Better Performance on Win7 64-bit with Crysis, GTA IV?

Hi. Has anyone tried the Boot Camp 3.2 on Windows 7 64-bit? How is the performance with Crysis/Warhead, GTA IV and similar taxing games? Any fps improvements? Thank you in advance. Gbu.

Running 9.0.1 Firefox. I get a msg from AVG that Firefox is using too much memory and then the computer (not just Firefox) shuts off. Running Win7 (64-bit) with 4 GB Mem and Intel i-5. Only 4-5 "normal" windows are open at the time this happens.

Right now Task manager Performance tab on Memory says: Total 3958; Cached mem 1588; Avail 2239; Free 722; Physical Mem 43% and this window is the only thing open. Kernel mem (MB) says Paged 179 and Nonpaged 80.
I can get you more info if you tell me what you need (and where to find it - I am 60 y.o. woman and this is not my forte :=)
Thanks,

R/w Quicktime on Win7-64 bit with 64-bit Premiere and AE?

Does CS5 running in 64 bit (not using 32 bit CS4 version) on Win7-64 have the ability to read and write Quicktime files?
Is this for both CS5 64 bit Premiere and AE?
Does it work well?
Thanks!

ProRes decoding--that is, playback--is supported and available on Windows (all platforms). However, encoding to ProRes is not possible; this is not an Adobe limitation, but rather, an Apple limitation, as there is no ProRes encoder included or available for Windows. Any ProRes file that I've tried--SD or HD--has been usable in Premiere on Windows. I haven't tried the 4444 variety, but if the decoder is available, it'll playback. ProRes 422 HQ should be no problem, though.
Here's a screenshot of a ProRes 422 HQ clip successfully loaded into the Windows version of Premiere Pro CS5:

Win7 64-bit PDF Preview works- except with PDF Forms?

I have Win7 64-bit with Adobe Acrobat X Standard installed. I receive PDFs as attachments in Outlook 2010, and for the most part, the PDF preview works fine. Downloaded PDFs that I have in a folder with the Preview Pane work fine as well. However with PDF forms, which have cells that you can manually fill in, i.e. name, hire date, etc. I receive an error "Please wait, If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document." This happens in both Outlook 2010, and the Windows Explorer preview pane panel. The attached website does not fix my issue as the registry key is correct. Any ideas? Thanks! http://www.pretentiousname.com/adobe_pdf_x64_fix/#downl

Hello NI_LV_82_User,
The DIAdem PDF output is not compatible with Windows 7 (DIAdem 11.1 was released in July 2009, Windows 7 was made available in October 2009). The DIAdem R&D department is currently working on a fix to add this functionality under Windows 7. We are working to provide a solution as soon as possible and will make the release of the Service Pack known here on the forum as soon as it is available.

Safari v5.0.2 for Win7 (64-bit) crashes with Kraken benchmark

my Safari v5.0.2 for Win7 (64-bit) keeps crashing whenever I try the Kraken JavaScript Benchmark http://krakenbenchmark.mozilla.com

Thank you for your response. Yes, you are right to suggest upgrade to 10.4 of course, but I've read stories of how it is slower, especially since I only have 256 MB on my iBook G4.
Sorry to say, but good news all the same for others in my situation, that the new browser Camino 1.6.4 is the best solution to this problem.
I installed Camino on my 10.3.9 and it works great, faster than Safari, better features, about the same feel and functionality, and completely stable with no crashes regardless of which web site I visit, keeping Javascript enabled. (I also tried FIrefox and it crashed on the same sites as Safari.)
So, all you users who still insist on their 10.3.9 OS, switch to Camino and experience crash-free browsing!

What is causing software "hangup" and inability to print with Firefox 20.0 on Win7-64 Bit for PC?

Just updated Firefox with Ver.20.0 on a PC running Win7-64 Bit. Since doing this, Firefox seems on occasion to be slow/unresponsive requiring multiple clicks on a button to perform function. More of an issue is the fact that frequently get a message that document will not print since there is no access to printer. After exiting Firefox and then trying to restart program, get a message that Firefox is still running and either shutdown or reboot computer (which does seem to work). Have the same issue with a second PC running WinXP. Printer works fine with other programs, ISPs, etc.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

'Source play' and 'audio-video sync' problems with PE8 on fast WIN7 64 bit computer

I am transferring Hi8 videos, about 2 hours long, to my WIN7 64 bit computer with PE8. [Dell Mobile Precision M4400 Computer Workstation (Intel Core 2 Duo T9900 500GB/4GB); NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M, 512MB] I seem to have several problems:
First, after importing the file (.avi), I get a message about ‘dropped frames.’
Secondly, when I try to play the video in the source monitor, the audio plays but the video doesn’t; it only shows the first frame [this is after waiting until the video is ?recognized? ] I can use the shift-arrow key and see that the video is there.
Thirdly, I can play the .avi file in other players, e.g., avidemux or PE pro CS5 on another computer. There, I see that the audio and video are not in sync; the audio can be up to 300 ms ahead of the video (as determined using avidemux).
Questions:
1. Why doesn’t the source monitor play the video? Is this a problem with PE8 (latest update as of 3 March 2011) on aWIN7 64 bit computer (intel duo core. 3 GHz).
2. Is the audio-video sync problem the result of the ‘dropped frames?’ How can PE8 correct this? Avoid this? Or, is it coincidence?

"I think you're telling me you're using a backwards compatible Digital8 camcorder to capture your video as DV-AVIs. Is that right?" YES
"Are you using Premiere Elements to do this capturing?" YES, AS ABOVE PE8
"Go to the File menu and select Properties. It should show a standard DV codec being used for your video and audio."
WMP v12 is dumb. Under properties, media, it says 'video.' However, avidemux gave me the information state above: video -- Codec 4CC: dvsd, frame rate: 29.971 fps; audio -- codec: PCM, channels: Stereo, frequency: 48 kHz.
So, back to the Questions:
1. Why doesn’t the source monitor play the video? Is this a problem with PE8 (latest update as of 3 March 2011) on aWIN7 64 bit computer (intel duo core. 3 GHz).
2. Is the audio-video sync problem the result of the ‘dropped frames?’ How can PE8 correct this? Avoid this? Or, is it coincidence?

Memory Leak Issue With Win7 64 bit and Youtube.

I have a Win7 64 bit using IE9 with version 11.4.402.265 installed. 4 MB installed.
Whenever I go to Youtube or Liveleak, and watch videos, over time it uses up to 4gigs of my memory! Even if I close the window, it does not free up the memory until I Ctrl/Alt/Delete and shut down the window(s).
I normally only keep open 1-2 windows. Google toolbar is about the only thing installed. I can open 5 and more tabs, but as long as the site does not use flash, I don't have issues and each window usually uses under 200k memory watching them in task manager.
When I go to open and watch a youtube video, it slowly climbs to 200k and within an hour, I can be at 2 gigs or more memory and up to 4 gigs within 2 hours (or sometimes much sooner). Closing the window does not release the memory until I end task on it and then after a minute or so, the memory seems to clear and everything is back to normal.
I searched the forums and seems lots of users, report memory leaks, some using yahoo toolbar installed, which is not my case. I do use yahoo as my e-mail address, no idea if that is related or not. I had the same issue when I had the prior Flash version installed, this has been going on for months. Right now having only this window open, using 129, 192 memory. If I open one more window (using the 64 or 32 bit browser) and start youtube, the memory in that window keeps climbing about 50-100kb a second, so it adds up quickly. I have kaspersky running in the background and that is about it other then my nvida driver setup.
Really frustrating that so many people here and across the internet have reported this. I did have IE8 a few weeks ago and still had the same issue, upgraded to IE9 to see if that helped.
Interesting side note, if I pause a video, it slows way down on the memory leak, but still rises at a slower pace. I don't know if this is an IE thing or Flash. I have had this setup since 2009 and don't recall having issues with IE7. I use Youtube so much as a teaching instrument as a music teacher, so constantly have lessons going on it.
Thanks and hope someone has come up with something. I also build computers and have done some programming, so I could modify a file if needed with clear instructions.

This could be similar to bug https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3334814

Itunes does not recognise ipad 2 with win7 64 bit but the computer recognises the ipad 2 as a camera. Works OK with win7 32 bit.

I have tried to sync both ipod and ipad2 (new) with itunes running on win 7 64 bit. I have all latest versions installed on all machines.
The ipod and ipad are just not recognised in itunes.
I have an old win7 32 bit system on the same machine and everything works perfectly.
Any ideas welcome.

http://randomwindowstips.wordpress.com/2009/12/08/windows-7-itunes-9-software-is -not-installed/.
This was the answer to all my problems, once i updated the drivers all good! My iPad kept insisting I didnt have the 64bit itunes (which i did) and when I checked the files I was supposed to have as per the link instructions, I had none of them. Disappointed I had to turn to some random files off a blog rather than having apple actually provide useful help. As long as they are making money though :Z

Get a better performance with audio interface?

Hi all.
I got a silly question. I run Logic 7 on a Powerbook G4 12" with 1.33 Ghz and (only) 768 Mb RAM and a (hard to built in) 160 Gb Harddrive.
After having often the "Disk is too slow..." message I was thinking about buying a external audio interface (presonus firebox).
My simple question is: does an external audio interface give Logic (or CoreAudio) more free DSP-Power? So that maybe I got a better performance? Or do I need to get something like a TC Powercore Firewire?
An answer would be great ... otherwise I have to sell my nice and small 12incher and buy an Intelbook ...
Thanks. Frank.
Powerbook G4 12" 1.33 Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

A new audio interface won't help.
You should start by getting an external 7200 RPM Firewire drive to put your audio on. That right there will help, especially with higher track counts.
Secondly, get more RAM. 768 of RAM is borderline for Logic. I always recommend at least 1 gig. Go ahead and max out that Powerbook to 2 gig of RAM, if you can.
All that to say, an Intel mac would be a huge improvement over the Powerbook. And if you do go that route, still get an external FW drive for audio, and as much RAM as you can afford.

Is DAMO has issues with win7 64 bit

Hello,
we are impelmenting DAMO for our users, it works fine with Win XP/7 32 bit, but got some issue with win7 64 bit, its not creating MAPI profile, at the end of installation it shows
error, "Failed to create a new MAPI profile. ", After that it displays "Setup encountered an error
and failed to create a new MAPI profile. You will need to reinstall IBM Lotus Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook."
please pass solution if you have any...
Thanks!

Do you have a virus scanner, can you exclude .nsf files from scanning.
When installing the damo client software do not put in the normal Program files area as I believe windows 7 will not allow permissions to be changed without asking every time, so tis could be causing issues with temp files etc at setup.
When setting up user profile it will ask where to save the user files, change from default profile area to some other created area of the disk you know you have access to, suggest making a path c:\damo\username\
Also install lotus notes normal client and make sure your ID is ok using basic client.
Thanks.

GroupingCollection2 with better performance

I created a GroupingCollection2 with better performance (in
comparision with GroupingCollection) by tweaking the
implementation. You can find a sample/swc here
http://flexpearls.blogspot.com/2008/06/groupingcollection-with-some-better.html
If you have some free time please test it and let me know if
you find any bugs !
Of-course if you like the performance and would like to use
it in your app, feel free :)

Thanks for your input Grant; it's very helpful
Just to summarize my next steps.
- since a MAC Pro can't handle the new 6G SSDs with SATAIII, I'd have to go with the SSD 3G.
I'll proably get the 115 GB or 240GB model – any thoughts which one I should get
- I'll get an additional hard drive; perhaps: 2.0TB Western Digital 'Caviar BLACK' 7200RPM 6Gb/s HDD 64MB Cache – is this a model you'd recommend
Which one of these should be my boot drive? On the other drive I'll have all my big Photoshop and InDesign job files; applications should be on the boot drive; correct?
- I'll get more RAM. I could return all of my 8 1GB pieces and get 6 x 4GB = 24 GB RAM. Or I can keep 4 of my old and get 4 x 4 GB RAM = 20 GB RAM
I never seen posts were 20 GB RAM was tested. I wonder if it makes a huge difference if I get 20 or 24, since in tests the performance difference between 16 and 24 doesn't seem to be very much. Any thoughts?

RIAD-0 with 2x 36gb raptor, no better performance, How come?

Hello people
I have my system in order, running stable and fast.
But now i bought 2x raptor 36gb
I have connected them on my VIA raid controller (not on promise)
I have created a Raid-0 array and set them as boot array
i can choose between different stripe sizes.
I have chosen 64k
now i have installed windows 64 bit with the lates via (beta) raid driver.
everything works fine.
now i install sisoft sandra 2004 prof edititon > and take the test.
But when i look at the test results it is very bad compared with other results sandra gives me of other configurations.
with pcmark 2001 > i have the same HD score> 1500
i do not have the idea my raid is working fast
IS THE VIA BETA 64 RAID DRIVER so slow ??
DID anyone tested the via raid driver 64 ??
anyhow> i think i will install win xp 32 bit again.

i got two raptors in raid 0 array.....but i have it on my promise contorller. boot times are awesome, opening progs are killer fast and video editing has been amazing. as far as games i dont really play any but i do run ALOT graphic intense progs and alot of CAD. i think the raptors help alot out on some things and at other points u wont notice to much of a differene. peace.

I need better performance from my computer. Could someone point me in the right direction?

I do a lot of video editing for work. I am currently using the Creative Cloud, and the programs I use most frequently are Premiere Pro CS6, Photoshop CS6, and Encore. My issue is that when I am rendering video in Premiere Pro, and most importantly, transcoding in Encore for BluRay discs, I am getting severe lag from my computer. It basically uses the majority of my computer's resources and doesn't allow me to do much else. This means, that I can't do other work while stuff is rendering or transcoding. I had this computer built specifically for video editing and need to know which direction to go in for an upgrade to get some better performance, and allow me to do other work.
For the record, I do have MPE: GPU Acceleration turned ON, and I have 12GBs of RAM alloted for Adobe in Premiere Pro's settings, and 4GBs left for "other".
Here is my computer:
- Dell Precision T7600
- Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit
- DUAL Intel Xeon CPU E-2620 - 2.0GHz 6-core Processors
- 16GBs of RAM
- 256GB SSD as my primary drive. This is where the majority of my work is performed.
- Three 2TB secondary drives in a RAID5 configuration. This is solely for backing up data after I have worked on it. I don't really use this to work off of.
- nVidia Quadro 4000 2GB video card
When I am rendering or transcoding, my processor(s) performance fluctuates between 50%-70%, with all 12 cores active and being used. My physical memory is basically ALL used up while this is happening.
Here is where I am at on the issue. I put in a request for more RAM (32GBs), this way I can allot around 25GBs of RAM to the Adobe suite, leaving more than enough to do other things. I was told that this was not the right direction to go in. I was told that since my CPUs are working around 50-70%, it means that my video card isn't pulling enough weight. I was told that the first step in upgrading this machine that we should take, is to replace my 2GB video card with a 4GB video card, and that will fix these performance issues that I am having, not RAM.
This is the first machine that has been built over here for this purpose, so it is a learning process for us. I was hoping someone here could give a little insight to my situation.
Thanks for any help.

You have a couple of issues with this system:
Slow E5-2620's. You would be much better off with E5-2687W's
Limited memory. 32 GB is around bare minimum for a dual processor system.
Outdated Quadro 4000 card, which is very slow in comparison to newer cards and is generally not used when transcoding.
Far insufficient disk setup. You need way more disks.
A software raid5 carries a lot of overhead.
The crippled BIOS of Dell does not allow overclocking.
The SSD may suffer from severe 'stable state' performance degradation, reducing performance even more.
You would not be the first to leave a Dell in the configuration it came in. If that is the case, you need a lot of tuning to get it to run decently.
Second thing to consider is what source material are you transcoding to what destination format? If you start with AVCHD material and your destination is MPEG2-DVD, the internal workings of PR may look like this:
Convert AVCHD material to an internal intermediate, which is solely CPU bound. No GPU involvement.
Rescale the internal intermediate to DVD dimensions, which is MPE accelerated, so heavy GPU involvement.
Adjust the frame rate from 29.97 to 23.976, which again is MPE accelerated, so GPU bound.
Recode the rescaled and frame-blended internal intermediate to MPEG2-DVD codec, which is again solely CPU bound.
Apply effects to the MPEG2-DVD encoded material, which can be CPU bound for non-accelerated effects and GPU bound for accelerated effects.
Write the end result to disk, which is disk performance related.
If you export AVCHD to H.264-BR the GPU is out of the game altogether, since all transcoding is purely CPU based, assuming there is no frame blending going on. Then all the limitations of the Dell show up, as you noticed.
