Error installing windows xp via bootcamp

Hi guys,
I just bought my macbook pro yesterday and I tried to install windows xp via bootcamp and after the installing it says "setup is starting windows" and then an error saying "session3initializationfailed" came out.
I downloaded windows xp sp3 from my university and burn it into a disk.
Can anybody tell me what's going on or what did i do wrong?
Thanks

Greetings Appelonians
I am privileged to have attained a brand new Macbook Pro 2010. I am not completely new to Apple and have used 'boot camp' on my other iMac's have have owned previously. In the process of installing Windows XP on the new Macbook Pro, I came upon a few challenging errors, some I have solved, but others getting the best of me at them moment. I am going to run through my situation I am at the moment, starting with my initial challenge, the solutions I came up with and at last the cul de sac I am at the moment.
The family of errors all evolved with me trying to install Windows XP on my Mac
A) Windows on my Macbook
1) I used Boot Camp to create a 50gm partition for Windows XP.
2) I booted up with the WinXP Install CD (original)
3) Deleted the Boot Camp Partition, recreating it and formatted it as NTFS.
4) Rebooted and got my first error after choosing to have the Macbook reboot with the newly installed WinXP partition.
Error
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
<windows_root>\System32\hal.dll
Please re-install a copy of the above file.
windows_root\System32\hal.dll missing or corrupt:
Please re-install a copy of the above file.
Windows could not start because of a computer disk hardware configuration problem.
Could not read from the selected boot disk. Check boot path and disk hardware.
Please check the Windows documentation about hardware disk configuration and your hardware reference manuals for additional information.
Error Fix
1) I used a Bootdisk created by BartPE and changed a line in the Boot.ini file. Apparently this issue is due to the fact that the Macbook Pro has a 200Mb partition, the Boot.ini refers incorrectly to the wrong partition when trying to complete the WinXP installation after rebooting.
2) I changed the line in the Boot.ini that refers to the partition as 3 to 2 (see bold below):
[quote][boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect [/quote]
3) This fixed the issue and Windows started after the reboot, remember still that my WinXP installation is still incompete.
B) Blue Screen of Death
1) During the WinXP run screen, my second error popped up as one of the dreaded [URL="http://justasktheitguy.com/software/blue-screen-unmountablebootvolume-stop-0x000000ed-0xaaaaaaaa0xbbbbbbbb0xcccccccc0xdddddddd/"]Blue Screen of Death[/URL], as found at the mentioned link.
2) It seems that this error is caused by a problem with an IDE cable or the BIOS in which case you just replace the cable or reload the fail-safe default settings in the BIOS. However, most of the time this error is caused by some sort of problem with the volume.
3) I booted again with my boot disk and ran 'chkdsk -r' and there after 'fixboot' to fix any errors regarding the volume of the HDD. (Fix can be found at the above mentioned 'Blue Screen of Death' link.)
4) Now I know that Mac does not use a BIOS but a EFI and this is where I am stuck.
All I need is to get WinXP installed properly on my New Macbook Pro. I had no trouble installing WinXP on my other iMacs and this has been the first time I had this issue. I do own a copy of Parallels, but I would like to run WinXP on a seperate partition with the option of either booting up with WinXP as well as using WinXP as Virtual Machine in Snow Leopard.
Hope some one out there can assist me, please.

The user function manager DLL (ufmanager.dll) could not be found.

Hi Everyone,
I just spent two horrible days getting a Windows 2003 server to run our .net 2008 asp Crystal report. It was all because of the unknown.rpt error. The final answer was to give the NETWORK SERVICE account full control to the C:\ and then remove that permission.
Now, I'm up to my next challenge:
Error in File C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\CrystalReport {2A76C903-674A-4A7B-AA04-44FC7E206C3F}.rpt:
The user function manager DLL (ufmanager.dll) could not be found.
That dll is there on the server. What should I do?
Please help!!!!
Thanks,
Ed

Ok, here is where the fun begins as the issue you are getting is not something I've run into before. A few clarifications and suggestions re. troubleshooting.
I used the latest runtime.msi
- confirm this was CRRedist2008_x86.msi (just want to be sure)
pdf about the unknown.rpt.
- do you have a link or name of the pdf?
To troubleshoot let's do this:
1) Download the depends utility. I want to see if there is a missing dependency. depends is here:
http://www.dependencywalker.com/
open the ufmanager.dll in depends and see what it reports.
2) Run Process Monitor utility. ProcMon can be downloaded from here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx
Make sure you filter ProcMon for your process as this will shrink the log file. Then look for ufmanager.dll and see where the app is trying to load it from.
3) Check this registry entry:
HKLM\software\business objects\10.5\crystal reports
See that CommonFiles is pointing to c:\program files\business objects\common\2.8\bin.
4) Copy the ufmanager.dll from c:\program files\business objects\common\2.8\bin to your app directory (this is just a test as I want to see if we can load the dll from anywhere...)

How to up the timeout setting to solve password reset portal error "Authentication gate timed out waiting for a challenge response"?

Hi Everyone,
We have the password portal up and running on one box and another server with FIM R2 and SharePoint 2010. All is good with the exception that our end users typically get distracted during the password registration and/or reset process and receive:
"An error has occurred. Please try again, and if the problem persists, contact your help desk or system administrator. (Error 3000) ". The timeout kicks in after 5 minutes of inactivity in the browser.
The FIM Service log shows the following:
"Authentication gate timed out waiting for a challenge response".
I have confirmed that the default password portal web.config setting is <add key="SessionTimeoutInMinutes" value="20" />.
We have also updated Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Service.exe.config per this
article to the following but with no luck:
<resourceManagementClient resourceManagementServiceBaseAddress="myAddress" timeoutInMilliseconds="600000" />
<resourceManagementService externalHostName="myHost" dataReadTimeoutInSeconds="600" dataWriteTimeoutInSeconds="600"/>
We did not update the Windows SharePoint Servicesweb.config setting per the article about since we are on SharePoint 2010.
There is no NLB or firewall in front on this server.
If anyone has any solution to how to solve this on FIM R2/SharePoint 2010 please let me know.
Cheers!

FIM_Admin,
You could try changing the receiveTimeoutInSeconds parameter of the resourceManagementService node in your Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Service.exe.config file. However, you are warned not to do this unless instructed to by MS customer support.

Dial-up and iTunes 7 challenged! Error 8003

Hello,
I'm pretty much stuck with dial-up internet access speed in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. When I had iTunes 6.0 I successfully downloaded the latest season of 24 to my laptop, but since I upgraded to iTunes 7.0 I've had challenges downloading episodes of Survivor.
I routinely get error 8003 stating that a connection was lost to iTunes and/or the "network." That may be possible as our connectivity here is questionable. However, I thought there would be a recovery option for iTunes to pick up where it left off downloading a show. Maybe since the episodes I've bought are almost 2x the size from when I downloaded episodes of 24, the outages are too close together to successfully download a show.
Does anyone have any ideas? I don't know whether to complain to my internet provider or complain to Apple/iTunes.
Thanks!

Error 1417 fixed.
But....WHAT IS up with this v-e-r-y s-l-o-w ripping of songs to my i-tunes library???? Excessively slow................
Rgds
Rod

Cant sync songs- numerous errors and issues- anyone up for a challenge?

okay so first a bit of backstory
So about a month ago i downloaded the new itunes (10) for windows.
It could have been connected to it and could not have been, but my 160GB ipod classic started going funny. it will skip songs halfway when playing them, and not play other songs.
So i decided to try and restore it, going by the book. so i first took out all of my extra stuff i had on it (I have been using it as a storage hard drive for pictures and movies round 10gigs) and restored it.
However, when i tried to resync it with itunes, it would only sync to about half way through, and say Itunes could not sync (name of song) to the ipod (ipod name) because the file cannot be read or written. alternatively, because an unknown error has occured (-50). so i will only have about half the songs (usually less) on my ipod or non at all.
I tried these solutions :
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1539 and tried resetting the ipod, restoring the ipod several times and reinstalling itunes but non helped.
all i got was more problems, such as sometimes when i plug it ,my computer will also pop up with a message saying "windows was unable to save all the dad for the file F:, the data has been lost. this error may be caused by a failure of your computer hardware or network connection. please try to save this file elsewhere"
and "The specified I/O operation on \Device\harddisk1\DR9\ was not completed before the time out period expired.", together with the old ones.
also comes up "The Ipod (name of ipod) could not be synced. a duplicate filename was specified" and a few other varieties of these messages.
so evil ipod 1 itunes support 0
would anyone like to take the challenge of trying to help me????

While you may have got away with skipping the disk checks for some time it is there for a reason. iTunes may well decline/be unable to properly restore a disk which is in an inconsistent state. Have you yet checked via diagnostics mode (see link my earlier post to this thread) to see what the SMART stats are for your drive?
To check your disk for consistency connect your iPod and open a command prompt (Start > Run > CMD) and enter ChkDsk X: /R where X is the drive letter of the iPod. (If it doesn't have one disconnect, stick it in disk mode and reconnect) This will perform a full scan of the drive which attempts to read & write to every sector. Depending on how the drive & the operating syetem handle things it may that no "bad" sectors will be detected during the scan, but any that can't be reliably accessed should be added to the "pending sector" count. Following the disk scan you should again check the stats (see earlier link) to see where things stand. Restoring the iPod via iTunes should release the pending sectors so they can be taken out of service and become reallocated sectors.
With luck there is a fixed number of problem sectors and once these are mapped out your iPod will behave normally. Worst case is that the drive is deteriorating with use which would be apparent if repeated attempts to restore and populate the drive leads to increasing values of pending & reallocated sectors.

Challenge of the day - "beginner" errors in SAP-delivered transactions

1. Read this post here:
Question on SWUI_SINGLE and SWUI_START
2. Name another SAP-delivered transaction that exhibits the same incorrect behavior as SWUI_SINGLE and SWUI_START.
Note: Assume that the behavior of these transactions at this customer site is not due to an error in system config, but rather to insufficient internal SAP QA/QC.
If the behavior of SWUI_SINGLE and SWUI_START is not due to a config error at this customer site, these are really remarkable transactions. I've never seen SAP transactions delivered with such gross "beginner" errors.
Have you?

Hi Stephen -
How could I teach them "/nex" when I had deliberately forgotten it myself ... I'm the guy you love to hate when you're standing behind him watching him try to get something done "fast" ... I still go up to the menu bar for copy/paste/cut in Office sometimes ...
It's my way of being old-fashioned - like the engineers who wouldn't give up their rules for calculators ...
As far as EEWB goes, well I can see why nobody cares about it ... remember the old saying:
"Real programmers don't program in wussy languages like LISP ... they program right down to the bare metal" ...
... same goes for any tool that has "easy" and "workbench" in it ...
Just kidding, of course ...

Blue screen error when connecting an ethernet cable

I have a Compaq Presario 5300US desktop that I'm trying to upgrade. It has 512mb (max) of memory and a newer video card than the factory one. I installed Vista Home Basic on it with no problems. I also installed a pci ethernet card along with the Vista drivers that came with it. I checked tha card's properties in "device manager" and it said "This device is working properly". I haven't plugged in an ethernet cable to the card at this point. Everything is working OK, but as soon as I try to connect the card to my router, I get a blue screen with this message:
Hardware Malfunction
NMI: Parity Check / Memory Parity Error
*** The system has halted***
I don't get any memory errors as long as I don't try to use the ethernet card.

Hello @larrycarol99,
I understand that after upgrading your computer when you plug in an ethernet cord you get a hardware malfunction error. I am providing you with a Microsoft Support document: Hardware Malfunction Results in System Error Message that explains what causes that error and provides steps on fixing it. I am also including a link to the Compaq Presario 5300US Desktop PC Drivers page, which unfortunately does not have any drivers for your computer running Windows Vista.
I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Tax error while posting an invoice in SRM

We are using SRM 5.5 SP4, ECS and ECC 6.0. We are using vertex for tax caluculation and we configured the tax calculation to always occur in ECC.
One more important point is, client has decided to use invoicing in SRM. Now the problem is we ran in to so many tax related issues and we opened OSS messages for this but SAP did not help. Let me explain the problem in detail.
1) We used to get "Tax jurisdiction code could not be determined" error while creating shopping cart, but we implemented note 436760 and hardcoded a value and got rid of that error.
2) When we create a SC, the copy of PO is created in ECC and vertex is called for tax calculation and tax is calculated properly based on the tax hierarchy except when you use the Shipping Address (external), so when I used the delivery address other than plant, it should calculate based on that address but it was not doing that, its calculating based on the cost object's jurisdiction code. For this problem, we have implemented ME_ADDRESS BADI in ECC, but with this BADI, it is always taking delivery address's jurisdiction code, which is also wrong.
The tax jurisdiction determination should be from 1) Delivery address if its different from plant, else it should look in to the cost object, else storage location then plant.
So we implemented the above logic in that BADI and there is no problem with PO taxes.
3) When we create an invoice with reference to PO, the invoice verification program is always determining the tax jurisdiction code from plant even though the taxes on PO are calculated based on cost object, hence the IDOC is erroring out by saying there is a difference in tax.
So we implemented the user exit and used the same logic of tax determination and its fixed now.
4) Finally, we are trying to create invoices without PO's in SRM, here no tax calculation is happending in SRM, but when we try to post the invoice in to ECC, we are getting the following error
"SAX processing failed on input stream#SAX processing failed when attempting to add child element to parent. (parent element=com.vertexinc.tps.common.domain.LineItem, child element=com.vertexinc.tps.x.."
So I am not sure how to fix this, we are at the dead end now out of ideas, so trying to get some help from experts like you about looking at this problem in a different angle. Now there are a couple of questions I can ask you
1) Did we do something wrong by selecting R/3 as the tax calculation system, if not is it difficult to fix this error and move forward?
2) What if we need to change the design and start calculating the taxes in SRM by connecting SRM to Vertex, will there be any new challenges? and do you have any config doc for this? Also we are implementing this rollout for US, Canada and Mexico companies.
I would really appreciate if you can reply me with your valuable input. You can also email me if @ [email protected]
Thanks a lot,

Hi
It's recommended to have the same Tax related configuration data replicated in SRM system from R/3 as well.
I don't recommeded you to go with Hard-coding of tax codes.
We have faced similar issues with Delivery address and we have to solve it using our custom logic inside the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI and BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK BADIs.
Anyways, send the detailed business requirements to my mail which are already having with you. )
I will definitely help you out.

Error while connecting to SQL Server 2000 using Heteregenous Services 11g

Hope this is the right thread to post on! We have been given the challenge of connecting to and reading data from a SQL Server 2000 database.
Our Infrastructure guys have set up the network access.
The SQL Server DB is set to windows NT Authentication only (N.B. NOT Mixed Mode) as there is an application running against the DB locally that will not run under Mixed Mode.
Our Oracle partner has download and installed the 11g Heteregenous Services. all works fine until the point we try to create the DBLink and then connect to the SQL Server DB when we get:
SQL> CREATE DATABASE LINK infoteam1.sco.infoteam.co.uk CONNECT TO "sco.infoteam.co.uk/infoteam" IDENTIFIED BY "########" USING 'dg4msql';
Database link created.
SQL> select * from "systables"@infoteam1.sco.infoteam.co.uk;
select * from "systables"@infoteam1.sco.infoteam.co.uk
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:
[Oracle][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user
'sco.infoteam.co.uk/infoteam'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server
connection.[Oracle][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid connection string attribute
ORA-02063: preceding 2 lines from INFOTEAM1.SCO.INFOTEAM.CO.UK
The question is can we (and if so how)?) connect to the SQL Server using an NT Windows Authorised account?

Hi,
Please look at MOS note
ORA-28500: Generic connectivity using ODBC DSN over mapped drive fails [ID 105210.1]
