Bug Hyper-V Installation

I installed Hyper-V to developp Windows Phone apps on Visual Studio 2013. When I finished installing all my USB ports stopped working. I uninstalled and everything went back to normal. I'm currently using Windows 8 on a Dell Inspiron 14 (N4050).

Hi,
If it meets the virtualization hardware requirements (X64 CPU ,DEP,VT,SLAT ), then you may try to keep windows 8 and the hardware driver up-to-date .

  • Bug in ADF installer 10.1.3.2?

    I am running IAS 10.1.3.0 and since I am developing in Jdev 10.1.3.2 and I was getting the following error:
    java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: oracle.adf.share.perf.StateTracker.isActive()Z
    when deploying and running my application so I figured I needed ADF runtime installer 10.1.3.2, but after the install I get the following error in my OC4J log when I try to start it:
    07/02/24 20:50:01 Start process
    07/02/24 20:50:04 Error initializing server: Shared library "apache.commons.logging" could not be found.
    07/02/24 20:50:04 Fatal error: server exiting
    I have two entries in my server.xml, one in the the apache.webservices part and one in the oracle.ifs.client part. When I try to locate the commons-logging.jar (which i think has the package) its in the following places:
    /u02/app/oracle/product/ias10103/j2ee/home/applications/PRB/prb/WEB-INF/lib/commons-logging.jar
    /u02/app/oracle/product/ias10103/webservices/lib/commons-logging.jar
    I tried adding the jar explicitly to the server.xml but no luck there. Who can give me a clue?

    Hi,
    this is bug 5884357. The bug is under screening and so far the possible work around mentioned is
    1) Use OC4J version 10.1.3.1 or higher.
    or
    2) Remove the shared library <import-shared-library
    name="apache.commons.logging"/>
    The impact of the second action may be that certain element with runtime dependencies on apache.commons.logging may fail.

  • Bug in Oracle Installer when adding OSA?

    Hi everyone,
    after unsuccessfully trying to add Oracle Advanced Security to my existing setup (every program tells me, that I don't have the required algorithms installed), I found the following in the 9i Administrator Reference:
    Quote: "When you install Oracle Advanced Security, three .bak files are created: naeet.o.bak, naect.o.bak, and naedhs.o.bak. These files are located in the $ORACLE_HOME/lib directory. They are required for relinking during deinstallation of Oracle Advanced Security."
    This is corresponds to my knowledge that these files contain the required protocols and algorithms.
    After checking my lib directory, however, I found out, that those files weren't touched by the installer and there weren't any .bak files either. A call of 'nm' on each of them confirmed that the required symbols aren't in there.
    Does anyone know what I could do to install the correct files? I somehow doubt that removing OSA from the installation and adding it again will do the trick...
    Greetings

    The problem went away. I think it was a bug getting triggered
    by setting the selected items after I had updated the dataProvider
    and refreshing the tree.
    I was having another issue where the selectedItems were lost
    after updating the tree. I fixed it by setting selectedItems using
    callLater() because setting it immediately after updating the tree
    dataProvider was not working as the selection was lost anyways.
    using callLater to do this fixed the selection issue and now
    apparently also the issue with a section of the tree being
    obscured.

  • Y2K bug in Oracle installer = v3.3.1.1.???

    In newsgroup comp.databases.oracle.misc
    I've read the following messages:
    I've heard about a Y2K-Bug in the common Oracle-Installer for
    NT. It was said, that installing any Oracle-product after the 1/1/2000
    will cause system-errors and you will need to reinstall the operating
    system. Is this true or is it nonsens? Does anybody know something
    about it?
    Yes, there is a Y2K-Bug in the Oracle Installer (v3.3.1.1.0 und
    niedriger) You can download a Y2K-compliant Version
    from http://metalink.oracle.com
    Questions:
    Does this bug really exists ?
    Does it affects only NT or Windows95/98 as well ?
    The Developer 6 Server, which you can download to date from Technet, contains an Oracle Installer with version >3.3.1.1 ??
    How to handle the Y2K compliant version ?? (e.g: overwrite the existing version)
    What is the size (in MB) of this Y2K compliant version ?
    Any comments will be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

  • System does not boot during Hyper V installation

    Hi -
    I was trying to install Hyper V on my Windows 8.1 professional edition, 64 bit OS. The installation was through ISO downloaded through MSDN. During installation I had to hard boot my system through switch off. Now my system does not boot correctly and during
    boot it flashes a message "The last windows installation did not complete please install the setup". Does this mean that my existing 8.1 OS has crashed ? how can i come out of this and recover my data ?
    My hardware configuration is :
    i7 processor, 16GB RAM, intel graphics Card, windows 8.1 professional 64 bit OS.

  • Bug in windows installer

    The windows installer for jmf seems to overwrite the CLASSPATH instead of appending, which you would expect.

    There seems to be a bug in Windows 7 when setting the Environment Path Variable from Control Panel - System - Advanced System Settings - System Variables - select Path - click Edit - opens The Edit System Variable dialog box
    The Edit System Variable dialog box displayed the same collection of path strings (each terminated by ';') as I get when I opened a command prompt window and type 'path'. However, it was not possible to add a new path string (c:\wills\bin;) after the last
    string. I presumed that the collection of path strings was too long so I removed a few of the path strings. Unfortunately, I still couldn't type my new path string.
    BUG1: I would appear that length validation for text control in the Edit System Variable dialog box is not set to the same length as the max length for the collection of path strings.
    BUG2: I was eventually able to enter my new path string after deleting some more path strings, but I hit further problems after saving my new path variable (press OK) as it seemed to delete some path strings at the start of the collection. For example %SystemRoot%\system32.
    Therefore, I was unable to reopen the dialog box from Control Panel.

  • Bug: ADF runtime installer fails in 9.0.5.2

    Hi
    Im trying to install ADF libraries to 10g Application Server using the ADF runtime installer of JDeveloper 9.0.5.2. Unfortunately the installer fails while trying to archive some of the old files. The error message is:
    "Can't Archived O:\oracle\OraHome10g\BC4J\lib\adfm.jar to O:\oracle\OraHome10g\BC4JAR.9.0.4.13.79\\BC4J\lib\adfm.jar".
    This is not surprising: Note the double slash at "...\\BC4J...".
    Seems to be a bug.

    Before launching ADF runtime installer you have to stop all OC4J instances and stop the service for enterprise manager.
    In this way I correct that error.

  • Hyper-V Installation schlägt fehl

    Die Installation des Hyper-V unter Windows 8.1 Professional schlägt immer wieder fehl. Obwohl das Hyper-V Feature auswählbar ist und es bei Neustart installiert wird, erfolgt kurzt darauf die Mitteilung, dass die Installation der Feature nicht erfolgen kann
    und die Installation rückgängig gemacht wird.
    System: i7 4770K, ASUS Z97Deluxe, RAM 32GB, INTEL VT aktiviert, Windows 8 Pro Upgrade auf 8.1 Pro, alle Treiber und Windows Updates installiert
    Ursache + Lösungen?
    NEU!
    Interessant ist, wenn INTEL VT im BIOS deaktiviert wird kann Hyper-V installiert werden! Bei der System-Info-Abfrage über die Konsole wird auch die Deaktivierung angezeigt.
    Frage: Weshalb kann ich Hyper-V bei deaktivierten INTEL VT installieren, aber umgekehrt nicht?
    LÖSUNG! LÖSUNG! LÖSUNG!
    Mit einer Testversion von Microsoft Windows 8.1 Enterprise konnte ich Hyper-V nicht nur installieren sondern auch VM's installieren, konfigurieren und starten.
    Zwischen durch habe ich noch einen Versuch mit Microsoft Windows 8 Professional (incl. aller Treiber und Updates) gefahren, aber leider bootete Windows nach der Aktivierung von Hyper-V nicht mehr. Booten konnte ich Windows NUR bei deaktivierten Intel VT
    im BIOS. INTERESSANT!
    EMPFEHLUNG! Für die Verwendung von Hyper-V mit aktueller Hardware ist es wohl angebracht auch ein moderens Betriebssystem zu nutzen.

  • Hyper-V installation and hv_ kernel modules use

    Hi everybody, I'm trying to install Arch as a Virtual Machine under Windows 2008 Server R2 Hyper-V. Someone says (http://blog.allanglesit.com/Blog/tabid/ … vices.aspx) it's possible to configure Ubuntu to use synthetic devices. I've tried with no success and that made me happy because the distro I'd like to use is Arch! Which is now running seamlessly as a Git server on a physical machine.
    Any idea? Is there a way to translate the post I cited for Arch (I'm not able by myself, unfortunately...)?
    Thanks a lot

  • Bugs in the installer

    I have run into a problem reinstalling SOA Suite 11.1.1.4 on a Windows XP laptop. In the confirmation page of the installer I can see that all SOA apps and libraries have target as AdminServer. I can modify it manually but I am not sure how it happened and what is the exact list of apps/libraries that needs to be deployed to the AdminServer vs soa_server1.
    After running the installer I've noticed that the BPM Workspace (and all other soa apps/libraries) was deployed on the AdminServer and not on the managed server soa_server1. Soa_server1 was created and I was able to start it but it does not contain SOA libraries. I have uninstalled all FMW components, and also unistalled WebCenter and UCM. I am now trying to do a fresh/default install on the same machine. When running the config domain for WebLogic, I chose to manually configure Managed Servers, Clusters, and Machines. The default settings were empty. So, I had to manually enter settings for LocalMachine, localhost, and soa_server1. I also moved soa_server1 under the LocalMachine. Still, all soa-infra components are deployed to the AdminServer as indicated in the installer confirmation page.
    Has anyone experience this problem? What can I do to fix it on this Windows XP laptop? Simple uninstall/reinstall of SOA Suite 11g did not help. In the confirmation page of the installer I can see that all SOA apps and libraries have target as AdminServer. Do I need to clear Windows registry entries so that installer uses normal deplyment targets? I'd appreciate your advice please. It could be that my laptop was "broken" by the WebCenter or UCM because I did not have this problem prior to installing UCM.
    Thank you,
    Igor
    Edited by: user13528750 on Mar 1, 2011 5:55 PM

    I think that on Windows XP single server deployment is not recommened, I saw it somewhere in the documentation. Linux is fine since it allows for larger than 2G process memory space. Let me know if you had a different experience.
    I managed to manually configure deployment targets by running the weblogic installer on a different machine and looking at target setting for each component there. It was a tedious process and I wonder if there is any way to "reset" the installer. Also, is it documented somewhere which app/library should be deployed to which server?
    Thank you,
    Igor

  • 5800 V50.0.005 FW Bug, Secure Widget Installer loo...

    I installed the new firmware for my 5800, it b0rked. Basically a program called a SecureWidgetPreInstaller goes on a loop, it doesn't finish the installation procedure, rather uses all the available processing power of the cellphone and causes unresponsiveness of a major kind.
    I'm not able to force the program to shut down and as such, the phone is unusable. Rebooting doesn't help as the program starts itself automatically during the boot-up.
    Any ideas? Comments? Help? 
    Cheers

    Got no such system error. Did you update via NSU, FOTA or Ovi?
    Please note that an existing corruption in the phone during an update may cause the update to go haywire, and as such I strongly advise to hard reset the phone before and after the update, which is why I probably do not get the error.
    Now since you guys are having an error, I would suggest to hard reset the phone, reinstall the firmware via NSU or Ovi Suite, then do a hard reset again. The procedure for a hard reset is:
    A hard reset (x6, 5800 and 5230 only) is done by the following (warning, this deletes all data on your phone):
    1.) Turn off the phone and remove battery for 5min
    2.) Reinsert battery
    3.) Press and hold the green, red and camera buttons. DO NOT LET GO.
    4.) While holding the three buttons, press the power key to boot the phone up.
    5.) Keep on pressing until you see the country selection screen.
    A correctly done hard reset would show you that everything on the phone (contacts, messages, calendar entries, etc) would be deleted. So it is advisable to back them up. Upon restoration, do not restore settings or files if possible.

  • Bug in the installation - Missing option to install Eclipse

    Hi there. I've got a weird issue installing build 569 where it is expecting that I already have Eclipse 3.2 pre-installed and it doesn't give me the option to select the bundled Eclipse. The file is downloaded is named FullWorkshopStudioTrialInstall-569.zip.
    Thanks

    vcarpent at wellsfargo.com

    Please provide the following information:
    What OS are you working on?
    Re-launch installer and hold Cntrl key until a console pops-up in the background, continue with the installation - Do you see the "Choose Eclipse" screen similar to the one at http://edocs.bea.com/workshop/docs92/studio32/Installation/InstallationInstructions.html#Plugin
    If not, describe the exact steps and also send the debug statements to [email protected]
    FYI: Indeed it is a weird scenario which I am not able to reproduce. As a workaround you can download WTP1.5      (wtp-all-in-one-sdk..) and install Workshop as a plug-in.

  • Bug & Conflict w/ Palm Destop 6 & Windows Media Player

    I am a long time Palm user but my T2 was not getting much use considering I was already carrying Two cell phones. But I was excited to get an upgrade to a Centro for one of my phones. Now I am dealing with the differences between PalmDesktop4 (PD4) and PD6 on Windows XP SP3.
    I found what appears to be a critical bug in the installation of PD6 in that it has some very undesirable interactions with Windows Media Player (WMP) 10 & 11. Let me preface by saying that I am not using WMP or PocketTunes for any syncing or transferring any media to my Centro. My Centro is only used for calendar, contacts, calculators, and Docs2Go.
    I have installed PD6 and the PD6 user data to a removable drive for personal privacy on a work computer. The error is that when ever the drive is not mounted and wmplayer.exe is started, Windows searches for the Palm Access Installation package on my removable drive and attempts to start a installation of PD6. Of course it does not find the .msi and the only thing that happens is my computer locks up till I close WMP and then the ACCESS installer goes away. If the removable drive is mounted with the PD6 application directory and the PD6 user data, WMP loads quickly and appears to work fine.
    Why is WMP trying to connect to applications or support files in the PD6 application directory?
    I can only assume that the new PD6 media tab now is hooked into some windows media services. PD6 must be registered as a client/helper app to windows media and WMP is trying to load or locate the registered resources.
    The big problem with this is that my user data path gets over written with PD6 installation defaults in the Windows Registry and I have to manually reset all the PalmDesktop registry data to point PD6 at my really user path on the V: drive.
    This should not be installed this way. The association between the two applications appears to be an error in the ACCESS installation package for PD6.
    I used Palm.com “Chat” support four or five time for some very basic support in getting my new Centro setup. The Palm.com “Chat” support was great. For this issue they were absolutely useless. One support person affirmed that I should be able to use the removable drive, the next just had me do reinstalls for PD6 (that I had already done) and then told me I would have to use the defaults for C:\Program Files and D:\Documents and Settings\username... They recommended that I use the Palm.com phone support number.
    I did this and it had to be one of the worse support calls I have made in a while (case number 1-51474282949). Why is it impossible to get any computer software or hardware company to support the desktop software they putout? I got the same tech support baby talk about “reinstalling the application”, “use the default installation path”, “its not our application” and “you will have to contact Microsoft for support on your operating system”. Ahhhhh!
    I was not even able to speak with a “Level 2” tech support person. I demanded that I be connected to a technical person a not just fed the same FAQ crap that I could find on the website. The “Level 2” person would not take my call but just passed the message to the “Level 1” Person that I would have to contact Microsoft.
    So I am posting this message here to the Palm fourm in hope that the software engineering team will see this and be able to either patch their software or give me the .reg key to break the association between WMP and PD6. Below I have posted a long list of my Chat support that explains the issues in further technical details, and also details the lack of detailed skilled support available at Palm.com.
    Help? Direction?
    I have my palm application directory installed to V:\PalmDesktop6App and the user data files installed to V:\jcollyer-files\PalmDataV6_001 This is a removable drive that I install on my work computer. I remove this drive and take it home with me. Doing this allows me the ability to keep my palm data secure but I can still use my computer at work to manage my palm data.
    If the V:\ drive is not mounted when I run palm desktop, Palm desktop messes up the "Path" regestry key:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop\Core]
    "DesktopPath"="V:\\PalmDesktop6App\\"

    @=""
    "Desktop Language"="ENG"
    "INSTALLDIR"="V:\\PalmDesktop6App\\"
    "VM_Username"="John Collyer"
    When the key gets messed up it defaults to the standard palm desktop path:
    "C:\Documents and Settings\jcollyer\My Documents\Palm OS Desktop"
    I found this out because every time Windows Media player starts it tries to start Palm Desktop or the Palm Desktop install/remove program. I get a pop up window and progress bar that says “Palm Desktop by Access”. The only way to get rid of this pop up window is to shut down windows media player. So if my V: drive is not mounted just starting windows media player corrupts the user “Path” registry settings. It just so happens our work voicemail uses media player on the computer.

    What the heck is going on? How can I stop Windows Media Player from triggering the palm desktop application? Better yet why does it even try?
    It does this when I simply open windows media player, even without a file. Just opening the Windows Media player application by it’s self causes this behavior.

    John_Collyer > I had this problem from the first install about two weeks. I use PalmDesktop 4 with my T2 for years on a removable drive never had an issue. PD6 only allows me to set the user path during installation. So I have been having issues with the reg keys getting messed up for a while. I though just creating a .reg file to fix the problems was going to be simple till I found windows media player was trying to autostart palm software???
    John_Collyer > Windows XP SP3
    John_Collyer > I am a new owner of the Palm Centro not using the T2 with PD6
    Dan > Thank you for information .
    Dan > I got the issue .
    Dan > There are more than one version of the Palm software in the computer .
    John_Collyer > No only PD6 now
    Dan > That's reason the Drivers in the Registry are messing up and causing the issue .
    Dan > Okay .
    Dan > Do you have any data in the Palm Desktop ?
    John_Collyer > Yes, when the V: drive is mounted everything works great, perfect. Windows Media player even load without a hitch. I would even deal with the .reg fix work around I made to over write the registry. I still don't understand why the application tries to load when it is installed on the V: drive if the v: drive is not present. It has to be the install/uninstall .msi file that runs the Add/Remove programs feature in widows control panel. Why does any of this change the user path?
    Dan > I will explain you .
    Dan > The reason for change of the path is with the corrupted applications and computer settings .
    John_Collyer > Sorry, Why would the .msi file run if Windows Media is started?
    Dan > .MSI file is the supporting file for Windows Media player .
    Dan > That's reason for executing of .msi file during the windows media player .
    Dan > To fix the issue we must perform clean uninstall and reinstall so that you will not have any further issue .
    Dan > Let me know if you are comfortable with the clean uninstall and reinstall if the Palm software .
    John_Collyer > I've uninstalled PD6 and reinstalled it like 12 times. If the V: drive is missing it really messes up the PD6 software. To keep me from doing this by launching PD6 from the C: drive I installed it to V:. No .exe no launchy. It works fine. What is hooking into windows media player. A .msi is a Microsoft install package, not a media file. We can do a clean install but why would running windows media player start the palm install/uninstall .msi file? I have not heard why?
    John_Collyer > All my installs have worked fine. Unless there is a deeper cleaning process you can help me with other than running the remove program, is it worth trying AGAIN?
    Dan > Did you perform clean uninstall and reinstall >
    John_Collyer > Clean = remove program, reinstall, and sync to a new user folder? Then Yes. Other options?
    Dan > No we need top perform few other steps .
    John_Collyer > Ok shall I "Remove Program"?
    Dan > No please wait .
    Dan > First please let me know if you have any data in the Palm Desktop in the computer .
    John_Collyer > Yes, but it is also going to be kept in the phone correct? It will survive if we create a new user folder right?
    Dan > Yes .
    Dan > Please let me know the user name given during the Sync .
    John_Collyer > Well then I think it is safe, I have recently hotsynced so the data should be a match?
    John_Collyer > John Collyer
    Dan > Cool .
    Dan > Thank you for information .
    Dan > In the computer open My documents -->Palm OS Desktop-->locate folder called CoolyJ .

    Dan > Please wait .
    Dan > Please right click on the Palm Desktop and then click on Properties .

    Dan > I will assist you .

    Did all this above. Still have Windows Media Player trying to launch the ACCESS .msi installer which creates these processes:
    IDriver.exe (x5)
    IdriverT.exe (x1)
    MSIexec.exe (x3)
    I have let windows media player and windows installer run a bit longer and I get a second window titled "windows installer" with the text:
    The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
    Click OK to try again, or enter and alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'Palm Desktop by ACCESS.msi' in the box below.
    [C:\DOCUME~1\jcollyer\LOCALS~1\Temp\_is4\]
    this is the default text.
    I browsed my way to C:\WINDOWS\Installer and found a new .msi for PD6 called C:\WINDOWS\Installer\45599.msi and renamed it to C:\WINDOWS\Installer\45599_PalmNeedsBetterSoftware​_msi
    Still have the same issues from above. I thought if the .msi failed to be found then the error might just get passed over. So I do not know where IDriver.exe or other MS Installer applications is getting the values for 'Palm Desktop by ACCESS.msi'?
    Again it is very odd that the ACCESS installer it trying to run when windows media player is launched (even with out any media, app only). Please do not tell me to do another "Clean Install" that is just BABY-TALK tech support at this point!!! I need to know why the PalmDesktop ACCESS installer is hooking into Windows Media Player. There is no doubt something odd is going on. As long as the V: drive where my Palm Desktop applications and user data is stored there is no problem. As soon as the V: drive is off line I have all these issues.
    I noticed that PalmDesktop now has advanced media tools to "Make Video" in the media tab of Palm Desktop. This is where you can export a .mpg slide show of all you photos from your palm photos.
    I would bet you a free year of Verizon's wireless data plan that the new Palm Desktop is registered as some type of client application to windows media service. When windows media player loads it tries to register all the clients and the Palm media client application is not available so some how MS Windows tries to start the PalmDesktop installer to fix the client media application.
    Please note that I am not using Pocket Tunes at all, not trying to sync pTunes with Windows media or Rhapsody or any other media junk. Right now I want my palm to just be a extra smart contact and calendar manager, that’s all.
    PALM NEEDS TO PATCH THIS. Palm Desktop should call Windows Media when it needs it, not have Palm Desktop registered as a client application to Windows Media by default!
    PLEASE TELL ME THERE IS A SIMPLE FAQ FIX FOR ALL NONSENSE???
    Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

    Thank you so much for replying.
    Yes I have removed and reinstalled WMP.
    I had good results with the PD6 application installed on the default path onto the C: drive with the one exception that if the application was launched by accident and the user data path was not available, the PD6 application would blow away my custom user path registry settings. Now that I know what they are I have made a .reg file to repair my registry to my desired user data paths.
    Installing the application on the removable drive appeared to help prevent me from launching the application by accident and overwriting my registry with default user paths.
    So which is the less of the two evils?
    If the application directory is not available, windows media player still tries to launch the .msi for installing PD6.
    If I install the application to the C: drive but the user data to the removable drive, launching the PD6 application without the user data drive will still corrupt my registry settings for a user data path.
    Both these issues seem like a logical (if not easy) fix that should be done in the PD6 application and installation package. I mean really, cannot anyone tell me why windows media player is checking the PD6 application directory? Why in PD4 did we have an option control for setting the user data path from the PD4 application? Why is this option not in the PD6 application, just the installer?
    I am given a choice during installation to move the user data to another non default location. Why else would this be provided if not to accommodate my kind of request to store the user data into an alternate location other than “My Document”. Certainly Palm is not trying to force the users on how to protect and store their personal data?

  • Photoshop CS2 Upgrade Installation Problems w/ Vista Problems

    I recently purchased a new laptop w/ Windows Vista which I'm trying to install my copy of Photoshop CS2 onto. My Photoshop license is an upgrade license ... originally upgraded from Photoshop v4.0.
    When installing an upgrade copy of PS CS2, it requires proof of your previous version in order to verify you're a legitimate upgrader. This works fine if you're upgrading from a version of Photoshop after 5.x ...you simply insert your CD and the installation continues. The installation process is less straight-forward for users like myself ... installing from an upgraded version prior to 5. I'm required to call Adobe ... and conduct a phone verification procedure where I give them a code displayed on the screen during installation and they give me a response code to type into the installation form.
    I deauthorized my old laptop ... start the installation routine on my new laptop ... call Adobe w/ my verification code ... enter the response code (which is accepted) and complete the installation without any problems. My problem occurs when I go to run the software. The startup screen indicates that the software is still in "Tryout Mode", and the first window I'm presented with is the "Adobe Activation" window requesting my serial number. If I try to enter my CS2 serial number it is rejected with the message:
    "You must enter a valid serial number before activating online or viewing activation options. Please check your serial number and re-enter it, or click the Purchase button to buy a copy of this product"
    The thing is ... this IS a valid serial number. I've confirmed this with Adobe. (It's probably an upgrade serial number, which is why the software is rejecting it). I called Adobe and they're now telling me that I must enter a paid-support agreement in order to receive help installing my software. They claim their software is working correctly, and it must be a problem with my computer.
    Has anybody experienced a problem like this? I refuse to pay more for something that worked fine on XP just to use it on Vista due to bugs in their installation and activation routine.

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

    Have the bugs of using with Vista been fixed, or still not working? thanks,
    I know this is an old problem, but surely there is an answer to fix the problem by now...
    What problems?  I used Photoshop CS2 with Vista with no problems (I still have it installed on a Vista system if you'd like me to check anything in particular).  CS3 and CS4 worked well as well.  Haven't tried CS5 on Vista as I have moved up to Windows 7, but I suspect it works just fine.

    Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) for 8.1.x Hangs on Machines
    with Pentium 4
    Processors
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Versions Affected
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Oracle 8.1.5
    ============
    Oracle Universal Installer 1.6.0.9.0
    Oracle 8.1.6
    =============
    Oracle Universal Installer 1.7.0.19.0
    Oracle 8.1.7
    ==============
    Oracle Universal Installer 1.7.1.9.0
    Platforms Affected
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the
    Sun JRE
    and Symmantec JIT will encounter this problem. Windows NT,
    Windows 2000
    and NetWare platforms are confirmed to be affected.
    Description
    ~~~~~~~~~~~
    When installing Oracle Products with the Oracle Universal
    Installer (8.1.x)
    on machines that use the Sun JRE and Symmantec JIT, the
    installer hangs.
    Specifically for the Windows platform, the following version
    of the Symmantec
    JIT or earlier will encounter the failure:
    Symantec Java! JustInTime Compiler Version 3.10.107 for JDK
    1.2.
    Details regarding this issue can be found at:
    http://developer.intel.com/design/processor/future/manuals/knowni ssue.htm
    How to determine if you have Symmantec Java for JDK 1.2:
    1. Select the file "symcjit.dll" and right click on it.
    2. Select Properties, then the Version tab.
    3. Under Microsoft Windows*, the properties of the DLL are:
    "Symantec Java! JustInTime Compiler Version 3.10.107 for
    JDK 1.2 Copyright (C)
    1996-99 Symantec Corporation Dynamic Link Library file".
    DLLs older than this will also not work. "
    Likelihood of Occurrence
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the
    Sun JRE
    and Symmantec JIT will encounter this problem. Windows NT,
    Windows 2000 and NetWare platforms are confirmed to be
    affected.
    Possible Symptoms
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The failure typically is that the affected application simply
    terminates.
    Workaround
    ~~~~~~~~~~
    Not only will OUI be affected by this bug, most of the
    post-install
    configuration tools will also be affected. Running these
    tools with "-nojit"
    specified will avoid the hang, but it is not simple to specify
    "-nojit" for
    some of the products.
    The following workaround works for the Windows operating
    system:
    a. Copy only the install directory from the CD to the hard
    disk ,say, e:\temp.
    b. Open oraparam.ini and make the following modifications
    (Assuming CD
    drive is f:)
    * Change the "SOURCE=" line to use the full path to the CD
    instead of a
    relative path. (i.e., SOURCE=f:\stage\products.jar)
    * Change the "JRE_LOCATION" line to use the full path to the
    CD instead of a
    relative path. (i.e.,
    JRE_LOCATION=f:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\jre\1.1.7\1\DataFiles
    \Expanded)
    * Change the "OUI_LOCATION" line to use the full path to the
    CD instead of a
    relative path. (i.e.,
    OUI_LOCATION=f:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\oui\1.6.0.9.0\1\DataF
    iles\Expanded
    * Change the "JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS" line to add "-nojit" as the
    first argument.
    (i.e., JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m)
    ^^^^^^
    * Other entries should remain the same
    c. Launch setup.exe from the temporary location on your hard
    drive (i.e.
    e:\temp\install\win32\setup.exe). This will use the
    modified
    oraparam.ini and pick up the information from the CD since
    the absolute
    locations are specified.
    Choose a Custom install and choose not to create a database
    during the
    install. This way, the Database Configuration Assistant will
    not be launched
    during installation.
    The Net8 Configuration Assistant will still be launched, and
    there is no way
    to suppress it. You will need to kill the Net8 Configuration
    Assistant if it
    hangs due to the bug. The installation still will have been
    successful, and
    you can run the DBCA and NetCA after installation.
    To kill NetCA if it hangs during installation:
    In the "Configuration Tools" window, highlight the "Net8
    Configuration
    Assistant" and click "Stop". If that does not work, look for
    the most recent
    JRE process using the Task Manager, and kill it manually.
    NOTE: the OUI
    itself will also have a jre process. Be sure to kill the one
    with the most
    recent date, which should be the jre process being used for
    Net8CA, not the
    one for OUI itself.
    After killing the configuration tools and continuing through
    the installation
    to the "End of Installation" screen, you should modify the
    configuration tools
    to use "-nojit", then call the appropriate tools from the
    Start Menu.
    Once installation is complete, each of the following files in
    the ORACLE_HOME
    needs to be modified:
    assistants\dbca\dbassist.cl
    assistants\dbma\dbmig.cl
    assistants\ifa\ifa.cl
    bin\elogin.cl
    bin\owm.cl
    ldap\oidamdin\oidadmin.cl
    network\tools\netasst.cl
    network\tools\netca.cl
    owm\install\instelogin.cl
    owm\install\instowm.cl
    Edit the contents of the above files to add "-nojit" as shown
    below:
    Command=("C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.7\BIN\JREW" -nojit
    -classpath ....
    this is the only thing you need to add --> ^^^^^^
    Then, launch the necessary tools, like Net8CA and DBCA from
    the Start Menu.
    Patches
    ~~~~~~~
    Currently there is not a patched installer available to deal
    with this
    problem, the workaround listed above must be used.

    The solution of making a local copy of the installation CD on
    the hard disk and renameing symcjit.dll to symcjit.old does
    work to allow installation of Oracle Client 8.1.7 on a Pentium 4
    This function is useful and you can find two file to rename
    ===============================================================
    Windows ME
    Solution to the installation of Oraclei8.1.7 PE in Windows Millennium
    Oracle does not support installing version 8.1.7 PE into
    Windows Millennium.
    As an unsupported workaround, you may add the following line
    to the [compatibility95] section of win.ini prior to
    installation:
    Jrew=0x00080000
    After setup is complete, Oracle will recommend a reboot.
    There is one additional step necessary prior to reboot;
    Oracle may add a non-standard path statement to the
    autoexec.bat file. Please modify this SET PATH
    statement to use short-filenames if you find a quoted
    LFN string represented as part of the path. You can
    confirm that the path was merged successfully into the
    registry after reboot by examining the PATH variable
    in the registry at
    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\Environment
    Symptoms of a missing Oracle path statement in the registry are that Net8 Easy Config will not launch.
    Please note that Oracle does not support the use of this
    product in Windows ME, but have authorized these workarounds
    for testing purposes only.
    ===============================================================
    Windows XP Home Edition
    Oracle 8i is not certified on windows XP. Even if yes, it must be Windows XP Professional.
    You can install Oracle8i on windows XP Home Edition, try like this:
    1 - Copy your Oracle CD into hard disk in your
    machine. For example Copy from oracle8i CD into C:\Oracle\ ...
    2 - Search the two files named Symcjit.dll on the D drive (where you have copied Oracle8i. You can found them in (example):
    C:\Oracle\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre\1.1.7.30\1
    \DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin\symcjit.dll
    3 - Rename this file (Example): symcjit_back.dll (make sure to find two files and rename them)
    4 - Execute the Oracle setup.exe from C:\Oracle\setup.exe
    ===============================================================
    When Oracle 8i dies on the install or the installer hangs, here is the fix for this, make sure that you have Service Pack 2 installed.
    1. \JRE\1.3.1\ From Sun. (You can download java program at http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/download-jre-windows.html)
    2. Install the java file.
    There is also a problem in the installation disk.
    3. Make a copy of the Oracle 8i disk on the local hard disk.
    4. Do a search for the two files called symcjit.dll and rename them for example: symcjit.old.
    5. Install Oracle from the win32 directory.
