations succeed.
So i guess my environment is 32
bit, but I don't understand why for the OS
I capture is 64 bit OS, My WAIK is 64bit.
When performing what the site suggested (link above), I mount the WIM from my capture folder. Should I perform this on the WIM file from the DeploymentShare\Boot folder?
This question link to another issue I'm having, when trying to open the unattend.xml file from within the MDT TS (TS - OS Info - Edit Unattend.xml) I'm getting an error, when looking for a solution on the net I encounter a solution where I need to open the
'Windows System Image manager' from the WAIK installation, add the windows image
i want and make the xml
i want, but then I'm getting an error saying I cannot add 32 bit xml to 64
bit (or vice versa).
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I think it doesn’t matter which MDT architecture to use. It does matter the system architecture you are deploying.
According to your description, you are trying to deploy windows 7 x64 version which is captured form another computer. I guess you chose the wrong boot image. In case any
problem occur, use an original windows 7 x64 image. You can find boot.wim in sources folder.
I recommend you use WSIM to create the unattended file, you won’t make any mistake with it.
Hope this helps.

Byte to bit and bit to byte conversion

Hello,
Does anyone know how to covert a byte into an array of booleans and vice versa? I think it has something to do with bitwise operations like >>.
Thanks.

If this right:
    public static byte bitsToByte(boolean[] bits)
          return bitsToByte(bits, 0);
    public static byte bitsToByte(boolean[] bits, int offset)
          int value = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
               if(bits[i] == true)
                    value = value | (1 << i);
        return (byte)value;
     }

What is difference between 32 bit and 64 bit sql server memory management

What is difference between 32 bit and 64 bit sql server memory management
Thanks
Shashikala

This is the basic difference...check if helps:
A 32-bit CPU running 32-bit software (also known as the x86 platform) is so named because it is based on an architecture that can manipulate values that are up to 32 bits in length. This means that a 32-bit memory pointer can store a value between 0 and
4,294,967,295 to reference a memory address. This equates to a maximum addressable space of 4GB on 32-bit platforms
On the other hand 64-bit limit of 18,446,744,073,709,551,616, this number is so large that in memory/storage terminology it equates to 16 exabytes. You don’t come across that term very often, so to help understand the scale, here is the value converted to
more commonly used measurements: 16 exabytes = 16,777,216 petabytes (16 million PB)➤ 17,179,869,184 terabytes (17 billion TB)➤ 17,592,186,044,416 gigabytes (17 trillion GB)➤
As you can see, it is signiﬁcantly larger than the 4GB virtual address space usable in 32-bit systems; it’s so large in fact that any hardware capable of using it all is sadly restricted to the realm of science ﬁction. Because of this, processor manufacturers
decided to only implement a 44-bit address bus, which provides a virtual address space on 64-bit systems of 16TB. This was regarded as being more than enough address space for the foreseeable future and logically it’s split into an 8TB range for user mode
and 8TB for kernel mode. Each 64-bit process running on an x64 platform will be able to address up to 8TB of VAS.

Windows 7 activation key is working on 32-bit and 64-bit?

Hello, I purchased a Ideapad U350 which came with a preinstalled copy of Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit. Because I upgraded the RAM memory to 4GB but my 32-bit OS architecture use only 2,84GB, so I want to install a fresh copy of Windows 7 Home Premium but 64-bit version. The question is (to avoid buying a whole new Win 7 license) will the product key that came with my copy of Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit also work on a copy of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit? Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You're right! I did not use a OEM version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit instead and this may be the reason why my OEM key for Win 7 Home Premium 32-bit was not accepted. Anyway, I reinstalled the 32-bit version which came on the hidden partition because few days ago I installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit instead of Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit and RAM usable memory is the same: 2,84GB!!! I did a clean install formatting C: but I did not format and delete the hidden OEM partition which came with Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit. After installation usable RAM was 3,84GB. I installed critical & recommended windows updates + the software I'm using the most, restarted my PC and surprise: usable RAM was 2,84GB!!! So it's no use to install 64-bit version...my usable RAM is still 2,84. That's why I switched back to 32-bit version.

Dual disk usage, 32 bit and 64 bit

Heres what I have. I bought a dual disk Windows 7. One disk is 32 bit the other 64 bit. I have the 64 bit (disk-1), on my desktop and all is well. I have a laptop with windows Vista, it's a proprietary computer, an Acer. What I want to find
out is can I install The Windows 7 -32 bit (disk-2) on my laptop, and run the 64 bit on my desktop. Is it legal to do this over top of the Vista 32 bit laptop.
Thank you,
Steve

No, it's not legal to use a single license in two different PCs at the same time. A product key is considered as a license. Even though two disk are provided, only a single product key will be provided, meaning, only one license but can be used with different
architectures.Two disks are provided for 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. These two releases can be used in a single PC only, and can even be at the same time as dual boot, but not in two different PCs.

Separate GPO for 32-bit and 64-bit machines?

Before I give myself a whole load of work wanted to confirm this either way...
We're imaging both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7 this summer (x86 for app compatibility and x64 for Adobe CS6 etc). So far I've made a full working policy for x86 but now need to do x64.
When I created the initial policy on a 32-bit machine the ZCM console automatically seems to add a requirement of Architecture = 32-bit which suggests the policy can only be used on that version of the OS - do I need to create a separate x64 policy from scratch or can the x86 GPO be applied (and work consistently and be supported) on the x64 machines?

Yes unfortunately you have to create your policies with the bit version of
the OS. So you have to do it with a 32bit and 64bit machine.

Performance 32 bit and 64 bit

Hi
On a 64 bit machine I can install 32 bit and 64 bit Oracle. Which solution gives better performance?

Hi,
Depending on windows or unix/linux i suppose the significance changes - i'm also assuming we are talking about Oracle Database performance here.
Given that the Oracle architecture on unix/linux is a process per user connection and on windows is a single process using a thread (or 2) per user connection the virtual address space available to an oracle instance is completely different. in a 32-bit the 2GB limit per process (or 3 with the /3GB switch, PAE/AWE) and single process architecture means that it doesn't scale very well in terms of concurrent connections (in the hundreds i think). Unix/linux in 32-bit does suffer from this so much as I understand because of the multi-process architecture.
However in 64-bit (EM64T/AMD64 or Itanium) this is not the case as virtual address space limits are much higher. Under windows 2003 x64 i think its something like 8TB per process. Now in theory windows is better at dealing with memory as a single oracle process has plenty of memory and all threads can share with minimal context switches.
The gap between EM64T and Itanium 2 is thought to be narrowing now. I was watching some video on [www.microsoft-oracle.com|www.microsoft-oracle.com] the other day and the guy was talking about some experiences where in lab environments they had discovered that the actual reason why an Itanium machine outperformed a EM64T was because of the L3 cache on the processor. video here

apologies for being a little windows biased, it's only because I have relatively more experience there.
hope some of this helps :)

Creation of Add-on package for 64 bit and 32 bit SAP Business One Client

Please help me creating package for 64 bit and 32 bit SAP Business One. If Add-on executable is compiled with x86 option then there is no issue of connecting Add-on with 32 bit SAP Business one and if Add-on executable is compiled with Any CPU option then there is no issue of connecting Add-on with 64 bit SAP Business one. Problems are mentioned as below
1. My Add-on uses MS ACCESS connection and the connection is read using Jet OLEDB 4.0 provider. It works fine for x86 compile mode but not when compile mode is Any CPU. I searched for the issue on Google and found a solution to change MS ACCESS connection provider to ACE.OLEDB.12.0 but again ACE provider is installed according to the Office version i.e. 32 bit or 64 bit office suite. If I install 32 bit ACE provider then Add-on executable compiled with x86 version is working fine but with Any CPU option throws error as provider is not registered on current machine.
2. Secodly, our license validation activex dll is build using vb 6.0 and therefore when Add-on executable is compiled using Any CPU option, Add-on EXE cannot read from license dll. Any suggestion, how the activeX dll can be compiled whose component can be created from for X86 compiled exe and any cpu compiled exe.
Please help because we are stuck in this issue and cannot move forward.
Thanks.

Hi Alejandro,
That is one solution but did your add on used ms access connection? if you used Jet oledb to connection string or ace oledb connection string? what if 32 bit office is installed and what if 64 office is installed? how did you found the office version in install script? after determining the office version how did you installed Microsoft redistributable for ace oledb (32 bit or 64 bi )?
I am sorry that I asked many questions but these are the problems where I am stuck with the addon installer?
Thanks

Install sqldeveloper on windows 7 64 Bit and Oracle 11.2

Hi,
how can I find the rigth jdk. I installed JDK on C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_23.
I installed Oracle 11.2 including sqldeveloper. But I cannot find the correct folder to start sqldeveloper.
Where can I find this path?
When I include a path with java.exe I get the error "Unable to find a Java Virtual Machine. To point to a locacion of a Java Virtual Machine, pleaser refer to the Oracle9i Jdeveloper Install guide (jdev\install.html)" Where can I find this?
Thank you for your help
Siegwin

I am on Windows 7 64 bit. I see that installing Oracle 11.2 database installs SQL Developer also but that doesn't work. I get the .bat file not found crap. What I then did was do a seperate install of SQL Developer for 64 bit, but that does NOT install the jdk.
I then did the java install from:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u25-download-346242.html
I selected: jdk-6u25-windows-x64.exe
I then point to the java.exe where this install loaded it (c:\program files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\bin when I start up sql developer and it still gives the same error. I delete the SetJavaHome value in the sqldeveloper.conf file and try again over and over but it still gives the same error.
So, I have windows 7 - 64 bit operating system. I have Oracle 11.2 database installed. I have a seperate installation of SQL Developer 64 bit and I have the java jdk for 64 bit installed.
Nothing is working. Can anyone please steer me in the correct direction? Should I delete the second install of SQL Developer 64 bit and to an install of SQL Developer 32 bit?
Please help

I downloaded the 64 bit version of Photoshop and I need the 32 bit and I cannot download it

CC, CC 64 Bit, and CC 2014? WTF?

It's bad enough Adobe can't figure out how to make the same features in one program work the same in a different program. To top it off, instead of improving what are now "apps" and integrating we now have more new programs to do the same thing (e.g. not just one for website creation, not just one for photos, not just one for illustrations, not just one for animation, etc...) and to top it off again they get rid of important programs like Soundbooth, and stop upgrading ones we need like Encore. I am beginning to think the CC is for Creative Chaos not Creative Cloud....
So, I uninstalled my CS5 master suite finally and moved presumably up to CC. But, now do I not only have more than one program to do the same thing more now I also have 3 of each! Wow! That's STUPID. Sorry, I hate using that word, but what in the hell?
Why is it when I go to my programs I have a CC version, a CC 64 bit, and now new to the Creative Chaos we have CC 2014 versions!!!! What? Really? Someone, please help me maintain my sanity. Before I realized it I was using Premiere CC then I inadvertantly started using CC 2014. Then I was like "something is missing, oh, wait, what? there's more than one version of premiere in CC???" Then I realized "oh, there's 3 of Illustrator, Photoshop, and inDesign?
I of course have a 64 bit system, so should I only use the 64 bit versions and just delete the shortcuts to the others? and when there isn't a 64bit version but instead just a CC and a CC2014 version, which do I use? I mean, I assume the CC 2014. But, in 2014 will something change, will I be like "damn it, I should have been using the CC not the CC2014"?
Adobe, please clean up all your software, boil it down to just the ones we need, we don't need more than one program to do THE SAME THING. and once you boil it down, don't give us three versions of it, ask "do you want the 64 bit version or the 32" and we'll be happy to download precisely what we need. Or better yet, figure out a way to make it work with one program. And, of course while you're at it combine the CC and CC XXXX version of each, WTF???

32bit programs are installed for those people who use plugins that have not been updated to 64bit
CC and CC2014 have different source code bases, so they are different programs

Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same Mac Pro HD?

Has anyone been able to install both Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Windows Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same dedicated Windows hard drive? I have four HD in my Mac Pro, and one of them is dedicated for Windows (and bootable via Boot Camp). I found the following technical articles about installing Windows XP & Vista on the same hard drive (using two separate partitions) using a VMWare machine as the test system:
http://apcmag.com/howto_dual_boot_vista_and_xp_with_vista_installed_first__the_stepbystepguide.htm

Has anyone successfully installed Windows XP (32-bit) and Vista 64-bit) on the same NTFS partition?
I already have Windows XP Pro (32-bit) SP3 installed on my single NTFS hard drive. I am looking for the best way to add the Vista 64-bit installation on the same hard drive.
Any thoughts and advise are appreciated.

Windows has its own list of boot OSs, and default, from msconfig. It will sit and wait for xx-seconds on startup in Windows if you want to boot from an alternate.
As to whether Apple's OS Switcher (aka startup disk bootcamp control panel or tray icon) sees both, I had Windows Home Premium and Ultimate 64, and pretty sure OS X saw both. That was pre-Leopard and before there were 64-bit Apple drivers.
I can't think of any scenerio of wanting to mix 32-bit and 64-bit on the same paritition, you realize you can't install the one over the other and must do a clean install.
When I added a partition out of main partition (I wanted to put search index and page file on their own partition) those partitions aren't seen - are hidden - to Leopard.

Install demo of CS4 Web Premium-Photoshop Installs 64 bit and x86 versions but 64 bit does not work

Just installed the CS4 Web Premium demo onto a brand new 64 bit i7 processor with Windows Seven Home Premium machine with 9gb memory. The install seems to be fine except it installed a 64 bit version as well as x86 version into different folders. The x86 version works fine but the 64 bit version does not.
Every time I try to open a file using "Open With' I get the following message "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application."
First of all why does it install both versions and why does it try to open everything in the 64bit version even after specifically telling it to open in the x86 version (even after setting the default file association to the x86 version.
I would of course like to use the 64 bit veriosn but if it not going to work. I'll use the 32 bit version. I just wantto be able to right click my mouse and be able to "Open With". I can open Photoshop 32 bit and open the file that way but it is a pain to do that way.
Any help would be appreciated

Both are installed to allow you to use 32 bit plugins. As for the problem, you'll get far more attention in the Photoshop forum.

I have a Windows 2003 Server 64-Bit, and when I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 now it won't run, it keeps saying to restart to complete the installation, but I've restarted theserver 4 times, and I still can't use it.

I ended up putting it in DFU mode. It's kinda hard to tell it was in DFU mode because nothing showed on the screen, it was just black, but the sounds from the computer helped to tell me it was connected.
Itunes still didn't recognize the device for whatever reason.
So I used redsn0w. I don't know if I can say that on these forums, but considering itunes was worthless at this point I am going to give credit where credit is due.
Now I am giving itunes a second chance to upgrade to 5.1, if it doesn't work, well, back to redsnow and maybe I will even jailbreak it this time rather than just using the fecovery fix found under extras.

But I still get the same error.
Can someone help?
Thanks!

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you still have trouble you might consider installing the alternate version iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards) where you can download a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of iTunes that works with older video cards. This version may also be useful for anyone who is unable to get the 64-bit version of Apple Application Support to install when using the itunes6464setup file, or has trouble with playback of certain video files despite having QuickTime installed.
