Emergency Help needed

Greetings
I have a 1.5GHZ Powerbook G4
I just installed virtual PC against my wishes and I installed Windows XP home - seems to be successful. But ..
I no longer have a windows laptop and I have installed a medical program with a treatment I must follow for 3 months 2 treatments a day. It works great on my PC but now I get an error window when I try to activate the program on my powerbook running the virtual pc with windows xp
The error message is in jibberish writing because the program was given to me in russian but all i can read is the word DIRECTX
I have installed 5 times directx9 yet i still keep reading same message
it is very interesting that when i right click on my computer it reads
686 MHZ Processor
294 MHZ
256MB RAM
Where is that info coming from? How can WinXp read the hardware in my Tiger OSX powerbook???? It is not possible so if you look at the specs - no wonder everyone is complaining about VIRTUAL PC being so slow.
The program that I need for treatments is also a 3D program and as I said I have tried to install DIRECT X 9 from microsoft and still fails to work
Can anyone help me. I am going to China in 3 weeks and I do not want to interrupt my treatments. Please someone tell me what is going on
Edward
Now I know why people complain that Virtual PC for Macs is slow and not worth it! But how can the specs appear as that when Windows cannot read what the Mac has as hardware.
I had changed the settings on Display properties from 16 bit to 32 bit - i will change back to 16 to see if my program will run
it is crucial to my trip and my treatments that i can solve this problem - i do not want to travel if it will stop me from focusing on my treatments each day on time

You can't run 3D software on Virtual PC, the emulated graphics card is not powerful enough.
The system specs you are reading are the emulated specifications of the virtual PC and are not your Mac specs.
Your only solution is to get a Windows laptop.

  • Emergency help needed re media manager

    Hi all,
    Hopefully somebody can help me with this.
    I am due to start an audio mix on a project for a client tomorrow. He currently has the FCP project on his Mac Pro but due to recording to a tascam portable recorder on set all his audio files are called audio1, audio2 etc. He has a folders on his drive with each days recordings so there are many folders which all contain files called audio1 etc.
    I asked him to put his picture lock sequence onto an external drive using media manager but it doesn't seem to able to handle the audio files since there are so many with the same name from different folders so the external now has only one file with each name where on the picture lock sequence there are many audio clips called audio1 for example.
    I hope this makes sense.
    Please post here if you can help me.
    Thanks in advance
    Michael

    If you have a media card in your BlackBerry then the easier way to transfer items to it is to just click on the My Computer icon and drag and drop them to the appropriate folder. Music to the \blackberry\music folder and so on. As for the problem with the Media manager, it should be remedied by installing the OS for your device to your computer.

  • KEYCHAINS EMERGENCY HELP NEEDED

    So this is a breach of my privacy I am trying to fix but don't know how. My former roommate (ex girlfriend) moved out a couple months ago. But I just found out shes able to access things through my keychain on her phone or computer? How is that?
    ie: She is accessing my iMessages on her iphone or computer and she has been able to access my facebook etc etc. Is there something I need to chage so che cant access anything anymore from where ever she is or is she able to remotely tap into my keychain? I'm lost. I dont want her to have access to anything anymore. It's really freaking me out and scary.
    Thank you

    Go a few steps further and change the password on all of your accounts like Facebook, Twitter, Banking Info basically anything you can think of.

  • HT1766 emergency help needed to recover deleted contacts from Iphone

    Here is the situtation that occured that resulted in deleting all the 500+ contacts in my iphone
    A couple of days ago, I went to the mobile phone store and bought an iphone 4s upgrade package. I have been using an iphone 3s for the late couple of years.
    recently I upgraded the software of the old iphone and received the icloud software and  backed up all the data to the cloud.
    Now during the upgrade to the iphone 4s the shop assistant set up the new phone and transfered the sim etc to the new phone, I was unaware that the new iphone was now a clone of my old iphone with all my old data and a live sync to the icloud and itunes etc.
    When I got home I decided that I would give the new phone to my wife, so I proceeded to delete all the data off the new phone, this involved manually deleting all 500+ contacts in the address book, bar a few close friends that my wife knows, to safe her reentering the data.
    What I did not know was that the phone was syncing to the icloud/itunes everytime i hit delete and deleted a contact from the icloud and also from my old iphone that I am still using, so now I have 2 x iphones with no contact data.
    I have lost 15years of accumulated business and personal contact info, 75% of which I have no way of recovering from other sources.
    My obvious questions is, is there any way of restoring my iphone's contact data from an earlier version of the the auto sync backup ie from 2 days ago ie the 18th June 2012 and not the sync'd backup from today or this evening?
    OR is my life lost for ever?
    can anyone help?
    Thanks and regards
    John

    Unless you backed up somewhere else before deleting the contacts and not since, i.e. iTunes on your computer, sorry but no.  The backups are overwritten each time there is changed data - old backups on iCloud aren't saved.
    There is no way to restore any data deleted from an iOS device if it isn't in an available backup.

  • Emergency Help need

    i want to calculate the sum of the average of the whole month having only days which contain entries(in a month).following query calculate the value by dividing the whole month.pls rectify the query and send.
    SELECT MON, QTY, (QTY/(LAST_DAY(MON)-MON)) AVG_QTY
    FROM
    (SELECT TRUNC(ABC_DATE,'MONTH') MON,
    SUM(NVL(ABC_MARKET_VALABC,0)+NVL(ABC_INT_ACCR,0)) QTY
    FROM POS
    GROUP BY TRUNC(ABC_DATE,'MONTH'))

    well,
    1) I am just said that i have a table which has date wise sum
    2) I pick the date wise sum and calculate the whole month
    3) Now I want to calculate the average of the whole sum in such a way that If January Month has 21 record (means 21 days entries are there) I divide this (21) to the QTY (1st line 3rd col of the following query).
    Following is the query for amendment.
    SELECT MON, QTY, (QTY/(LAST_DAY(MON)-MON)) AVG_QTY
    FROM
    (SELECT TRUNC(POS_DATE,'MONTH') MON,
    SUM(NVL(POS_MARKET_VAL_LCY,0)+NVL(POS_INT_ACCR_LCY,0)) QTY
    FROM POS
    GROUP BY TRUNC(POS_DATE,'MONTH'))
    I think there is no problem to understand now.

    i have the following tables(with data) as mentioned below

    384           S2      4           2           5           3
    ---------I actually designed the ABOVE table also like this
    3) a)COMBINATION
    COMB_ID(NUMBER) COMB_NAME(VARCHAR2)
    383           S1
    384           S2

    7               384          5
    8               384          3
    Business rule: a combination consists of a maximum of 4 subjects (must contain)
    and the user is less relevant to a COMB_NAME(name of combinations) but user need
    the subjects contained in combinations
    i need the following output
    COMB_ID COMB_NAME SUBJECT1 SUBJECT2      SUBJECT3      SUBJECT4
    383     S1     Biology Chemistry      Computer Science Physics
    384     S2     Chemistry Computer Science Mathematics Physics
    or even this is enough(what i actually needed)
    COMB_ID     subjects
    383           Biology,Chemistry,Computer Science,Physics
    384           Chemistry,Computer Science,Mathematics,Physics
    you can use any of the COMBINATION table(either (2) or (3))
    and i want to know
    1)which design is good in this case
    (i think SUB_ID1,SUB_ID2,SUB_ID3,SUB_ID4 is not a
    good method to link with same table but if 4 subjects only(and must) comes
    detail table is not neccessary )
    now i am achieving the result by program-coding in C# after getting the rows from oracle
    i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
    i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
    2)how it could be designed in any other way.
    any help/suggestion is welcome
    thanks for your time --Pradeesh

    Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
    SELECT C.COMB_ID
    , C.COMB_NAME
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
    FROM COMBINATION C;
    As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

  • Help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.But not sure that my len

    Hi all help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.
    But not sure that my lenses will work.
    I have a 170mm/ 500mm APO Sigma.
    A 10/20 ex  Sigma   HSM  IF.
    And a 180 APO Sigma Macro or do I have to scrap them and buy others.
    ALL Help will be greatly received. Yours  BRODIE

    In short, I love it. I was going to buy the 5DMark III. After playing with it for a while at my local Fry's store where they put 5DMII, 5DMIII and 6D next to each other, using the same 24-105L lens, I decided to get the 6D and pocket the different for lens later.
    I'm upgrading from the 30D. So I think you'll love it. It's a great camera. I have used 5DMII extensively before (borrowing from a close friend).
    Funny thing is at first I don't really care about the GPS and Wifi much. I thought they're just marketing-gimmick. But once you have it, it is actually really fun and helpful. For example, I can place the 6D on a long "monopod", then use the app on the phone to control the camera to get some unique perspective on some scenes. It's fun and great. GPS is also nice for travel guy like me.

  • Help needed! Raid degraded again!

    Hi!
    Help needed! I hava made bootable RAID with two S-ATAII 250Gb HDD and its not working! Every now and then at bootup I get a message RAID -> DEGRADED... Must be seventh time! Rebuild takes its own time!
    What am I doing wrong!
    T: Ekku
    K8N Neo4 Ultra
    AMD 64 4200+
    2 Gb RAM
    2 x 250 Gb HDD (Maxtor)
    nVidia RAID (in mb)
    P.S. I wery SORRY with my poor language!

    I'm going to blame the nVRAID because I've seen issues with it in the past. If your motherboard has another non-nVidia RAID solution, use that instead. Using the nVidia SATA ports as BASE or JBOD is fine and dandy but RAIDing always had issues. It's not even a driver issue I think it's just instability. Latest drivers and even boxed drivers never helped. Granted, some will report success with their rig. But on a professional level I've seen nForce issues on different motherboards and different hard drives that had RAID disaster stories.
    Good luck and if you don't have another RAID solution, my suggestion would be to buy a dedicated RAID controller card.

    NO NEED TO A WANKA !!
    I feel a bann comming up.
    Have you tryed Google ? really.. your question is inrelevant. No need to reply indeed.
    Why do you come here asking this question anyway ? is it becouse you have a MSI gfx card ? and the adapter has nothing to do with this ?
    You think you can come in here yelling.. thinking we have to put up with it and accept your style of posting. This is not a MSI tech center.. it's a user to user center.. Your question has nothing to do with MSI relavant things anyway's.
    Google = your friend.

  • Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i on Sun Solaris 8

    Hey,
    Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i EE on Sun Solaris 8. The problem I met was: we followed the installation guide from the documentation. And we selected the choice "install software only". After it was done successfully, we run Database Configuration Assistant utility to create a database instance. But finally it always tried to create the instance at the root directory ( / ) which doesn't have enough space and then failed. The case was that we have set the enviroment parameters: $ORACLE_BASE = /export/mydata, $ORACLE_HOME = /export/apps/oracle9i. That means it should be installed at /export/mydata, but it didn't. Any help or advice are welcome. Thanks.

    I have downloaded Oracle 11G R2 version from Windows and extracted it in Windows and copied it into DVD after extraction in two folders. Now I am mounting that DVD in Solaris 10 installed in my VMware . I made a new directory named as 'installation ' under /export/home/oracle and copied the folders from DVD to 'installation' folder. Now I am entering installation folder and try to do ./runInstaller as 'oracle ' user and getting the error mentioned before.
