9i (r2) RAC install on Win 2k.

Hi,
Is it possible to build a "cheap" Win 2k 2 node RAC environment (similar to the linux environment built using firewire at http://otn.oracle.com/pub/articles/hunter_rac.html).
If not what are the options?
Thanks,
john

Hello,
You can always load VMWare on your windows machine (single hard drive) and then load Linux after creating a new VM. Then you can load RAC on Linux OS. I hope you are not planning to use this architecture for a production system :) .

Flash Player 10 Not installing on Win 7 64 bit PC

Flash Player 10 download goes through install procedure and says it is installed but it is not.
After that There is always a Flash Player Install file on the PC.
When I click on that it goes through the install procedure and says it is installed but it is not.
Have tried above install more than 6 different times. Also on my wife's new PC.
Always the same bad result.
These two new PC's are both on WIN 7 64 bit OS.

I tried the suggested method of uninstall and then install. Also the disable instructions for Norton AV.
Still no success. When I again check the list of programs in Control Panel for possible uninstall the Flash Player 10 has returned there.
But the player does not play when needed for some videos on Facebook, etc.
One thing I could not find to disable on Norton AV was "Smart Firewall." It was not in my NAV 2011.
Any other suggestions appreciated.

Hi, I would try this method and see if it works better. There is a link for FF(Firefox) If you don't use FF, ignore that. Also before you begin this procedure, I need to know what Anti-Virus/Spyware programs you have Installed. Some will block the Install of Flash Player and that needs to be taken care of first.
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for FF- use the EXE Installer for plugin based (from the same site)
Close all browser windows, you only want to be looking at your Desktop.
Disable any messenger services, as yahoo, msn, etc in the system tray(area near the clock)
Be sure to use the Administrator Account.
Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot(restart) your computer.
Run the Installer for IE, Run the Installer for FF(If needed/used) and when finished, Reboot.
Then go to this test site and test each browser:

You may want to print these instructions to make it easier to follow. If you have any questions, let me know.
Thanks,

How I do a clean install of Win 8.1

Since my initial post "Why is option to create striped volume grayed out in disk management?"
I have seen numerous threads re doing a clean install of Win 8.1. So I'm re-posting the info I got from Puget Systems http://www.pugetsystems.com/ when I RMA'ed the ZenBook back to The Egg and got a laptop that boots in 1.7 seconds and works.
Edit !That was time before any progs installed. Now that I everything on it's about 20 from hit restart to waiting on me enter P/W.
Regardless of your system the advice I got from PS before the system was even built here in the US should apply as I ordered it W/O an OS.
D/L Drivers from the systems Mfg. site. If it's a DIY Lego then from the Mfg. of products, i.e. chipset, video card, audio, etc.
When Windows begins install;
Choose Custom Install.
Uncheck Let Windows load drivers.
Uncheck any other options you don't want as well. I unchecked about everything and yet*
When OS is installed
Go into add/remove features and enable .NET Framework 3.5.
Restart Then load Drivers. As mentioned in other post I had already drivers Dl'd from Puget's site
and had in separate folder on flash drive.
This is by far the cleanest, best running Windows version I ever had on a system and have been installing since Win 95 A.
Hope this helps some of those who are having Clean Install issues.
* When I started IE 11 my Favorites were already there. ???? I had them Exported but not to Flash Drive yet. Does M/S have link to NSA?
Happy Clean Install to all!
Anymouse

Hi,
Thanks for your sharing on how to clean install Windows 8.1.
I am not sure about what you mean about NSA, would you please give us the full name?
For the IE 11 favorite, if you use Microsoft account to log into this computer and this account is used on other Windows 8/8.1 computer with Sync settings open, the favorites will be automatically synced here.
For more information about the Sync settings, please refer to this article:

Need to do a clean install of Win 7 on my HP Dv7 1464rw. Purchased it with Vista on it and it was up

Need to do a clean install of Win 7 on my Dv7 1464rw. I purchased this computer with Vista on it and HP sent me the upgrade for Win 7 as part of the purchase. Can I reuse these discs or do I need some other disc to do this? Also, Do I need to wipe the hard drive clean or will the install process do that?

Do you have the license key with the Windows 7 upgrade disk? If so you should be able to use it to format and reinstall.

RAC Instalation Problem (shared accross all the nodes in the cluster)

All experts
I am trying for installing Oracle 10.2.0 RAC on Redhat 4.7
reff : http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/OracleDB10gR2RACInstallationOnLinux
All steps successfully completed on all nodes (rac1,rac2) every thing is okey for each node
on single node rac instalation successfull.
when i try to install on two nodes
on specify Oracle Cluster Registry (OCR) location showing error
the location /nfsmounta/crs.configuration is not shared accross all the nodes in the cluster. Specify a shared raw partation or cluster file system file that is visible by the same name on all nodes of the cluster.
I create shared disks on all nodes as:
1 First we need to set up some NFS shares. Create shared disks on NAS or a third server if you have one available. Otherwise create the following directories on the RAC1 node.
mkdir /nfssharea
mkdir /nfsshareb
2. Add the following lines to the /etc/exports file. (edit /etc/exports)
/nfssharea *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash)
/nfsshareb *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash)
3. Run the following command to export the NFS shares.
chkconfig nfs on
service nfs restart
4. On both RAC1 and RAC2 create some mount points to mount the NFS shares to.
mkdir /nfsmounta
mkdir /nfsmountb
5. Add the following lines to the "/etc/fstab" file. The mount options are suggestions from Kevin Closson.
nas:/nfssharea /nfsmounta nfs rw,bg,hard,nointr,tcp,vers=3,timeo=300,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,actimeo=0 0 0
nas:/nfsshareb /nfsmountb nfs rw,bg,hard,nointr,tcp,vers=3,timeo=300,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,actimeo=0 0 0
6. Mount the NFS shares on both servers.
mount /mount1
mount /mount2
7. Create the shared CRS Configuration and Voting Disk files.
touch /nfsmounta/crs.configuration
touch /nfsmountb/voting.disk
Please guide me what is wrong

I think you did not really mount it on the second server. what is the output of 'ls /nfsmounta'.
step 6 should be 'mount /nfsmounta', not 'mount 1'. I also don't know if simply creating a zero-size file is sufficient for ocr (i have always used raw devices, not nfs for this)

Hi lupchiancristi, Welcome to the HP forum! I will do my best to assist you with this issue. I understand you would like to connect additional monitors. Here is a document on Connecting a Monitor, Projector or TV (Windows 7), that I believe will assist you. Here is the HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide. Please note page 17 # 19 for your memory options. Please let me know the result.

I have a laptop hewlett- PackardHP Pavilion g6 Notebook PCProduct ID No: 00359-OEM-8992687-00010Factory installed OS: Win 7 I was wondering if is possible to connect two monitors on it and to keep the laptop monitor working in the same time(so three all together ). I can attach one , if i put the second one is not working, i can see third monitor in the setting but no signal on the monitor.
If my video card doesnt support the third monitor can I improvize something ?
One more question though i suppose i shoul open a different topic...I have 8 gb of ram, can i put 2 or 4 more ?
Thank you in advance for your answers !

Need 11gr2 RAC install Guide on Solaris 10 x86 using containers and NFS

I'm looking for an 11gr2 RAC install Guide on Solaris 10 x86 using 2-3 containers. I need to have the NFS server reside in the global zone or on a 3rd container visable to the two rac containers.
Please share me installation guide!
Thank you!
PS - I currently have run into an install issue -
Can't change ownership on /oracle/products/11.2.0/ocr/: not owner at /oracle/app/11.2.0/grid/crs/install/crsconfig_lib.pm line 5014.
I suspect the NFS share params from the NFS server in the global zone are not 100% correct to the two rac zones/containers.

Have you visited Oracle Support Services website (formerly metalink) to determine if your desired configuration is supported?
Last time I looked it was not.
That said Oracle database installation guides are fully documented online.

Flash appears to install on Win 7, IE 8but will not display

32 bit Windows 7
IE 8, 32 bit
FP 10.2.152.32
FP S/W installation windows indicate that FP installed (Download Manager also says so)
FP & Download Manager are both shown in Programs.
History: Few weeks ago system was severely corrupted even though had McAfee Viruscan and Webroot Spysweeper. It was indicated every time an attempt to look at a video was made wherepon the computer would shutdown a few seconds afterwards. Working w/ Dell Support they determined the system was too far corrupted to save (7000+ files corrupted!!). They suggested that it would be preferable to install W 7 to replace then current XP operating system. Had disk formatted and XP operating system re-installed but only sufficient to allow operation of email. When Windows 7 arrived fully installed along w/ new Word/Excel 2010 S/W. Retrieved backuped files successfully. Everything is operating OK except for FP. Every attempt to load (after repeated uninstalls) shows it to be "successful" but still won't allow videos to play.
Based on perusal of thread, opened register to check on "kill-bit", found no indication it was set.
What should I do next?

Hi, what a terrible experience to have to go thru! I hope you don't still have either one of those "Anti-Virus" programs on your system. If not, what Anti-Virus/Spyware program(s) do you have?
Yes it was terrible, but Dell (Solution Station, paid support) made this sickening experience bearable. Right now I have McAfee Total Protection 2011 for what it's worth (ya gotta have something) and I use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (free version) twice a day to scan. The only thing it finds repeatedly is something in the registry defined as : HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command\...
So I can understand this, you now have Win7 on the computer? The backup files are from the XP that had the 7000 corrupted files?? When you reformatted XP, weren't those files lost? I guess what I need to know is how did those files get Installed onto the Win7 OS?
Here's the sequence of events: I back up periodically with a WD My Book Essentials external drive, assuring that the system is as clean as I can get it and otherwise operating normally. I don't do it continuously for fear that I could be backing up corrupted files right up to the point the disk crashes The back up that was used was about six weeks old. The 7000+ corrupted files were cleaned before reformatting but would have been lost regardless when the disk was reformatted. After it was reformatted and before installation of W7, the Dell reinstallation disk for XP was used. No backup files were loaded on this temporary XP system. When the W7 system was installed these backup files from the external drive were cleaned with Malwarebyes which found about 20 corrupted files. Since then only two have regularly appeared , they are in the registry defined as: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command\def...
Also why wasn't the malware cleaned before reformatting?
As indicated above, it was cleaned but never used again since it was all lost with the reformatting. The reinstalled software came from a six week old backup which has worked well and shows none of the malware, except for the few Malwarebytes intially found.
One other thing, I revisited the "kill-bit" procedure. While I didn't find what you indicated, I did find these two entries with HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ :
      Name                        Type                    Data
"icon w/ab in it"             REG SZ            (value not set)
"icon w/ab in it"             REG SZ            application/x-shockwave-flash
Also, I was looking at your procedure in post #26, in response to jfirko where a vs 9 of FP is installed/uninstalled followed by the current version of FP. For my situation is this a worthwile approach?
By the way, thanks for your interest in solving these problems. So many programs now use the flash player but there are so few sources to turn to when problems occur.

I am unable to get iTunes to install in Win 7 64.

So, I have a fresh install of Win 7 - 64 Pro on my PC. No problems of any sort with any other program. Recieved an iPad 2 as a gift yesterday. Went to install iTunes 11. Am receiving a message that I am unable to install because of a Windows Installer error and to contact 'my support person'. I'm not in safe mode, and I've had no issues installing anything else on this pc, and am receiving no other error messages, so I'm looking for some help in figuring this out.
Thanks!

While continuing my hunt for info, I found this discussion, and it resolved my problem:
