Annoying crashes of PSE10 in Windows 8 Pro x64

Hi,
i recently bought a new PC with Win8Pro x64 and after installing LR4 and PSE10 i really can't use PSE without continously crashing.
Win8 is completely fresh installed so please don't advise me to reinstall it ;-)
Is there a incompatiblity with Win8?
Are there any bugfixes or Updates? I installed it from the DVD and when i search for updates i only get a new RAW Converter plugin which of course doesn't solve my problem.
An example of a crash (which i can reproduce):
- Edit a picture "with PSE" in LR -> Picture opens in PSE
- Change the size of the picture
- Create a new PSD file (10x15cm)
- Copy the picture which came from LR
- Paste it in the new 10x15 file
- Move it to the correct position
- Click in the picture to confirm the position -> Windows program crashed message
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Daniel

Adobe officially does not support PSE10 on Win 8. Though it supports PSE11.

  • Photoshop CS4 (11.0.2) crashes when file opens (Windows 7 x64 Pro)

    Did a recent install of Windows 7 x64 Pro and installed Adobe Web Suite and updated all adobe programs. When I use photoshop to open a file, the file opens then photoshop hangs and windows says it has stopped responding then closes. This is a fresh install of windows...
    I used drivermax to backup drivers from a previous install and install those drivers on the new install. After that I installed the newest graphics drivers via nvidia's website.
    I installed all updates for the suite then I cleared my preferences, none of this worked.
    Please let me know where I can find the crash log and any other logs so I can post that info here.

    I would do exactly as Curt suggests, and check out Event Viewer. This ARTICLE goes into more detail about what to look for. Be sure to follow every link, in every warning, or error message. Do not get frustrated with warning and error messages, that are 100% code - just look for one written in words that you can understand, and especially with any, that have links.
    Good luck,

  • AMD HD7450 driver crash in Lenovo M82 / Windows 7 x64

    Dear Lenovo Community,
      I tried today to install an AMD HD7450 (not the one sold by Lenovo but does it make a difference ?) on the PCIe port of a Lenovo M82. The aim for me is to use 3 screens on the Lenovo.
    I have two distinct problems I do not understand.
    -> First of all : Lenovo Bios concerning "multiple screen" option.
    What does exactly means this option ?  This does nos seems to be explained in the Lenovo "hardware" PDF.
    I found here : http://download.lenovo.com/express/HT062228.html
    That "multiple screen support" with additionnal PCI-e card requires to use the "IGD" mode and Enable Multi-Monitor Support. However, when I do so, the two screens (two LCDs with 1080p support, one VGA, one DVI) do not go on : only one of these is on even when Windows Desktop is reached, whatever the IGD, Auto, PEG and so one options I do activate. I think it's not normal, even if the driver is not installed. The two video cards (internal and PCI-e) should run in a VGA compatibility mode, isn't it ? So I have a question : does the Lenovo BIOS automatically disable the internal video card when an extra PCI-e card is detected ? Or does this behavior depends on "Select ACtive Video" / "Multi-Monitor Support" options of the BIOS ? Could someone clarify what is the M82 behaviour about this, or give some documentation ?
    -> Next : AMD HD 7540 compatibility, even as unique video display
    To install the AMD HD7540 video card on the Windows 7 x 64 system (installed by default with the Lenovo computer), I used the driver provided by Lenovo here :
    http://support.lenovo.com/fr_FR/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS029174
    Once the driver is installed, the PC crashes. Then, impossible to restart it (I did not try the recovery mode) : once the "Lenovo" logo is shown, the screen displays a blinking something at the top of a blank screen, and the startup does not seems continue. To recover the boot sequence of Windows, I had to remove the card from the PCI-e port.
    What should I do to install this video card ?
    And over all : How can I have 3 display screens with the integrated lenovo video card + the AMD HD 7540 card ?
    Best Regards,
        Mike

    I using the "multi-monitor support" as described in the doc above to use both the internal graphics and a HD 6670 on a M91p with Win 7 64-bit.
    I'm using the latest Intel driver for the internal graphics, and Catalyst 13.4 from the AMD website for the graphics card.    I suggest download the software, de-install all the current graphics drivers and software (it will default to a basic Win 7 driver), reboot and install the new drivers and software. 
    To enable DisplayPort to DVI on the internal graphics and the DP on the 6670, I am using AMD approved DP to DVI adapters. The list is here: http://support.amd.com/us/eyefinity/Pages/eyefinity-dongles.aspx      I'm using a passive single link adapter on the internal, and an active single link on the 6670 (since it's the 3rd active port, and it supplies the clock to the adapter, the adapter can clock 2 ports on it's own.)    The active adapters are not much more, best to get them if you're not sure, also more flexibility down the road.  
    Additionally, ensure you have Win 7 SP1 installed, and latest updates ;  that you have manually updated to the latest BIOS. 

  • Windows pro x64 with soundblster live World of Warcr

    when i start up my world of warcraft, all of my sound gets greatly distorded. when i go into my sound control panel in windows and change the speeker seting to ither head phones or anything that is not curently selected as the default, the sound gose back to normal. when i am in world of warcraft, and i quit the game, the sound will then go back to normal as well. plz help, it is extreamly annoying to go into the setting over and over again to fix the sound when every i play world of warcraft.

    I do know one thing about that game that you didnt list about it's hardware requirements. The game needs to have a certain version of DirectX. Do you have the right version of directX installed (alot of games have it included on the game cd and will ask you to install it at the same time you are installing the game)? Does your sound card support the version of directX that is needed by the game? The latest version of DirectX is 9.0c and I am pretty sure that World of Warcraft is a New game so it is pretty likely that World of Warcraft needs at least ver 8 or 9 of directX. Click Start, then Run, then type "dxdiag" without the qoutes and press enter. If it asks you to scan for the hardware compatibility say Yes or No(if you say yes it will scan your pc and will take a while to finish) on the screen that comes up, in the middle near the bottom it will say what version of direct X you have.

  • Reader 11.0.2 extremely slow on Win 8 Pro x64

    I have a Core i7 quad-core with 8Gb of ram and a hybrid ssd/hdd 750Gb drive. My computer is quite speedy with everthing _except_ adobe reader. 50% of the time when I try to open a .pdf of various sizes (from 300Kb to 300Mb) the file just never opens at all, and I have to open task manager and kill the adobe process and try it all over. When it does open, a 500Kb file will take about 90 seconds to open, if you want to scroll down? that's another 90 seconds. Want to close Adobe Reader, you guessed it, another 90 seconds go by, if it doesn't completely freeze.
    I've reinstalled twice. I even used Revo Uninstalller to really remove Adobe Reader and then re-install. Same slower than molasses in January going uphill on a cold day result.
    I do not have 3rd party Anti-Virus as Windows 8 has it's Defender renamed Security Essentials re-renamed Defender.
    PC Specs:
    HP ProBook 4530s
    Intel Core i7 2630QM Sandy Bridge 2.00 GHz Quad core, with Hyperthreading (8 Logical Threads)

    Please Advise.

    I came looking for an answer to the same problem.
    Ever since the recent upgrade to Acrobat Reader 11.0.2 the program has been unsually slow off and on.
    Mine isn't as bad as PhlMike17's, but I too am running a quad core with 8gigs windows pro x64 up to date, I use mostly for Illustrator and Photoshop/web design.
    This morning I checked back to a 275kb 1page pdf image copy of an estimate from a partner company, and it loaded then hung for 5-10 seconds as has been the norm since upgrading.
    Sometimes it doesn't hang at all, file size doesn't seem to be an issue.
    I always do the upgrades.
    I am running the Japanese version.
    cheers.

  • Windows 7 x64 Pro, desktop GUI fails to display correctly, or crashes, when High RAM load, and even after. HW changed, same issue. Please Help.

    Hi Guys,
    I have have this horror issue with my PC. I have even changed the hardware configuration and the problem still persists. My PC fails to display the desktop correctly after using highly RAM intensive applications, especially Chrome, but even after getting
    the chance to close it, or waiting for it to crash by itself, the PC is still not able to display correctly the GUI, even on other browser/applications as shown in the screenshots. 
    1st Hardware Config:
    Intel Core2Quad Q9450
    4x2GB DDR2
    MSI P43 motherboard
    Ati Radeon x550 video card
    Software used, that seemed important for me to mention:
    NOD32 v4.2
    Comodo Firewall 5.12
    Chrome
    Screenshot Captor
    SpeedFan
    Other mentions:
    Aero is disabled, because I've considered that it's one of the causes.
    So, I've considered that it's a RAM issue or a videocard issue, and I've upgraded to:
    Intel Core i7 3770k
    4x8GB DDR3
    Asus P8Z77V-LX motherboard
    Intel GPU integrated in the 3770k CPU
    The problem just happened 2 times on this rig also, and the RAM was not even coming close to  it's maximum capacity of 31.7GB. It was at ~20GB's.
    Also, this is another videocard(Intel's integrated GPU), so we can exclude the videocard from the suspects.
    My suspects:
    1) some desktop manager bugs, or other similar issue
    2)  video memory allocation - I'm still suspecting that it can be caused by the amount of RAM dedicated to the videocard, currently, I think  that it is at 256MB.
    3) some poorly designed components of Chrome/Screenshot Captor - still very questionable since there are enough resources on this system, so there should be no fight over resources. And when the system is barely used there are no issues.
    4) Adobe Shockwave Flash - maybe this one????
    I have attached a set of 20 screenshots here, these were taken on the 1st configuration of my PC, using Q9450:
    http://imgur.com/a/Mc8hI#4
    Notice how it distorts the image by duplicating it and showing it in a smaller space, or how does it displays those black rectangles. In those moments, the PC is fully functional(the apps are running the background), without being slowish or something, but
    you can hardly control it like that. For example, I've tried to remove the mouse from the USB, and then I've insterted it back, the image was not displayed correctly, but the mouse was recognised instantly and the pointer was controlable.
    Same thing still happens on the new configuration. Please advise me.
    LE: OS is Windows 7 x64 SP1 Professional and it's Geniune. There is no cracked software on this PC. No games. I've tried to maintain it as clean as possible.

    Hi,
    First, please be ensured that you have installed the latest drivers and all the updates.
    Then check whether this issue will not in
    Safe Mode. If it didn’t occurred, I suggest you narrow down the cause in
    Clean Boot mode.
    In addition, try to create a new profile to see how it works.
    Hope this helps.

  • W520 hangs on Windows 7 Pro x64 installation, cannot boot live CD

    Hi Everyone!
    I decided to reach out to the community for some intelligence that I have not been able to obtain elsewhere.  Here's my story in details in case someone can find a break on any of them ...
    I purchased my W520 in November, 2011 with 1 year warranty and used it without issues until last week.  One morning when I started the laptop, it loaded Windows 7 Pro x64, I logged in.  After loading the desktop, I locked the screen/user and stepped out for a minute.  When I came back, the screen was frozen and after a few minutes of waiting I manually powered off the laptop.  
    Upon restart, Windows 7 would hang on the logo screen and restart in a few minutes.  I was able to restart under Safe Mode, however, which enabled me to create the rescue DVD's.  
    I decided to re-install the OS, but the installation would hang on the Windows logo screen again.  This was also attempted with all accessories (usb kbd, usb wireless mouse, and display I also tried w/o the battery) disconnected. Then I thought, that it could be a bad hdd - I tried installing XP Pro but got the BSOD with a bad hdd error code.  At that point, I attached the hdd to a working PC and ran checkdisk which found no errors. The problem persisted even with unpartitioned disk and a spare hdd that I had on hand.  What intrigued me was that no linux live CD could load (it would freeze on the loading screen).
    After this, I flashed the BIOS to the newest version without any issues during the flash process.  The Windows 7 Pro x64 installation would hang again at the usual logo screen.  I also tried with different DVD source... Memtest did not show any problems either.
    Then I called an IT support guy who was not experienced with the issue and took the laptop for bench testing, and after four days of back and forth the IT company was inconclusive that the issues is most likely caused by a bad BIOS. 
    This happened around March 21, 2013 after Windows 7 installed updates (not sure if this could be related).  The weird part is that the W520 worked fine for a year and four months and when it crashed I was able to use Safe Mode, access and flash BIOS, but was unable to run new installation or live CD's. 
    Is there anything that I am missing?  Has anyone had the same experience?  What is the conclusion according to you - it is really bad BIOS chip or just a UEFI-related setting?
    Thanks for reading and trying to help!

    Sir:
    I'm not entirely sure what you mean when you write "BIOS v1.40 settings that will make it possible to install Windows 7  Pro 64", but, you can download the 1.40 BIOS (which appears to be the most recent release) from this link: Device Driver File Matrix - W520 , and if you have any concerns about the BIOS settings not being appropriate, just enter the BIOS setup manager (tap the F1 key repeatedly when the laptop is booting) and select 'revert to defaults' or similar.

  • Windows XP Pro x64 problem with hardware aud

    I just upgraded my computer and with this upgrade I installed Windows XP Pro x64. I am having the following symptoms and I am wondering if they aren't part of a larger problem.
    When I run DXDiag (either the 32 or 64bit version) I get the following error message during the tests on the Sound tab: "Your sound card does not support hardware buffering. Sounds will only play back from software buffers.". Is this normal for Windows XP Pro x64. I've used this OS before (with my older system) and never saw that message and used 2 different X-Fi cards during that time!
    I also have this problem...While running Thief Deadly Shadows, when I enable "Audio Hardware Mixing" I loose all sound. And I am unable to enable "EAX Advanced HD" and "EAX Multiple Environments".
    It seems like I can't enable hardware audio. But I also have Lord of The Rings Online installed and it appears to be using it's hardware audio ok, but when I change from hardware to software it crashes if I don't disable EAX first, so it's not perfect. Is this card faulty or is this typical of WXPx64 or what?
    Thanks...
    My system specs are: Intel E6850, Asus P5K Deluxe (0404 BIOS), Corsair Twin2X4096-6400DHX, EVGA e-Geforce 8800 GTX, Creative X-Fi Elite Pro, Intel PRO/000 PT Server Adapter, Enermax Galaxy 000W Gamers Edition. I think that's all that's relevant.Message Edited by Zapper_Weisman on 07-27-20070:2 AM

    I disabled the Memory Remap Feature in the BIOS and my DXDiag and Thief problems went away. I had a hunch it was related to this. But now my question is, am I just out of luck, in terms of having to sacrifice some of my RAM (3.25GBs instead of 4GBs) to get my sound card working properly? It seems to me that this is a driver issue, as I've read others say that Creative never really supported x64 fully.
    Does anyone have anything to offer on this? Thanks...Message Edited by Zapper_Weisman on 07-27-20070:22 AM

  • Windows 7 Pro x64 now BSOD just as it is starting and Startup Repair has failed

    As the title says, a few days ago my Windows 7 Pro x64 started to BSOD just as Windows is starting but the error screen disappears immediately.
    Startup Repair fails and has Problem Signature 04: 21199350
    I have used the Windows 7 Pro installation DVD and opened its Command Prompt option and then run the chkdsk and sfc programs but no errors were reported. Also, I ran bootrec with /fixmbr then with /fixboot and finally with /rebuildbcd but it made no difference.
    After a failure, the next time I turn on the PC I am offered to repair Windows or to start windows normally. Using the repair from here didn't work as also happened when I chose the repair option from the Windows 7 Pro installation DVD.
    Holding down the f8 key when Windows is starting doesn't make any difference.
    BTW, the crash happens as the 4 small parts of windows are approaching each other on the Windows start screen.
    I can access my hard disk by attaching it to my laptop. If the error 21199350 reported by Startup Repair failure is not the BSOD error, will this be recorded in a file each time it happens? If so, which file?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated as I dread having to reinstall Windows 7 Pro from scratch again and all the many programs I spent ages installing.
    Thanks
    Paul

    Sorry for the delay in replying.
    This evening I managed to modify the PC registry from the Startup Repair command window so it wouldn't reboot on BSOD.
    Used regedit.exe to modify the following in the PC's registry (I followed the 17 July 2011 Terra-byte "Modify the Windows Registry from Startup Repair" article):
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\CrashControl] and set AutoReboot to 0x00000000.
    and also for ControlSet002.
    The BSOD error is: 0x0000007B which seems to be a device driver problem.
    Would my problem be caused by my installing 2x 2GB DIMMs that I bought on eBay into my Abit AB9 Pro motherboard's two free slots (the other two slots each have 1GB DIMMs) but on power on nothing happened?
    Removing the two new DIMMs the PC powered on but then resulted in BSOD.
    Thanks
    Paul
    Error 0x000000tB is a very often reported error.  It means INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE.  Either something in your BIOS changed the type of storage device (AHCI -> IDE) or your HDD is experiencing a possible failure.

  • Adobe Reader will not set as default application for .pdf in windows 8.1 pro x64

    When I install adobe reader the icon/app changes from windows reader to Pick an app, I choose change and select adobe reader, the icons on my desktop flicker but nothing actually changes.Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set Default Programs\Set Program Associations, Select adobe reader, Choose defaults for this program, PDF is unticked so I tick it and choose save, go back in and it is unticked again??? Right click on a pdf file, choose open with, choose default program, use this app for all .pdf files is ticked, select adobe...Still nothing changes, stays on pick an app. I uninstall adobe reader then the pdf icon changes to and default opens with windows reader again. Reinstall adobe reader and back to the same thing. ???? I am a power user, build configure computers and subsequent software, started with DOS 6.0, learned unix/linux/networking concepts/networking security/server versions of windows/active directory. The only solution I could think of was to hack the registry which I looked for but could not find. I am running 8.1 pro x64, I just discovered that windows reader (which I cant uninstall) has the same problem when adobe reader is installed. Windows will not allow either one to be set as default while they co-exist.

    After an extended session with chat only to be told that since Adobe Reader was free they could not help me :-(... I figured it out myself.
    I opened a administrator: command prompt window and typed "regedit"  Through extensive searching and stumbled on this key located at... HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-2274202122-2588692262-2244265822-1001_Classes\.pdf\OpenWithProgids  The S-1-5-21...1001... is my current logged on user, your value may differ slightly. Typically the builtin disabled administrator account is 1000 and when you install windows and create a user account "John Doe" it will have administrator priveleges and be auto numbered 1001, every user account created therafter will increase by 1 ie...1002, 1003, 1004 etc. even if you remove (delete) an account and re-create it you wont get the same number, the system will use the next number in sequence. The old one will have been trashed never to be used again. Again here is the key...
    HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-2274202122-2588692262-2244265822-1001_Classes\.pdf\OpenWithProgids I deleted this key under (default) on the right side...
    Name                                                                       Type                                           Data
    (Default)                                                                   REG_SZ                                    (value not set)
    AppX86746z2101ayy2ygv3g96e4eqdf8r99j            REG_NONE                              (zero-length binary value)  ---- This is the key to delete!!!
    Personally I selected computer on the left side and the went to file/export then chose a file name [01 29 2014 regbackup.reg] and location. Then I selected "OpenWithProgids" and did the same thing,[pdf.reg] this saves a backup of the entire regestry and the key you are about to delete as a safety net. When you are done all you have to do is go to a pdf file, right click and choose open with...Adobe Reader - the box always use this app should already be checked.
    I did this and it works yet because improper regestry modification can crash your system I am compelled to warn... Use at your own risk. If you are uncomfortable modifying your registry I would suggest consulting with someone qualified and has resources to do offline registry modifications/restorations which makes it VERY important to do the computer export registry backup.

  • I've just bought and installed PS elements 13 on Windows 7 x64 and it crashes as soon as it's started (1st run)

    After what I thought was a legit copy of PS Elements 8 expired tonight after a month, I bought PS Elements 13 and installed it on a Windows 7 Pro x64 machine.
    It installed properly, and on first load, it opened the welcome screen, then both Organise and Edit options cause an immediate crash, and everytime since.
    Multiple restarts with no difference.
    Elements 8 removed, no difference.
    Elements 13 removed and reinstalled with no difference.
    How can I find out what's wrong and get this fixed ASAP?
    That, or somehow purchase a PS Elements 8 licence??

    You may have a configuration problem in your network (IP conflict). Are you using DHCP?
    There is also the possibility of some problem with the HP App.
    You should try posting this problem on the HP printer forums. Try here: ePrint, Print Apps, Mobile Printing, and ePrintCenter

    I have the Optical drive setup as O: and a Daemon tools virtual drive as drive E:
    While running DISKPART and using LIST VOLUME I see this:
    currently the system seems to have lost all update history
    Any information or help on this is appreciated. I don't want to reformat and reinstall, I don't really want to 'repair' and wipe my current software installation so I'm hoping there is a way.
    Anyway I can get the 'pending state' removed.?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi, I've rebooted into Repair mode (Console), (because repair said windows is installed on E:) run dism.exe /image:E:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions
    This gave a message about small scratch space but did say something out a fix. Upon reboot into safemode with console I received the same message 
    "C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow
    Beginning system scan.  This process will take some time.
    There is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete.  Restart Windows and run sfc again."
    I then rebooted and tried SCF again, no luck... Same message, same updates still sitting there.
    Partition info: (as mentioned earlier C is in RAID 0 with 2 SSD disks)

    I will update thread with their reply as nothing, even Driver Genius Professional 11 has located the actual working driver. Once an update is verified, I will post back to this thread since I couldn't find the right answer online.
    THIS BTW I TESTED IS INCORRECT [You may verify if you don't believe such] :
    http://www.experts-exchange.com/Software/System_Utilities/Q_26292317.html <- That didn't work [Found driver online via Google] and link isn't working anymore in that post.
    This is related to this thread here:

  • Oracle XE 11g x64 does not run. No *DBF files inside of the XE folder. Windows 7 Pro x64.

    Hello everyone!
    I hope you are doing well all. In my case I have some troubles by installing Oracle XE 11g on my PC. My OS is Windows 7 Pro x64.
    1. I activated the Administrator mode on my PC (net user Administrator /active:yes)
    2. Started the setup as Administrator. The setup process was finished successfully with no errors showed.
    3. Started the Database, OracleServiceXE, OracleXETNListener and other services.
    4. Tried to connect using sqlplus-> connect system ->password, what in result gave me ORA-01034 Oracle not available and ORA-27101 Shared memory realm does not exist errors.
    5. Then I recognized that my C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\oradata\XE folder is empty when it should be usually full with 6 DBF file.
    6. I opened the cloneDBCreation.log and it contains these data:

    I spent around 2 days to come to this reason and now I do not know what to do next.
    My actions to resolve this problem:
    1. Checked if my user has administrative rights and belongs to ora_dba. It does!
    2. Turned Microsoft UAC off.
    3. Set the system and local variables of ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, PATH, TNS-ADMIN to the appropriate values in Enivornment Variables:
         - ORACLE_BASE -> C:\oraclexe
         - ORACLE_HOME -> %ORACLE_BASE%\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server
         - ORACLE_SID -> XE
         - Added to PATH -> C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\bin;
         - TNS_ADMIN -> %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin
    4. Removed Oracle XE 11g and reinstalled to another drive. No sense!
    Some more errors:
    1. C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\config\log\XE.bat.log
    Instance created.
    DIM-00019: create service error
    O/S-Error: (OS 1387) Ein Mitglied konnte in der lokalen Gruppe nicht hinzugefugt oder entfernt werden, da das Mitglied nicht vorhanden ist.
    It means -> O/S-Error: (OS 1387) Unable to add or remove a member from the local group because this member does not exist.
    I understand that I need to logon as batch job. I added me to this policy in User Rights Assignments, but still I get these "DIM-00019: create service error" and "O/S-Error: (OS 1387)". And I guess just therefore my database is not starting well.
    2. 127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4950 is not starting in browser. It is probably because the database is not running appropriately. For this issue have already seen one topic in Google that the HTTP Properties inside the Listener Status must be set to 8080 to make this link work. But in my case I do not see this line in my Listener Status:

    I have tried to install both of them lots of times but in each case I receive the same in my XE.bat file:
    Instance created.
    DIM-00019: create service error
    O/S-Error: (OS 1387) Unable to add or remove a member from the local group because this member does not exist.
    Have checked OS 1387 error at Microsoft Support and as possible cause of the problem they give as follows:
    This issue can occur if the environment has a disjointed namespace (i.e. the domain has different NetBIOS and DNS names). For example, assume that the domain has a NetBIOS name of "domain.com" and a DNS name of "domain-old.com." When users are added in the Windows UI, they are displayed in the format of domain\ComputerName. However, you notice in the error log that there was an attempt to add a computer account in the format of domain-old\ComputerName. (System Center 2012 R2 Data Protection Manager install fails and generates ID: 4323: "A member could not be added")
    Tried to find out my DNS name, but it is impossible because I don't have any domain installed and my machine is not connected to it. Some other blog (Install Oracle 11gR2 on Windows) advices to work with adding my computer account to some non-real windows domain (just for the purpose of resolving the network) as well and reinstall the database then. If I undestand it right I need minimum 2 machines for this. But I own just one, where the server is based and thought that is enough to run the database... no idea ..

  • Can't install Windows 7 Pro x64 - device driver missing - can't eject DVD

    Hello,
    I am trying to install Windows 7 Pro x64 - I create the partition in boot camp and start windows install process. **During the Windows install process**, it says "A required CD/DVD device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now. Note: if the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD drive, you can safely remove it for this step".
    Apparently the drivers are on the OSX install DVD. But, there is no way to eject the windows DVD! Why on earth is there no manual eject on Macs? Is there another way to eject? I tried to put a paperclick in the slot next to where a CD is inserted but it didn't do anything. Is there another way to get Windows to see the correct device drivers?
    I am all for clean slick designs, but when it does not have all required functionality, it is kind of useless.
    I am talking to Mac Support and they can't help.
    Looks like I will have to return this Mac, I also need to boot into full Windows (without Parallels or VMWare) to do my work.

    You don't mention what Mac you have, so I'd have to say there is almost no way to help.
    IF the 7 Pro x64 came download ISO thru EDU, you have to burn it, and if you use Disk Utility, at 2X reduced burn speed... otherwise it won't work.
    A VM isn't fussy and can use ISOs.
    If you want both native and VM, to have Windows installed on its own hard drive and use it under OS X, then you have to install it and use Boot Camp Assistant.
    I'd say it is all about your DVD media.
